HI ya Limey

try to locate the sound a lil closer even take the cover off

make sure the fan over the heatsink of your CPU is spinning, check the power supply fan is still spinning and any fans on your video cards - make sure nothing is hitting these fans

now if the sound is actually comming from your hard drive then that is bad news [saywhat] and I would suggest backing up everything and get another, once the hard drive is scratched you can not repair it and it becomes a bad sector a couple is okay in a hard drive but more than 2 or 3 and I would start to look for another before you use loose the lot for your hard drive don't forget to check the maker of it as you never know it may still be under manufacturers warranty (loads of people forget this).

I hope that the noise is just a cable hitting a fan but if it is causing your program to crash then I feel your pain [confused]
