Hi everyone! Well, I don't know if i'm in the right forum category or not... so sorry in advance. I have a Dell Dimension XPS Gen 4 and it is making a really SUPER annoying high pitched sound from the back. I have no clue what the sound is coming from..... all i know is that it gets on my nerves!!! :mad: Anyways, does anyone know what this sound may be caused by? ......... or will I just have to live with it? Thanks!

Re: Annoying High Pitched Noise

Ok, I've taken a look at the computer and the noise seems to be coming from the two fans at the bottom of the tower that cool down the power supply. Any ideas? Thanks!
