I have an HP dv 1040 laptop and I just recently got a new mother board put in it because I plugged it it to an outlet and heard a "pop" I would not turn on at all.
I got it back a while ago and about 2 hours of use and no problems it started making some buzzing noises. It sounds like I am getting some feedback from the hard drive but I am not sure. I took it apart to see if any speaker wires or hard drive was grounded out or wires exposed I didn't see anything that looked out of the ordinary.
Does any one know why this might happen?
When I turn it off and then let it sit for a while the sound doesn't happen right away when turned on but as soon as my computer is loaded and I open a program the humming / buzzing sound begins.

sounds like electrical noise from the HD. this is the phenomen like when you feel static on the TV while the vaccum is running. i suggest in replacing the speakers, adding a filtering curcuit to the speakers would probably void the warrnty and is hard without some soldering/electronics experience.

Sounds such as this often occurs when you are using your phone near the computer. Static noises is the term they used to describe such sound.

I would return it to the shop that replaced the MBoard immediately...something isn't right.
Laptops are not designed to be self-serviced.

I tried calling the place back to get it fixed but there is no answer and it was in Florida. I am located in Ohio. Everything works fine but the sound is unbearable. help.
