ermmm...dumb question....

hehehe....
why do i hear my psu switching on and off?
like, i'm just sitting here f00kin around on the web, or whatever,
and i hear it switch on and off, but the pc keeps goin....
no shutdown or anything, i just hear that switch....
like the sound it makes when i shut down the pc...

is it possessed?

so, why's it do that?

Maybe a fan or your hard disk is making noise?

I also get quite a loud clicking noise every now and then???
Weird, never have managed to work out what it is?
I don't think it's my hard drive.

nah...
its the switching sound you hear when you shut down, completely,
when everything finally powers down and then you hear your PSU click off
thats the sound its makin (not all the time, just evey once in a while)

damn i wish i had a mic, i would record it

[lynx]

Apart from the fan stopping (which would be an absence of noise), the PSU does not make any noise when it shuts down. On the other hand, as indicated by VB, the HD most certainly does make a noise as it brakes the disk when shutting down.

well...VB didnt exactly SAY that, but....

so i got some bad disc brakes eh?
damn midas fkd me again!

hehe....ok seriously now....
i always thought that was the power supply shutting down,
cause its after everything has powered off...
and i certainly dont wanna think that my HDD is braking during runtime...
that cant be good can it?

Time to make some backups.

Beep beep beep.

Maybe it's drum brakes.
