Is it time to admit defeat and buy a new PC

GunJack's suggestion that your PC contains fish seems somewhat fanciful and the noise they make is more of a flapping sound than a clunking sound.

I'm now on my laptop. I took everything apart earlier cleaned everything out inside the case, I cleaned out the processor heatsink the other day when it started messing about. The only fan in there is the one on the processor which has a speed controller on the front panel of the case. While I had the lid off I made sure everything was plugged in properly and all the cables were tight. I have also uninstalled a few things that didn't seem to be working right. I'll see what happens tomorrow. Still don't know what is clunking but it sounded like a disc drive but it seems to have stopped doing it. TBH the thing doesn't owe me anything I got the motherboard, processor, graphix cerd and some of the RAM off a mate for £30 about 4 years ago. Me tight.
Oh yea there are 2 other fans one in the PSU and another on the case, the chip set and the graphix card just have big heat sinks, there is room for 2 more case fans.Nothing to see here, move along.0 -
you could run it without the side panel, just to confirm if it's a heat issue.........Gettin' There, Wherever There is......

Well I don’t imagine the OP has been taking a dump in his computer.
I know Vista sucked, Ballmer’s mad and you Windows people are weird, but that’s taking it a bit far.
My bet is it’s honey. His bees have been getting in through the vents. Plays havoc with the hard drive; the fans blow it around everywhere. Seen it many times. Makes everything inside horribly sticky. Apple has an app to prevent this.Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance
and conscientious stupidity.Dr. Martin Luther King, Jnr.0 -

several things.....
1.(C)Rapport is a known issue, slows lots of computers down to a crawl/crashes/BSODs/etc. - get shut of it.
2. Ad-Aware is next tot useless, bin it.
3. MyWebSearch is known spyware, get shut if you can from add/remove programs and do a full Malwarebytes scan to pick up the rest of it.
4. torrents and other un-needed stuff running on startup - use CCleaner's Tools > Startup to disable them, like

Now it's had a good physical clean out, removed a couple of stray trojans that were on there it seems to be working OK, it hasn't crashed all morning with a game running on it, it shuts down and restarts OK without getting it's knickers in a twist. I checked the processor temp and it's settled at about 65C.Nothing to see here, move along.0
