help with new laptop speakers

hi all.

After looking around and reading reviews, i decided to purchase the acer swift 3 as my new laptop about a week ago. However a few days ago the speaker occasionally goes very static-y. I have tried just about every solution I can find online. I have re-installed the drivers, messed with setting in the control panel and so on. i believe it is a software issue as this happens even when i plug in headphones.  The only thing I haven't done is mess with the BIOS. its up to date, and quite honestly, I dont feel comfortable messing with it as i dont need any more paper weights. Has anyone experienced a similar problem? if so were you able to solve it yourself or did you have to contact acer? I dont have the box the laptop came in any more, so if i have to contact acer will they provide a box or will i have to makeshift my own?

warranty must cover your laptop, having the box or not won't change it.

Use latencymon to check any faulty drivers. Also try clean install Windows. If it doesn't work then RMA
