    Only time I've heard an ear splitting sound from a puter was an hard drive which had been through a traumatic experience (my bro threw it on the floor) it worked...to a fashion but whined something horrible.

    I would assume the hard drive is faulty...prolly a bearing problem.

    Don't forget to let us all know how you got on.

    Acer agreed that it was a fault on the hard drive and I will get a refund as it's within 28 days.
    Now I have to decide if I'm getting another Acer or a different make!
    Thanks for all the advice so far.
    HELP?

    Nice to see I for one wasn't wrong.
    Don't buy Dell's or Tiny.
    Brother in law has a tiny - unremovable stuff on it.
    Various people not happy with dell's.
    :beer:
    :mad: If you are angry about something, let it be known....... :wall:
    :oIf I fail to thank you individually, I am sorry. Your advice was appreciated but may not have been 100% the result I was after.
