Very LOUD Fuzzy Noise/Sta

Almost everytime that I shutdown my computer for the night and turn it back on the next day I'm greeted with a VERY loud fuzzy/static audio. It happened whenever any kind of audio is playing. So for example the Windows XP start up music and key clicks. It's a very weird problem and I've tried both stable and beta drivers. Here is a short clip of what it sounds like.
Note: The volume is turned down because it's just too loud. Also thats a song playing.

Thanks for any help.

This can probably be reset by doing a SMC reset. Here is what to do on your iMac:
• Shut down the computer.
• Unplug the computer's power cord
• Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
• Release the power button.
• Attach the computers power cable.
• Press the power button to turn on the computer.
• Report back results to us.

  • What is causing the very Loud Fan noise everytime I use the computer? What is causing the Heat as well?  Please help

    Please Help!
    My computer has been making very LOUD fan noises. I know this cant be normal. How can I fix this issue?
    This has been going on for a while now. As soon as I turn on the computer....the noise starts.

    Go check out Activity Monitor on your Mac.  It will show you which programs are running, and how heavy their use of your CPU is.
    When mine does this, for some reason, I have a bunch of "Managed Clients" running at once.  I use Act. Mon. to shut them down, and my Mac runs normally.

  • Hp Pavillion dv7 - very loud fan noise (cracking)

    My HP Pavillion dv7 starts up with a veqry loud fan noise.
    It is still under warranty (hp care) tii 23/12/2011
    Is the fan broken or can i resolve the problem myself

    Hi,
    If the fan is making a lot more noise than usual and sounds as if it's cracking, this is very likely to be a mechanical issue.  By far the best suggestion I can make is that you contact HP straight away and arrange to have this repaired while the notebook is still under warranty.
    The telephone number to arrange this can be found on the relevant link below.
    If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
    If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

  • Macbook Pro Lid Making Very Loud Cracking Noises

    I recently got my Macbook Pro 13" screen replaced for a pixel defect. When I opened and closed my lid, the lid moved smoothly from either position.
    Now, it feels as if the lid has more resistance when I operate it. Worst of all, when it is at a 90 degree angle and I slowly retract it, the lid makes a very loud "crack" from the hinge. Could it be that the lid's screws are in too tightly?

  • Imac making loud fuzzy noise only 1 years old. Can someone suggest how to stop it??

    I have an iMac 2012 which today started making a loud fuzzy sound and the screen has now started flickering intermittently . I have checked the CPU usage and nothing is running more than about 8% so it can't be over heating, it is not hot either. Help!!

  • Very loud printing noise

    My HP J5780 suddenly is making a loud noise every time I print. It sounds like a machine gun. I recently reinstalled the printer drivers with Windows 7 a few weeks although it was fine until a few days ago.

    Hi, is your printer still within warranty?

  • 27in iMac very loud fan noise. 3hrs after setup and running the fan came on. Sounded like a jet taking off.

    Brand new fathers day gift. The unit is cool to the touch. Air being blown out of bottom is cool. Shut down unit was what I found to get it to shut off. That worked. I get up this morning and wake computer from sleeping and immediately fan comes on. I'm thinking I should take it back. 2 days old but the amount of updating it needed to do it was prolly built months ago.

    Tammy,
    You can do a SMC reset. BTW the port on the bottom is the air intake, the exhaust is on the back on the upper left. However I'd recommend immediately contacting Apple Care. The machine should be OK right out of the box. You can find the contact information in your country at AppleCare Contact Info.
    SMC RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
    Release the power button.
    Attach the computers power cable.
    Press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • Very loud fan (or other part?) noise in MacBook Pro

    Greetings!  My fan (I assume) has recently started making a very loud, horrible noise that sounds like a piece of plastic stuck in the spokes of a bike.  It's driving me crazy and making me a burden to be around me when I'm working...which is always.  Please help!  I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Perform a SMC reset:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
    If there is no change, open the MBP and examine it.  Look for dirt an debris, and if found, clean it out.  You will need a #00 Phillips driver.
    If still no success it may be that the fan is faulty and should be replaced.  Make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a free and definitive diagnosis.  It is not an expensive repair.
    Ciao.

