Computer noises
Can somebody help me y my comp is making so much damn noises, Is it the Fan in the back or my harddrive and how can i tell which one is making the noises, help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it's driving me nuts
|
Open it up, and check to see if there are any cords loose in the fan. If not, the fan's wings may be hitting the fan rims. Have a good look at the fan, spin it around a few times.
It happened to me once, there was a cord stuck in the fan. |
ahh ic, thanx, but isn't the harddrive part of it too?
|
Grab the screw driver, and rip the thing apart. Check all the fans. I bet its just the cooling fan.
|
ok, thanx
|
Just remember to turn the computer off, and unplug the power cord. =)
|
Also, don't forget to stay grouded by keeping a part of your body touching a metal part of your case, especially if you're on carpet. Static electricity is a computer's worst enemy.
|
clean the dust off the fan
|
or could it be the beginning of a hard drive going out. they make noise like that mostly on boot up.
|
ahhi c.. how can i check?
|
my fan is so damn loud too
|
Get a bottle of oil or WD-40, take the sticker off the ball-bearing cover on the fan (the middle) and add 1, ONE drop of oil, or WD-40. Replace the sticker, spin the fan a few times in both directions, then plug it back in.
