The ID49C07u is Gateway's laptop first manufactured in 2010 with an Intel Core i3 processor and 14" display.

Why are my speakers emitting static?

The speakers of my laptop begin to emit a good amount of static whenever I play the volume at a moderate-high volume. When I use headphones, the audio is fine so it must be the speakers.

This problem is almost definitely a hardware issue, however you can try reinstalling the sound card driver found on Gateway's website: http://www.gateway.com/gw/en/US/content/.... If this doesn't work, you need to consider replacing the speakers or seeing if your laptop is still under the factory warranty.
