    My laptop has been four times at reparation lately, they have
    replaced the motherboard twice, but steel I have the same problem.
    Among other things the support people pointed, as a source of the
    problem, to a known "high-pitch, high frequency" noise. But in my case
    I'm quiet sure that the source of the problem is not that. As a
    confirmation of my assumption, the last time the laptop was at
    reparation, support people admitted that the noise is caused by the
    onboard Intel chipset and HP should be working on new drivers for it. According the
    support more or less all dv9099 should be affected by this problem,
    but I'm not quiet sure. I'm wondering if other owners are experiencing
    a similar problem, I would like contact some owner of a dv9099ea in
    order to see if it's not only me which is affected by this issue.
    The issue: Annoying noise coming from the area around the speakers,
    the noise is not constantly and it can be reproduced by changing the
    angle of the screen/monitor and changing the contrast (brightness) of the
    screen with fn+F7 / fn+F8. The noise disappears when switching the
    monitor to an external monitor with fn+F4.
