Sound on my laptop..

[Hiro]

is echoing..even with earphones in..
any help?

its a Realtek HD soundcard.

edit; just imagine you're stood in a huge empty room and all thats in there is a Hi-fi system playing music. it sounds like that would.

Have you restarted your laptop? Make sure no wires have come loose. Does your laptop have a built in micraphone? - if yes then make sure it is muted. Is your laptop under warrenty because if the problem consists I suggest you get it checked out.

I have restarted it (as I noticed it yesterday and I haven't been on it since 7pm last night). There aren't any wires that could possibly come loose unless I take the laptop apart and take a look. The microphone shouldn't affect the sound as I always use earphones (which are brand new) and it's the same with them in anyways. And I'm not sure when the warranty runs out.
