A couple of months ago I was was on the internet when suddenly I heard ticking sounds coming from the computer. Minutes later it froze up and after shutting it down it wouldn't allow me back on. I let it sit there for months without trying to turn it on because I thought it was officially dead. One night I decided to try my quick restore disks, which worked and the ticking was no longer there. Now two weeks after using it, it's doing the same thing again. I've tried quick restore but then the ticking starts again, stopping the whole restore process. Is there any way to fix this without paying an arm and a leg?
