Apr 19, 2007When i try to download torrents or stream videos, my PC suddenly makes a crackling noise and freezes my computer beyond anything i can do as the mouse will no longer function, the only way to get rid of this is to turn the computer off via the power switch.
Does anybody know a general solution to this or tell me a way i can find the errors that are causing this problem and give you feedback?
Sound - High Pitched Beeping Noise
Dec 6, 2007On the system startup, my speakers suddenly produced a high pitched beeping noise. I've tried using a different set of speakers, but the result was the same. I'm not sure what exactly is wrong, but I had recently installed a more updated video driver and a wireless keyboard/mouse. I've tried uninstalling both the video driver and the wireless set (switching back to the old keyboard and mouse), but there was still the beeping noise. Surprisingly, when I mute the master volume the beeping noise stops. Also, the noise applies only to the input speaker (the speaker which has the cable connecting to the computer) and not the other one. I am able to listen to music using the other speaker, but the volume is drastically lowered. My guess was that there was something interfering (such as the wireless mouse and keyboard) with the sound card(?), but since I have uninstalled them (now using again because it is obviously not the problem) and there were no changes, I have no idea what could possibly be wrong.

May 13, 2005I turned on my computer and everything was fine, but realized husband had unplugged the dsl last night due to possible incoming storms. So I replugged in the dsl and as usual when this happens have to reboot my computer to get it to realize its there. So I went to start ..shut down..restart and did it. And it never came back. After about 5 min of it just sitting there I went ahead and pushed in the restart button on the machine. It makes its usual start up noise and the lights all come on except now there is a strange clicking noise I do not recognize and the cd rom seems to hang a bit, then the lights go off (as usual) except for the power light. But nothing comes up on the screen and no sounds are to be heard from the speakers. I now shut it all down and let it sit for about 20 min then retry still nothing. So I open the case up and check all the wires and with a can of air blow away any dust.

Mar 26, 2008I am having a problem that just started about 2 days ago. My computer, XP home edn., will be working fine, and then I suddenly hear a little squeak coming from the computer, kinda like something being pulled over a pulley and then bang, the whole thing just freezes up on me.So I'll hold the power button to shut it down, start it back up again and sometimes it'll come right back up, like normal. Other times, it'll make that noise again during the start up and it'll just freeze at whatever screen it's at. I just took it in yesterday b/c at the start up screen it was saying something like cannot boot from CD. insert system CD when it was at the very start, saying how much memory and system, etc.The guy said something was just loose, fixed it, and then it worked fine. But it just started up again, with the whole squeak-freeze deal.

Computer Freezing And Beeping
Aug 9, 2007I've been away at University and have since come back and my parents are having some problems with one of the computers at home.Basically when using the computer Windows will just completely freeze up randomly, the mouse will stop moving, the keyboard will stop moving, and the clock will stop. As this happens, a noise comes from the computer which sounds the same as one of the noises when I turn the computer on, but it repeats a couple of times. It's a more mechanical whirring noise rather than an electronic beep or anything like that. It's very hard to explain - sort of like a build up of 'whirring-ness' and then a click (x I was wondering if this could be a hard drive problem for one - although I have done some diagnostics on the drive with SpeedFan and everything seems to look fine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedTurning Computer On And Beeping
Jun 3, 2005I've been having really bad computer troubles recently and really need some help, cause I've wracked my brain trying to think of possible solutions here.To give a bit of background:The computer in question is an AMD Athlon 1800+ that I've had for about 3 years now. It's not the most stellar computer, but I mainly use it to surf the web and play some low-end games nothing spectacular.Recently however it had started to reboot constantly, and eventually just power off and never come back on. I figured it was the power supply, so I purchased a new 400W one, installed it and everything was working great.Fast-forward a couple weeks later, and I started to hear a really odd noise coming from the computer. It sounded almost as if sparks were flying around inside, but I removed the case and checked what the problem was, and it seemed the CPU cooling fan was having some troubles, and eventually stopped working. So just today I went out and bought a new CPU cooling fan, installed it, and again, everything was working fine.
However, just tonight, the computer began to reboot randomly again, and now it is at the point where it will not turn on, and when I do power it on, it just idles and beeps constantly. They are fairly short beeps, but they continue on and on indefinitely. I read up on the beep codes and how they coordinate with the BIOS setting, but problem is I have no idea which BIOS setting I have, so I am not sure what could be the problem. To be safe, I began to unplug the cards one by one, seeing if any of them stopped the beeping, but to no avail.So I am at a total loss here Having just bought those two things recently and STILL having the computer act like a pile of garbage is disheartening to say the least, and I just hope someone may have an idea on what or how I could fix this.

The only problem remaining is now after about 15-20 mins of using the computer the desktop icons and taskbar start disapearing and re-appearing, starts slowly then constant flashing in and out accompanied by an error noise (its the same noise you hear if you press enter over and over again) that becomes constant too until the desktop is completely blank at which point I have to restart the computer.

Apr 1, 2008I have a random beeping noise coming from inside my computer. It happens daily, for no specific reason I can think of... it sometimes beeps when Im away from the computer.I say inside the computer, because I have the volume muted and I still hear it loud and clear, like a warning beep.I searched a few posts already, but cant seem to find a solution. Someone mentioned it might be the fan. Can someone be so kind to run me through the HOW TO turn off the Smart Fan thingy (hehehe...Im a beginner...I really dont know what Im talking about lol)I think Im suppose to go into BIOS and turn something off, but I dont even know how to do that. I follow instructions very well, so if you could talk me through it, I can give it a go without having to take it to someone.

This only happens on complete boots, not restarts, and I never hear the distortion again even if my PC is running for hours upon hours.Even weirder, I can seem to effect that distortion noise with my mouse, altering the sound by moving it around and rolling the mouse wheel.I also hear the distortion on the Welcome screen at a boot when I move my mouse cursor over the User Account icons. Move the cursor over an Icon, loud distortion noise, move it away no noise.
