Hello,
I am recently new to Ubuntu, but I was told by my dearing friend of mine to come here to request aid. Recently I have bought a brand new Dell Pavalion laptop online, but I have encountered some problems with it right from the start.
There are 3 issues: 1.) There is a high pitch screeching noise (sounds like "WHREEEEEEEEE") that is coming from underneath the keyboard. The noise is consistent until I turn off the laptop. 2.) When I try to play music (to block out the screeching), I hear a continous "POP POP burrr POP POP" coming from underneath the keyboard, followed by a heavy grinding sound. This occurs on all sounds, as well. Finally, 3.) Sometimes the screen turns different shades of purple and blue, but then goes back to a normal color tone (which is green... or at least I think this is normal).
I have searched several other help forums to find an answer to what is going on, but my friend finally told me to come here. Due to the fact that there are several intelligent/tech savy people here, I am certain that you will all be able to help me. Now I'm no dummy, haha, but when it comes to computers, I seem to be out of my league. Besides figuring out what the issues are, I was wondering if I could manually fix this, and if so.. how and what tools do I need to do this project? I was also wondering if this could lead to warenty issues (meaning I wont get my money back), b/c oddly... I didnt have a warrenty in my box. The cable to the battery charger is fine, so I'm unsure of this is a barrety-related issue, but all your responses to this topic would be appreciated greatly.
Help me, Ubuntu, you're my only hope!
