Len Sacchetti10/6/02 8:40 [EMAIL PROTECTED] It happens sometimes if a plug gets pulled out from the side accidentally. The sideways pressure can cause the solder joints on that outlet socket to either break or loosen up. Does it crackle or the sound get any better when you turn the plug around inside the outlet? They told me the only way to repair it was to replace the motherboard as it can't be resoldered. The other option was to go to a speaker that was a USB plug in, so I bought a set of Harmon Kardon iSticks, plugged them into the USB port, and haven't had the problem since. If your speaker is not a USB type speaker, you might see if anyone else there has one and plug it in and see if the noise is still there. If not, then the problem is probably located in the single prong plug outlet.
