| 1134704 | 2010-09-04 23:21:00 | Sure there's not a bomb in there? Computer clocks are fully solid state and don't tick.. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1134705 | 2010-09-04 23:52:00 | Ticking? The only thing that is likely to be is imminent hard drive failure. or the PC is over heating and the ticking is the PC speaker sending a warning, although with mine it was more like a beep than a tick. |

| 1134706 | 2010-09-05 00:08:00 | Does it sound like this?, www.entertonement.com time to worry! Seriously though, see if you can identify/isolate the source (internal/external speaker/s, inside case (hard drives/optical drive/fans/power supply unit/motherboard etc)). I would suspect hard drive personally. pcsupport.about.com www.computerhope.com www.youtube.com |

| 1134708 | 2010-09-05 05:44:00 | Sounds like a third-party program giving out the clicks | Renmoo (66) | ||
| 1134709 | 2010-09-05 06:36:00 | As PCTek mentioned, its either a hard Drive OR one other thing it may be is if something has moved and maybe a wire / crap or something is touching a fan, but it would be a really fast "tick". Take the side off the case, start the PC, listen, then locate the Tick -- it will soon be very evident where its coming from. IF it is a HDD, replace it NOW and clone it, as later when it fails it may very well be to late to save any data. |
