I need help from the Tech department.

My friend, she has the Acer Aspire 5920. She's complaining of her laptop making weird laser like noises.

Anyone know why or where this sound is coming from? 

EDIT: Her laptop is now lagging, and apparently lights for the media player, which are on the laptop are blinking when she types.

probably hard disk
or just go to shop and check there before it gone worst

I live in Australia. Taking it down to a shop is gonna burn a massive hole in my pocket, just for some dimbulb to tell me " Yea, somethings wrong".

Hence why I'm here.

I'm gonna get her to check her hard disk with a program I know. Thanks for the suggestion.

Should of posted in OT.  ;Da

But yeah.  Sounds like hard drive or some other internal component.

Have you tried Acer's Support site?

Lol. Probably. Not an OT fan.

I'll prompt her to do it. Thanks for the help.
