my computer is making a chirping noise that is getting more frequent. it is not constant.

it sounds like a cricket is in the computer. is this a sign that something is going out? i ran my norton antivirus and i have no viruses. can i safely just ignore it?

To whom it may concern:

If you are hearing noises inside your computer it can be 2 things Either your harddrive making the noise Which means you may want to run defrag on it Please remember to back up any important files before doing it.

Or it might be one of your case fans going bad, try blowing it out with air and if that does not work you can easily replace it by buying the same sized fan in a local computer store.
