Since I have had this laptop the audio has always randomly turned to static. I am using Realtek High Deffinition audio, and Intel(R) Display Audio. (both show up under sound in device manager). I have tried uninstalling and both restating the computer multiple times. i have tried update the drivers both automatically and manually multiple times. NOTHING HAS FIXED THE PROBLEM!! I don't think it has to do with the drivers at all. the only way i have been able to get a temporary solution is to restart the computer. i don't now how to fix the problem and am hoping someone here can help. PLEASE.
