I have incurred problem with noises coming from the PC
and there were times XP would not load up upon booting
while the noises were going on. The noises can be
described as a series of 4 to 5 short grinding noises
followed by what might be the sound when something is
loading up. This cycle could continue for 1-2 minutes.
For a while, the noises stopped on their own and all
worked well. Now I just installed some XP updates and as
the install process started, the noises started up again.
Nothing can be done on the PC until the noises stop -
typically a minute and then the PC works well for another
minute but a cycle of noise/install continues.
Do we know a cause/solution?
Thanks.
