    My screen makes a lot of noise and it is driving me absolutely NUTS. Whenever I move or the screen wiggles it makes this clicking sound near the hinges. I have completely removed the bezel and looked for anything that might be the culprit. There is nothing! I am going mad because when I watch a movie or play games and simply move my arm I can hear the dreaded *click click CLICK*

    Has anyone else encountered this issue? Please and thanks.

    My LCD does flex a bit more than I would like, but it doesn't really creak or click. The right side of my display bezel always snaps off at the slightest provocation, but even that isn't very loud.

    Mine did that for a while. Now it seems to have stopped. Maybe it needs to be broken in.

    I hope so, lol. It's not really a problem, just annoying. :)
