Computer..........HELP

yea...like a constant loading sound...but horrible and crunchy...like the hard drive working mega overtime!

if thats all the sound simon's hearing is then drives prob ok...cos if its just sound of the drive working extra hard...thats to be expected cos the pc's bein cained....

or if the sound is like a clicking noise (simon - is it?) then drives on way out..

(record the sound and post a link to it )

a hard disk making crunching noises aint normal. it's only a matter of time b4 it goes on it's arse. do u wanna risk losing your data? fuck that.

if the drives working 500% more than it should - theres a problem. you can try defraging the drive but if it's still doing it... you'll be on here in a few weeks saying "i'm on my mates computer, my computer won't boot it keeps coming up with a message like 'boot record can not be found' or 'invalid system disk'

hardware is so cheap nowadays, why fuck about risking it, causing yourself further problems...
