    Hi,

    I have a 1month old FE770G and its starting to make a weird noise from time to time. Its kind of like a surge of something, not sure whether its the processor or the fan. It happens randomly and then quietens down after a minute or less. There is no effect on the performace, its just annoying and I am concerned it may get worse.

    Does anyone know what this could be? My friend has a Toshiba laptop that does a similar noise, but on a more regular basis.

    Thanks, and sorry for the vagueness.
