Hello,

It has a Realtek sound chip. That laptop has a mic input and headphone jack.

Hello. I would like to know what causes a sound on my computer like a door opening and then shutting. It happens almost every day and it is very annoying. Can I shut it off some how?

Can I shut it off some how?

Yes.
You first need to figure out what program is making that sound.
Check your social networking and instant messaging programs that have 'buddy lists' first.
The look in that program's options for Alerts or Sounds.
