Speaker Problems - Help :(

So I'm having some problems with my speakers. When I close my laptop it makes a LOUD whistle sound intill the computer shutsdown. At first I wasn't sure what it was but after playing around and noticing it was coming from my speakers I muted the sound before closing the laptop and it did not do make the sound....

So now I'm sitting here tryin to figure out what the hell is going on...

any suggestions or links to the same problem?

Anyway to turn off the built-in Mic on a G74sx, I tryed disabling recording in control panel but the dam thing seems to still pick up sound. I think that these maybe the problem.

I don't know if the microphone is the problem, but you can disable it in its Properties window:

Did you attempt to enable microphone Noise Suppression in the Realtek HD Audio Manager?

While you are in Realtek HD Audio Manager, is Microphone Boost enabled? If so, try turning it off.

When you make a recording in Sound Recorder, is the sound clear?

Try going into the mixer and turn down the mic volume.

Still having issues. The mic seems to be on all the time, even when simply moving my laptop around the built-in mic picks up the sound of the laptop moving around. As stated before the worse part is when you close the laptop the load whistling sound coming from the speakers.

Disabling the Mic works, but I use my headset often when gaming so turning it on and off doesn't seem like a solution..

Having my headset plugged in disables the built-in mic and stops it from playing back all sound it picks up but thats not a solution....

Help?

Do you want your notebook to stay awake when the lid is closed or to sleep?

Doesn't matter, I believe it goes to sleep. It will take about 20sec before the whistling stops then you'll hear the fans turn off.

Anyone know if they have a service repair provider in the Milwaukee Area? This is one of many problems I've been having with this thing and it's only 30 days old (tigerdirect only accept 14day returns on laptops already tried)
