I've "heard" this problem with a lot of Dell's - you'll have to call tech support and probably get replacement parts. We've found it's usually the fan but Dell has been replacing the motherboard & heat sink also.
Good luck!

If it is making a lot of Noise, then it could be a few different things.
By reading your question, I am going to assume that you are not computer savvy. So I will start with the basics.
Most likely, either your power supply, case or CPU fan is starting to fail. When the bearings get gunked up they start to make noise, noise that could sound like an engine I guess.
Take a look at where the sound is emanating from, if it is the very back of the case, by where the power cable plugs into the computer, then it is probably the power supply fan.
Your best bet would be to take it to someone who knows about computers and have them look at it.
