Thanks for all the suggestions so far. I opened the PM6500 and blew out the dust bunnies and took a look around. [In front too, I removed the front cover and snooped around. :-)
I don't think the noise is coming from the motherboard fan or the hard drive.....I think [based on the positions and where the sound is coming from].....I think it's the fan in the power supply. The tower itself is cold to the touch. Some blown air is coming out the back of the tower. The buzzing goes for awhile and then quits for awhile, clearing what dust bunnies I could did not change anything. Using applications or CD /floppy/zip dirves did not change the sound ... sometimes it buzzes and sometime it sputter buzzes. If it is the fan on the power supply...what to do....I think that part is located on the right side looking from the back...I did see a couple screws holding the back plate on for that section ...but also a electric hazzard sign... :-) Advice please? I never know which email will be my last email :-| Thanks for specifics again please, Gail -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
