Loud static noise during boot-up

[woodcider]

I have been experiencing noises upon boot-up. I'm getting a loud, brief static noise thru the speakers during the boot-up screen. It has been consistent for the past 3 days. I'm not experiencing any other audio problems.

I followed your instructions and I'm still experiencing a burst of static from the laptop speakers upon bootup. I think the hard drive is making a whining noise as well upon start up.
