ashy_larry Posted April 29, 2006 Ok so recently my computer has been emmitting a high pitched ringing / screeching sound it sounds like ringing you get in your ears. I have determined that its coming from the power supply or another part near it. This computer has been running fine for about 5 months with none of this screeching. Odd thing is it only appears when I turn the computer completley off, it might still be going when its on and I can't hear it with all the fans on but im not sure. The only way I can get rid of it is to unplug the powersupply or shut it off. So I would like to know if anyone has heard of this or has suffered from similiar computer symptoms, this is very annoying. And the computer still runs fine when its on. Thanks for any feedback Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cerberus42 Posted April 29, 2006 unless i am mistaken tha tmeans a cahrge is ebign built up in teh capacitors in the power supply if i were you i would RAM it, that is NOT a good sign Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
