    Guys,
    I have this laptop for 6 months now and it was refurbished where i bought.

    the power brick makes strange clock ticking like noise, not a big deal, but I just need to know if it is normal.
    If you put your ear very close to it, you can hear a click like a hard drive sound, and when you unplug from the computer, the sound goes away.
    there are no problems with the computer, i heard it strangely when i woke up this morning.
    it was exactly like a clock ticking.

    what do you suggest? does anyone else have the problem?

    ASUS brand model: pa-1121-04 . 19v, 6.3A, it doesn't write the Watts. rev a01
