I bought Acer Aspire 6935G and is very satisfied with it, however one problem is bothering me:

Sometimes my speakers distort the sound coming from the computer, and it sounds AWFUL!
It can happen anytime, wheter I am listing to music or just browsing my files. (the click-sound gets distorted)

I've tried the following:
* Changed drivers
* 3 different OS (XP,Vista and W7)
* Reset to factory settings (Vista)

I've found some ways of fix the problem temporarly:
* Restart the machine
* Just ignore the bad sound, and countinue using it, and the distoreted sounds goes away after about 15 min
* Change sample rate, anyone would do

But the distortion just keeps coming back :/

If I connect headphones or a set of speakers when the distortion is present, I can't hear the AWFUL sound :na:

I've currently uinstalled all drivers from Realtek, and currently use the standard audio driver Windows installed afterwards. Now the distortion has stopped, but sadly I can't use 5.1 sound. Therefore I need to get the real drivers work.

I¨m suspecting it may be the subwoofer thats causes the problem?^^

Suggestions?

same problem here also with a 6935g...I think you're right about it being the subwoofer as that is what it sounds like to me. can't offer any solutions though I sometimes find that playing a few different things on youtube makes it correct itself. maybe it's an audio codec problem?? it does sound bloody awful though I agree!

I'm trying windows 7 now but can't get any drivers for launchmanager so can't use the cinedash controls - also can't get the a309/10 tvcard software to load properly but I don't want to go back to vista as it's so bad!

Ive now been using the standard audio driver that windows installs. It work good, and the problem is non-consistent:) So I'm certain that its a driver problem :(

Can't help you with the tv-card charliepie, put I got my Cinedash controls working in Windows 7:) Just download Launch Manager for Vista from Acer. Install WITH compability mode set to Vista :)
