    I got my new laptop some three weeks ago and at first everything was perfect. Now however, the laptop is making a rather loud sort of buzzing noise, constantly. I can't remember when it started but it's extremely annoying. Has anyone else experienced this and if so, do you have any ideas on how to make it stop?

    Is it a high pitched sound?

    I wouldn't call it high pitched, it's not a beeeeep, more like a whirring sound.

    other than the highpitched sounds there shouldn't be any other damn sounds at all,
