    I have no clue why its making that noise.


    Also I am having problems with my internet with wireless. Theres 3 people that are connected to the internet in the house and usually I use to get like 40-80 ping and now my ping is outrageous. It started last week. I can't even play games or what not. I get alot of local only and limited connection. Also when I do the diagnose and repair I usually get DNS problems or something.

    err I want faster internet ~.~
