I just received the computer, but I am wondering why it's noisy when running, especially when I plugin the earphones and hear the constant noise?

Sorry , I can't help you . I am a total ignoramus regarding computer technology . Please turn to the makers of these computers . It is my impression that they are very helpful . Sincerely , H.L.

Don't know because mine is not noisy. Maybe you should call the owner/manufacturer and ask. He is very helpful and nice to do business with.

Yup, pops right up. The problem I reported may lie with my laptop? it's weird it works after a full shutdown and not after that, I've not seen that before with any other device so I continue to suspect the headphone. Just my bad luck to get a problem child? Aside from that it sounds really good.

Mine isn't loud. I would not consider it normal. Contact the seller for an RMA.

I hear no such noise in mine, however, I always leave mine in standby mode. I suspect you have a noisy cooling fan.

I am not sure why...but it might be the timer. I love the system though. It sounds really good and I do not have any rpoblems with it.

I don't have any noise. I suspect the cable that connects the right to the left is not plugged in, faulty, or the Jack is loose. They should be clean.

The audio output of your laptop is probably higher than that of your portable devices, still, when you connect them to your portables you should check the volume. Mine sounds ok in any device I connect it to.

Sounds like a malfunction. Mine is completely silent. I would send it back.

NO. A friend had a different speakers from a different manufacture that when he hooked them up to his computer he had it made some noises. He moved the speakers a way from the computer it work excellent. Hope this works for you.

I have the EXACT same problem. I use them on my laptop but the first thing I noticed was the hiss. I was shockingly disappointing and tried the other headphone outlet but to the same effect. Its just not one bud, but both, so I'm guessing its not like a damage issue.I'm not a sound blaster and usually have my music playing kinda low so the hiss is always noticeable.Right now I'm contacting Sennheiser about the issue.

Be sure that the headphone really is plugged in all the way. Athough I purchased the Ubuntu version, the hardware is identical. I noticed that it requires a bit more force to plug in the headphone than I expected, so the first couple of times, I got no audio, because I wan't really plugged in.If you still get no audio, that may be a product defect. In that case, contact Amazon or ASUS for exchange or warranty.

I have this same problem. It's loud and I can't for the life of me figure out why it started or how to stop it. I'll have to buy a new machine (not this one).

It sounds like the computer is sleeping or hibernating. You can change your power settings to prevent this from happening if it bothers you.

"Loud snaps and pops when the computer re-boots" : I believe that is nothing to do with the speakers. I get that sound with any speakers with my computer. An Audio card with a noise filter might fix that sound.

I have been very pleased with my purchase. There is no loud noise when running. Maybe you should exchange. That doesn't sound normal.

I haven't noticed noise coming from the processor, though the keyboard is a bit noisy. Randomly, I will say that the battery life is not great, but I don't mind too much since it does charge quickly. Maybe 3 hours battery life, longer if you're just using loaded applications instead of Internet.

I do not find it to be noisy at all...when you plug it in, there is a startup noise similar to a computer starting...that is all. I love this machine!!!
