Thermaltake P4 Spark7 A1545 buzzing/grumbling by Andrew Z Carpenter
Hi folks, Just put together a system and used a new-out-the-box Thermaltake Spark7 A1545. However, the fan makes a lot of noise, and I don't mean the sound of air whooshing. It's more of a buzzing or grumbling noise, like it's not spinning correctly, or is off kilter. It seems to be maintaining...

dead power supply caused by cpu? by Gil Theissen

The motherboard I've chosen is the ASUS A7N8X Deluxe, and it says to use PC3200? { I'll be getting a gig } But my...

Loud Rattling Roaring Sound on Startup by Michael Roback
Sometimes when I start up my PC, even on reboot, it sounds like a jet engine and starts to make a rattling sound. Then afer a while it dies down and I do not hear it. It can go a long time without making these sounds? Is this the fan going out or what?? This is a clone I built a few years ago.
