    My m1710 has recently started to make a strange buzzing sound when im in any 3D app.

    Its not loud but easy noted when fans are not running or on low.

    Is this normal or is it anything worth troubeling a tech over?

    Many thanks in advange for any answers.

    I think it is normal with any Dell. I have it on mine and I just received it. Ive heard other people talk about it but I dont think I have found a definite answer to this. Hopefully someone else can shed some light on this matter

    Check for mosquitos, bees, or flies in your computer.

    The noise that I am dealing with may possibly be different from what your dealing with, but just thought I would bring it up
