mx6453 buzz/noise in headphone while charging

Thread Starter 
so i've had my gateway MX6453 for about 2 1/2 years and ever since i got the thing i can hear noise or interference when i plug in headphones or my stereo in the headphone jack, but only when its charging, if i unplug my charger it stops.
i've read about other people with the same issue but no solution. im out of warranty so if it means opening it up and modding something on the mobo i can do it..
any ideas?

Tried different wall sockets? Tried using another power cord? Tried using another AC Adapter? Tried using another headset?

cheers ...

well i figured it out,
the buzz i heard was a ground loop when i had it connected to my stereo, i just found an adapter for my charger w/o ground and it works great now!

buzz i heard in headphones was because i had the system volume at 100% and music player volume at like 15%
