    Im facing a rather annoying "problem" :(

    To help you visualize wheres the irritating sound comes from place both of your hands on the laptop like when you are typing. Wheres the right hand (bellow your elbow) touches the laptop that spot makes a rather annoying sound when you push it down :p

    Its a rather small issue but sometimes when im not focusing on the screen i can hear it.

    Is there a way to fix/stop it from doing that sound ? :)

    I believe the graphics card sits under your hand on the right side. Could be it?

    Nah the graphic cards are in the back not in the front and the noise comes from the plastic not somewhere inside the laptop :p

    Its the plastic that covers the upper side of the laptop probably got deformed somewhere with all this heat lol :p

    ps. its half life AND house :D

    edit: Is there a way to remove the plastic that surrounds the laptop's keyboard ?
