My computer is making random noises. I KNOW it's not a dying fan, because they're like, familiar sounds and it's always different. Sometimes it's the AIM received message sound, sometimes it's the beginning of a song (I don't have ANY music on my computer... it's a new hard drive), sometimes it's a Windows system sound. I don't have any themes on, and I don't have any processes running that shouldn't be. What is going on?

have you ever moved your audio device or cables on the lower back of your laptop recently or added any new kit interior of sight? It seems such as you have become radio interference and the main elementary reason is your audio device are too on the fringe of the show screen and this is the audio device choosing up the interference no longer the laptop. This each and every each and every now and then happens in case you have tidied and bunched or wound up the cables or moved the audio device nearer to different electric powered kit. This additionally happens if different kit is moved nearer on your present equipments region, and do not forget approximately this interference might desire to be coming from the different ingredient of the wall as nicely. I used to take heed to sounds at 2 or 3 in the morning and the workstation replace into switched off, it became out it replace into the encompass sound speaker cabling and the voices have been the interior of sight Taxi business enterprise on the radio as they drove previous my domicile. in case you have become song it sounds like it rather is selecting up the two radio or television transmissions or in keeping with risk a video or DVD participant yet this could not be the reason, in elementary terms a symptom. try shifting your kit some bit, un-loop any speaker cables (even mouse and keyboard cables too) and spot in case you are able to narrow it down somewhat.

Man, I think your hard drive may be a little defected. New stuff are not perfect, you know. Your best bet is to open your computer, boot it up, and try to listen where the noise is coming from. If its not Fans, its either HDD or PSU
