On my Satellite seems strange rattling type noise

I've had this laptop for a year and a half now, and it never did this before noise. I turned it on this morning, and a strange guy clicking noise began.
It does not constantly noise, just for a few seconds every few minutes... looks like it's from the fan, but I'm not sure.
If anyone has had this problem or knows what it could be?

Thank you!

Hello

This noise can be caused by the HARD drive? Please shows the led HARD drive activity and check if the noise occurs when HDD led is on.

  • C50-A-1DV satellite makes strange static/buzzing noise

    My brand new toshiba laptop is constantly producing a strange humming/static noise that seems to come from the fan.

    I don't know if this is the case with all these models but it's pretty boring and I fear that something could be wrong with the laptop.

    Please can someone help me on this one?
    What can be the cause of the strange noise?

    As I said it seems to come from the fan, but I'm not 100% sure.

    Have you noticed this buzzing/static noise while turning heavy fan?

    For me it of very difficult to tell if it s a good fan noise or unusual noises that may be related to problems of cooling module.

    On the other hand, you are not sure if the noise comes from the fan, so I think we are groping in the dark to 100%

    From my point of view of the few the laptop is new and if you don't know if there is a hardware problem, you should ask a favor for the engineer and check.

    Mate sorry but at this point, I have no other 'solution' for you :(

  • Satellite C670 - Strange "popping" noise

    Hello

    I just got a Satellite C670. Overall, I'm happy with it, but it makes a strange noise 'dry' every 5 minutes or so.

    It seems to come from the right under the keypad.
    It doesn't seem to affect performance.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Maybe it's a noise coming from the HARD drive.
    Sometimes I hear a similar sound on my laptop Toshiba-No.
    It appears since the upgrade of the HARD drive
    Usually it s nothing serious so I think that you have no need to be afraid

  • Satellite L20: Strange noise from heat sink when the power adapter is purchased

    Hello

    I own a Satellite L20 laptop and when I take the power cord out of my L20 and power to the battery on a strange sound high tone appears when I put my ear on the heat sink and can be heard normally.

    It is never used to do this.
    Any ideas?

    I don't know if you can hear the sound, as I do, when to do as you described, but this noise is coming from the CPU, when your phone is inactive or sous-travaille.

    Have it on my computer Toshiba no as well and everything I read that there is nothing to worry about and normally, you does not recognize.

  • Satellite A30: strange loud noise from speaker & headphone

    Hi guys,.

    I bought this laptop some time ago (3-4 months). Don't worked fine, no problems at all. Used VOIP (Skype), etc.

    Then I started having strange noises of frying (speaker and headphone).

    And now - after a month or two, I started having this problem - I can not record voices.
    This laptop isn't microphone with microphone. tested the microphone with another laptop, it works fine.

    Reinstall the driver did not help. :(

    Anyone any idea?

    THX!

    * @ matt13 *.
    If the technicians have tested this laptop and didn t find any abnormality of speaker then everything seems to be ok.
    You said you play bad music. I think you mean bad quality music.
    Then I n t wonder some frying noise seems to play this kind of music.

    *@bzsolt*
    I recommend reinstall the operating system, because I noticed a similar problem on my laptop and after a fresh install, everything was ok.

  • My Macbook pro does strange rattling when I watch movies on Amazon using the Opera browser.  There also seems to be hot.  What is c?

    My Macbook Pro does the rattling when I'm streaming videos on Amazon using the Opera browser.  There also seems to be hot.  How can I fix it?  It's the browser?

    It is normal for it to become hot streaming videos. It is not the browser, but you can test by using a different browser. In regards clicking sounds that could be a hard drive (if your model has one) or a fan. If there's something to fix it should be taken for repair. You can make an appointment at the Apple Store - Genius Bar store.

  • Satellite L650 - 10 M product noise rattling sound with delay

    My laptop often produced a noise of rattling sound (on the speaker or the headphones) of any output device audio with a delay of 2 to 3 sec. I don't have this problem all the time, but could not definitely say any time. This problem occurs even when I m running any applications like media player. But during this delay I ve noticed that the hard drive turns at full speed like disk hard led light in my laptop shows. I also noticed that this time varies from time to time sometimes 1 sec sometimes up to 7 sec. I fear that this could be a hardware problem. My laptops warranty ends in this month of July if this problem can be retrieved by warranty, how to explain the problem to the service provider. I have no evidence to produce service provider .only possibility is by recording the incident but that's impossible because as I said no one can expect this problem to a very special moment.

