if i leave my pc off for a little while like more than 3 hours and took it back on it makes a grinding/whinnning noise its an Antec 430W silent pure power and it wasnt the 90mm fan built into it and i dont think its the 80mm on it but im not too sure does anyone have any ideas?

Makes me wonder if there is a hard drive head grinding into a platter?

Sorry brain dead, if it was a hard drive head grinding on the platter you would be having more issues, but it could be a bearing in the hard drive. Try unplugging the hard drive then turn it on see if it still makes that noise.

PS's fan bearings going bad... most folks would just plan to buy a new PS asap.... a few folks here would take a shot at replacing the fan, but working with the PS -- even though unplugged -- can be dangerous as the capacitors hold strong charges for a loooonngg time, so you need to be real careful.

I didn't realize jailbait porn was worth that much.... Bad move, IMO, given Karp's reluctance to allow ads to interfere with the interface and the fact a lot of people use Tumblr in the same way...
