annoying noise in my monitor

<< < (2/4) > >>

ThyGuy:
That is frightening, but brilliant obvious solution.  :o

dizzy:
Annoying noises are usually fans going bad that need replacement. CPU, power supply, or the video card are the likely suspects.

My old computer used to sound like a coffee grinder at times.  :P

Actually, *DO* hit the computer. Percussive maintenance has an ancient and honorable tradition and can often resolve issues like loose contacts, misaligned fans, rattling parts, etc. A good thump is often what it needs to be fixed. And if it breaks, it needed to be replaced anyway.

This is how we fix things on RUSSIAN SPACE STATION!

Giggy:
to be truthful its not rattling its just like one of those fan noises, next time I'll leave it to be.
I might get the fans replaced sometime later, I haven't got the money to replace things right now.
Stupid fans

miros:
Fans are only like $10.  You might want to look at it and see if it's full of dust and crud.   If so, turn off the puter and pick some of it out through the grill.  Shouldn't even need to open the case.
