Hello,

A strange problem started happening 2 days ago. When I first boot up my computer, it makes sounds like the fans are starting to die. It stops after a few minutes. The problem though, is that I checked the fans, and they all seem fine. This is really bugging me and I would like to get it fixed. Has anyone heard of anything like this?

Thanks


My system:
Athlon 700
Microstar MB
256 megs ram
Geforce ddr
SB Live

first, find what is causing the noise. Probably a fan. All you have to do is replace the fan. only thing that makes noise in a computer is a motor (as they are only moving parts). So most likely it's a fan (probably PowerSupply fan) or it could be a hard drive or Cd rom. but first thing u need to do is pin point the source of sound.
