Freezing and Buzzing

Thanks to everyone for trying to help me figure it out, I am shipping it back to the manufacturer to see if they can fix it.

Hello.

I'm new here and know i shouldnt post on things that are 3 months old, but i have this exact same setup and exact same problem with my laptop, but mine is no longer under warranty and i would rather throw it out the window than pay someone to fix it.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem is/how to solve it?

ive reinstalled the drivers as well as reinstalled windows, and this problem did not start until less than a week ago. i have had the laptop for around a year and a half.

Thanks

Ran both of those, no luck. My laptop works fine in general, it even plays Starcraft 2 with no problems, but ANY time I try to watch a video, the entire screen will freeze and a loud buzzing sound will persist for a few seconds (30 seconds at most) before it corrects itself. This is a very recent development, and i have checked and double checked that all of my drivers are up to date.

Thanks

unfortunately there is not.

the strange thing about this is that my graphics and sound work flawlessly when watching DVDs or when playing memory-heavy online games, but any time i try to watch streaming video online VIA sites like netflix, youtube, or hbogo, i encounter this issue of video stopping and sound becoming incredibly distorted.

Does anyone have any other ideas what this might be?

P.S. I do appreciate the suggestions you've made so far, I'm just getting frustrated because I can't figure out what caused this or how to fix it

I had a similar issue on an emachines e525 notebook. I resolved it by pulling and reseating the video card.

I've had this problem with my (out of warranty) Toshiba for over a year now. It's a freaky noise, and the OS just locks up.

It burps sometimes with audio conversions, but has only locked up when I watch YouTube.
