    Hey,

    I've noticed a problem with my new Vaio Z :)(), it was while I was listening to some music. Suddenly music began to stutter and sound really tinny, also windows stuttered and sounded tinny. After that I rebooted the laptop and suddenly the sound was totally gone. The mixer of Windows 7 did show that there was sound activity. I unplugged my earbuds but that didn't fix it either. I plugged them in again and that fixed it(temporarily). I was just wondering, are these driver problems or could it be that the (onboard) soundcard is defect.

    edit: I do think the laptop still have these problems but a lot less.