    I tried to reinstall my windows using the recovery media, but I still have the same problem.
    I tried to run memtest and it say s no problem or mistake was there.
    I tried to run the scan disk and Defrag, but there is no error found.

    Before 6 months, I had the same problem but one day it stood for a long period of rattling noise and eventually lead to a blue screen and which marks the end of my disk.at this instance I tried to re install windows using the disc of recovery, but at this time there, an error came out saying disc problem for raid 0 also I can't even connect to my laptop to this time and strucks to with a black screen.i took my laptop for service provider and got my hard drive replaced. Now with the new drive hard the problem still persists.

    How to explain the problem to the service provider?
    suggestions please

    Hey Buddy,

    If you run the version preinstalled Windows with all the drivers and Toshiba tools, you should check the utility disk protection tool. I had a similar problem during playback of music and videos, the laptop freezes for 1 or 2 seconds and caused by this tool because disk head has been moved to the safe position.

    You can change the sensitivity of this tool and I chose the lowest value that does not resolve the problem :)

    Hi Mr Hardcore :D

    Well, it seems to be a hardware malfunction, but I have no idea what could be the trigger. Maybe this article can help you:

  • Satellite L875 - 12 p - clicking noise

    I used the Satellite L875 - 12 p for about a month.

    Since last week, I start noticing clicking noise occurs randomly between the right corner of the mouse touch pad. It's quite strange because this laptop is quite new.

    What should I do to fix this?

    This rattling noise can be produced by the hard drive. Look at him carefully the next few days and if it get worse the closer contact of Toshiba service provider and ask for help. In the worst cases they replace HDD, free of course.

    If you have some important data stored on the HARD drive, from time to time make backups.

  • Satellite C660-174 - rattling under warranty?

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660-174 and it vibrates in the corner near the CD drive, as if something is loose.

    I wonder if I should send it the laptop back to be repaired under warranty or if there is a way to solve the problem myself?

    Thank you

  • Satellite L670 started making funny noises

    Hello

    I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L670.
    I noticed it has started making noises.

    First of all, it makes a noise as if a dvd / cd in the drive but nothings been put in the drive and the drive is empty.
    And second, I was on youtube and it makes a weird noise like static, I he did while I was on youtube and also when I'm browsing the internet, thought I would ask here for advice before I send.

    Any advice would really be welcome

    Hello

    With regard to the problem of noise WEIRD;
    My drive does not spin if no disc has been inserted.
    So if this will happen again and will not stop, so I recommend asking an ASP technician for the verification of the material eventually the STRANGE should be replaced then

    About static noise.
    I'm not very well what you mean, but it would be interesting to know if you notice this m ring all the time or only the navigation in internet.
    Please check the sound is coming from

    In addition, you can try to update the audio driver too.

    Also turn off the microphone in order to check if the sound is not completed as described here

  • Satellite P750-11W - two disruptive noises

    Hi all
    I recently bought a Satellite P750-11W. The problem is * two noises * make this laptop.

    Without a/c, on the one hand, there is a static * whistle sound *, the other a * buzzing noise * that noise when scrolling upward or down on a Web site for example. I'm sure that's not the HARD drive. On current alternative, the only noise which persists is the buzz, but it seems smaller.

    To clarify what I recorder the two sounds:
    1. [whistle Sound | http://snd.sc/p49i2R]
    2. [hum | http://snd.sc/oQKnk9]

    Anyone with the same problem? Is this normal?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Buddy,

    > Is this normal?
    Do you think that it of normal? If this is not the case, what do you do?

    I put t think that it of normal and in my opinion it shouldn't t happen on a brand new model of laptop. Usually the only noise you'll hear on the computer is the fan and probably the HARD drive a little more but all that s.

    In this case, you can do nothing and nobody here can help you because it s just a user forum of users and this virtual path it of not possible to solve this problem. You need local assistance service authorized in your country. Just talk about what you can do with guys. Generally speaking, there s no problem because if she s in respect of repair material guaranteed valid would not cost anything for you.

    On the Web from Toshiba site, I found a list of all the FSA:
