My laptop continues to make these odd noises. They are sort of like a beeping and/or grinding noise.
I thought it was the hard drive, but after getting it checked under warranty I was told that the hard drive was fine. My friend recommended I turn off the internal PC speaker. Well, apart from not knowing how to do that, it doesn't really solve the problem it only stops me from noticing it it.
It occurs more often the longer my laptop is on, and it usually happens when I ask the laptop to do something like change between open windows or scroll up or down pages.
Is there software around that I can use to find out where any problems lie? I should probably test the RAM as I installed additional memory AFTER I bought the laptop. Any ideas/tips?
