ACER ASPIRE 3610 HIGH PITCHED SOUND
« on: February 03, 2007, 02:09:13 PM »
Can anyone advise why i seem to have high pitched sound coming out of my laptop speakers?
All music and sounds are really high and i can't figure out how to make it back to normal. I havent altered any settings.

Thanks
Kelly

I run on XP home, with light use on my laptop.
I have an iPod and regularly update it using iTunes. I download quite a lot of music to it.
Basically, the sound when i play a song on iTunes, or even the notifications on Windows Messenger sound very high pitched- like the Chipmunks!
Need any more info let me know.
Thanks

I downloaded it and unzipped it and at the bottom left is a icon
That looks like a monitor and an open box with CD displayed.
It reads Setup.exe.Try that.

Are you sure this high pitch is from the speakers and not a hardware component in the laptop itself ? ?

That worked! thanks problem solved.

Now, i have another queirie for you....

Before xmas i had to send my laptop back to Acer for fixing the hinges as it had started to crack on the right side. As it was under warranty, they replaced the laptop lid and sent it back to me free of charge.

Now, about 2 weeks later, a green line appeared on the LCD screen. It is all the way through my screen vertically, right of the middle.

Afer looking up on the net for hours on end, i thought that is was a dead/stuck pixel. Now as i was out of warranty, i knew that it was going to cost me, whatever the problem. I tried all the remedies going for getting rid of the stuck pixel- rubbing with cloth/flashing screen programs etc etc. Nothing works. I was under the impression that i would have to deal with it for ever, and having only had my laptop fot just over a year, you can imagine how upset i was.

Then, i noticed that if i bring the lid towards me, the line flashes and seems to go away. But when left still, it remains there. It is so annoying!

So, i rang acer, with the hope that maybe there is a loose connection after the new lid was fitted- i was told 'it sounds as if its a techncal internal problem, you will have to send it back for £x and pay £x for any work and £x for any parts needed.'

Anybody heard of this before, or know anything about it?

Would appreciate any help

Acer didn't do the job correct and should finish the repair.

You should call them back with the information on the warranty
 
repair they just did.

Agreed. It's probably just the display ribbon connector that got pinched...

The squeaky wheel gets all the grease...mention that you are a member of one of the largest user Forums on the planet and might volunteer a unsatisfactory response to your current dilemna and they just might pay attention...
