We had a bad storm here Friday, alot of lightning and wind. Could that have affected only the audio? Otherwise, everything is working fine. Yes the volume on the speakers is turned up. I really don't know anything about computers so try to not be too technical. Thanks

My comp takes like 10 minutes to start up after login after i reformatted it due to virus infection. And when I'm playing a song and opening a software, the song will either stop a few miliseconds or becomes draggy. Please help :D !

Below is a link to circuit city's website. Is this a good deal, $549.99 for this laptop with no mail-in rebates? The only thng I am concerned about is that the processor only has 512k of L2 cache.

Here is the link

How can I deal with that - I'mjust a beginner and my knowledge is limited in this area. I run the diagnostic as advised by Spyke because my screen shows three thin vertical lines.
