[QUOTE="Supergumby5000, post: 2602104, member: 563237"] Okay its starting to tick me off so im going to do something about it. I recently built this computer, me and a computer guru buddy of mine anyways, and i have been having issues with what i THINK is the hard drive or drives. First off, i get a clicking sound coming from the hard drive/drives or the area around them. It used to be frequently, now its ussually just at shutdown. It still does it every once in a while by itself tho, ussually two weird clicking sounds back to back, loud enough to easily notice. Also, every once in a while, my computer shuts windows down and blue screens on me. Its happened three times in about two months now. The blue screen talks about checking to see if hardware is installed right (which i know it is) and to make sure everything is updated ( which i believe is, and im sure that wouldnt cause a "clicking" sound) I am guessing i might have to RMA the drive/drives, but if its causing me to bluescreen, wouldnt it just be the main hard drive? Does anyone have any ideas for me? all i use my second hard drive for is music and movie storage.
