Realtek audio speakers crackling..

I'm an XP user, so my solutions are based on that operating system.

Definitely a software issue, unless you dropped your laptop recently before this all happened, then I'd say hardware issue, and good luck fixing that.

If you have all the software for your computer (restore discs, etc..), then the first thing I'd do is REMOVE ALL of your audio devices and Skype under "Control Panel"/"Add Remove Programs", and/or "Device Manager".

Then reboot and reinstall everything you just deleted, and finally, go online and update everything as well.

Thats likely to solve your issues, if it's not a hardware problem.

this is also happening to me, and i am also using a Realtek. there is a rattling sound inside the laptop, like a static charge of electricity. can someone help me about this?
