Re: snoring memory while computer idles

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Hello!

At first I want to thank you for your responses saying as I get this right
it is not caused
by Windows. So my trust into the software that I love was is not shaken, and
this was
very important to me when I noticed this flaw also making video files
running jerky.

It is first come as I installed XP. It is not any piece of hardware because
anything is ok
till the computer is in idle. As long as using the keyboard, typing, nothing
without the 'nor-
mal' sounds are audible. The fans in the power supply and on the cpu I have
had rep-
placed by others that are running silent. They running silent but the way
they do is a bit
hard as I think but I had not got others here round town.

The noise but that I reporting is first in the memory when the computer
idles, the keyboard
wasn't touched about a minute or two. Than it starts and first disappears
when the computer
is in use again. Could this been being caused by an virus that is on the
hard drive.

I by the way plan to get me a second hard disk but would like to know who is
making this
noise.

Thank's again!

Steve
