Is this a serious problem of impending doom or just a quirk!?? I really need to know. I backed up some stuff last night and have to do more..Please resond if you know or have similar problems.
Thanks, Lynn
The problem, Lynn, I think is that no one is quite sure exactly what noise you're describing. it could be a number of things:
1: A squealing HDD bearing. Bad, means incipient failure of the system.
2: The internal fan coming on. Could be bad, indicating the system is overheating more, or it could be it's summer, and hotter, or you've moved to an environment where the noise is more audible.
3: Normal HDD noise, but you've moved to an environment where it's more audible (or something else in your environment has changed, a new, quieter room fan or air conditioner, or a loud external drive is now off, things like that)
4: Odd audio feedback or cross-signals from something, meaning the noises are coming out of your speakers. Is your mike on?
5: You've accidentally (or vis corrupted preferences) turned the modem sound on all the time.
When does the sound occur?
Does anything make it change?
What part of your powerbook is it coming from?
