    Hard to really tell.

    Best to re-install the laptop using the recovery discs (burn them first!) and see if that fixes your problem.

    well today it happened again and again while using winamp.. so it's not GEAR software driver... I remember swaping some sound drivers right after buyin laptop but WMP, JetAudio, web pages, generally everything connected with sound works fine.. just those two cases yesterday and today while using winamp.. could it really be sound driver error? is winamp using some advanced settings of sound driver that can cause that?

    cheers and thx for replies!