  • Macbook has a very loud noise

    When I turn on my Macbook Pro it has a very loud whirring noise. The noise continues for the whole time the macbook is turned on. Sometimes it becomes a little quieter but always is so loud my kids complain about it. The macbook is 5 years old but had a new graphics card/chip 2 years ago. The noise started about 2 weeks ago.
    I took it to a genius at mac to check if the hard disc was failing and he couldnt diagnose any issue. Thought it might be the fans needed cleaning out.
    Anyone got any ideas?
    (I am constantly backing up in case the disc is about to fail)
    Thanks

    Yes, very likely, Ive seen endless clogged laptop and notebook fans ,......a lot of them were horrific
    Dust and fuzz residue caked onto the internal fan
    Dust bunnies and Fluffy’s fur
    Your Macbook’s cooling system, including fan and rear vents pull cool air in from the back and (in the case of the Macbook pro) also from the left ports bringing this air around the processor, GPU, and heat sync and blow it out the back, as such your Macbook acts like a little vacuum cleaner of the air around you. If you use your notebook in a dusty area or around a lot of pet fur, this can quickly, even under seemingly ideal clean rooms, accumulate inside your notebook especially on the fan blades reducing its capacity for cooling and in a worse case scenario seize your fan due to caked on dust on the fan blades. Avoid very dusty areas or places where, over the long term you know fuzz, fur, or even smoke can enter into your Macbook.
    Is it making a buzzing or scraping noise?
    If you only hear it in a quiet room, that is normal.
    noisy fan reasons:
    A: you notice it more in a quiet room (the typical case) which is normal, all is AOK
    B: fuzz and dust has caked onto the blades causing the fan hub to get off balance and make a buzzing sound.
    C: fan rotor is going bad and making a whirring or buzz noise (rare).
    D: Fan is spinning up due to excess heat from gaming, heavy graphics (typical, all is OK)
    A and D are normal
    B and C are not.
    Do you use it in a dusty area or where there is a lot of pet fuzz?   Laptop fans act like little vacuum cleaners and take in dust etc. from the ambient air around them.
    If B and C continue for a long time (B is just a cleaning), they eventually cause the fan to either seize and/or die.
    Good news, if that happens, and out of warranty, fan is a very cheap fix.
    Bad news, if you let the fan die and continue to run same, you can overheat your unit and cause unwanted damage.

  • Why does the MacBook Pro make a loud heat noise?

    So, when I was playing a game called "Modern Combat Domination" my MacBook Pro make a very loud heat noise? Does that mean I should stop playing the game? I worried. Thank You.

    That means your fan(s) sped up to dispose of the excess heat generated by playing the game. It's a sign that your machine is taking care of itself properly.

  • What it means loud fan noise?

    Hi there,
    I have a Imac G5 Rev2 and I read a lot of topics about loud fan noise. I bought an Imac about 4 months ago and the fan noise is a bit louder than when I just got it. What do all the users mean by "loud"? It is only once, when I was running the hardware test, that I heard my Imac did the "airplane" (very loud) fan noise. When I am using applications using a lot of CPU, I hear a louder fan noise but not the "airplane" noise.
    Then what is the most reliable program to check the temperature of the iMac G5?
    Which range of temperature is normal for the iMac?
    Thx in advance for ya replies....

    I have a Rev b just like you and light use the temp of the cpu is 65-68º C while the hard drive is about 53º C. This is the temp as I am using two browsers, with iTunes and MS word open and running.
    For a temp program you can try Temperature Monitor at this link:
    http://www.bresink.de/osx/TemperatureMonitor.html
    You can also try the very handy iStat Pro Widget (Of which the temps I gave you above came from). It has a lot of very useful data, from CPU to Memory usage, from CPU to Hard Drive temps---and even the speed of all three fans. You can find that here:

    Hope this helps.
