Although coincidently right when you upgrade to Win 7? Try listening on headphones to see if it's an interface problem. There is no difference between Win 7 and Vista in terms of the Audio driver support. They both use the new abstract implementation method.

Try going into the speaker properties (Control Panel -> Sound -> Properties) then the Advanced tab, and make sure the default format is not 192000 Hz, I know that causes static sometimes on speakers.

If the above resolutions doesnt work for you... I recommend shooting the speakers with a Glock!

On the first install of Win7 (when the drives weren't formatted properly and I used 32-bit...*), when headphones were plugged in the sound would play out of both the speakers and the headphones. (wtf, mang)
This time around, sound just continues to go through the speakers and nothing goes through the headphones.

*Must have been sleep-deprived or something 'cause I wasn't sure if the 2.4 GHz CPU could handle 64-bit, and also because the laptop was originally fitted with 32-bit Vista. *shakes head*

Next on the to-do list. Thanks.
~2nd edit: Negative, it's at 16-bit, 44100 Hz (CD Quality).
