PC noise

I have just purchased a new PC and when i turn it on the tower makes a
noise...like a piercing satic noise...the ones u can sometimes hear when u
have the tv on.
I unplugged the arial but it still makes the noise, where i purchased my PC
from they said they couldnt hear anything and that its normal because its a
powerful machine with alot of electricty running throughout...i dont believe
this because my old PC was powerful and old and the only noise i heard was
the fan!
This electricity/static noise i hear is giving me a bad headache and its
killing my ears!
Does anyone know what it could be???

Take it back. Make them fix it. Sounds like a fan is binding.

I don't know about what has casued the noise for sure as i can't hear it. If
your LCD monitor has an external power adapter, they sometimes cause
electric static
sound, and if the sound is not "very lould", this is normal.

About your mouse light and keyboard light, some computer motherboards supply
power to your keyboard and mouse even after you turned off your computer.
This is becasue they let you power up your PC from a keyboard by pressing
the "POWER" key on your keyboard. In some motherboards you can change this
setting by changing the jumper on your motherboard or in your bois, but some
motherboards, you can't change this at all. So as the computer shop told
you, this is NORMAL and most new computers this day is like this.
