Using Chrome : Fuzzy Noise / Crackle

[Twitty]

I'm on my HP laptop and when i use chrome my noise is fuzzy and crackly and just unbearable

I tested it and the sound is perfect when i close chrome. but then when i opened it back up it was bad :'(

EDIT: Having this same problem using internet explorer 9

EDIT: It seems it happens if i do anything stressful to the computer

Twitty,
Try putting a music CD or you tube and see if your speakers are malfunctioning.

Does the problem occur just when browsing or could if be your laptop speaker's going bad?

It happens when just browsing or really doing anything i think because i exited out of chrome completely, played some music and it was fine. when i clciked chrome it just totally crackled up and came to a point where i had to turn it off..

it also happens if i do something else i think because it happens a little bit if i just drag the corners of itunes to make it bigger :/

edit: just not as bad. maybe just a little bit of pop

Sounds like your sound driver is not doing so well, failing any time there is any significant load on your system. Might try figuring out what sound device you have and downloading the official driver from the manufactuerers website...

 

[The Howling Wolves]

How about trying another browser, Firefox, Opera, or whatever to see if it happens there?
How are you hooked up to the internet? Maybe a bad cable or connection problem. IMHO

I tried Opera. The same thing happens but its less extreme. At some points its actually perfect. but if i go to a link or new tab it happens. it could just be because chrome is taking a lot more memory? idk

It may be a Wireless Connection problem - Some Speakers pick up interference between Wireless connections - Does this happen whenever you use your Wi-Fi?

Have you tried surfing with an Ethernet Cable plugged in? If so do you recieve the Same issue?


Edit: I notrious interference is with Mobile Phones and older speakers producing beeping sounds

Many Thanks,
Josh

Does this happen with Headphones?

Does this happen with Headphones?

Yes and the speakers.

I've realized that it gets worse if the page is loading or sometihng.

Well the drivers are probably just the basic built in W7 drivers.

You need to find out what kind of audio chip you have. From the user manual or looking up your computer model on line and looking at the specs etc. Then once you have the manufacturer and model number you can go to the manufacturers website and look for the REAL driver.

Reboot and then check to see if you still have that crackling noise.
Post back if more help needed.

Do you have a built in WIFI or a USB WIFI connector?
If USB try another location on the laptop.
