Is the noise coming from the fans?
Hi,
I have a strange problem with my desktop PC. When I start the PC, it makes a lot of noise till Windows is loading. Once I start work on Windows, within 5-10 minutes, the noise goes. Never does it get noisy again, even when the PC is being used continously for several hours ( doing basic work like browsing, email, working on Microsoft Office).
I'm at a fail why this is happening. I've tried cleaning the fans, but to no avail. Please help me.
My system specs are
Processor - Intel Core i3 540 @ 3.07GHz Clarkdale 32nm Technology
Motherboard - Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. H55M-S2 (Socket 1156)
OS - Windows 7 ultimate - 64 bit
Hard Drive - 977GB Seagate ST31000524AS ATA Device (SATA)
RAM - 2.00 GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 666MHz (9-9-9-24)

from what I understand of hardware inside the PC, its the fan making the noise.
is there anything I can do to detect the problem? I'm a newbie to solving hardware issues.
May be It is a heating problem. Install CPUID HWmonitor and check the Temp. Post the results here.

It is normal. That access noise in the beginning, cause the drivers have not kicked in, and fans whirr at full RPM.
No worries.

I think it's a BIOS setting, the fans have been set to an aggressive mode or something. Load default settings for your BIOS and report back.
Sorry guys, got tied up with work. Thanks a lot for your replies.
