    The noice you hear is called CPU whine. It seems like many people have this problem w/ M1330, and there are some solutions - just search the forum on CPU whine.

    Couldn't help w/ XP drivers. GL.

    No there aren't, not unless you get very lucky. RM Clock freezes your computer constantly, and the bluetooth fix only works in reducing it for some. Mine doesn't even have a bluetooth option in device manager (although my 1330 has bluetooth). Ask for a replacement, I did the same, and its still underway to me.

    I live in Dubai and bought an XPS 1330 two months ago. Whinning fan noise staright out of box. Dell replaced the laptop (reluctantly), same problem. They then replaced motherboard and fan assembly, same problem. They then promised a refund, a month ago - nothing yet. Laptop is sitting in its box at home. Dell=absolute rubbish. Never again.
