Acer Aspire One  PC Notebook Logo
Posted on Nov 23, 2010

Laptop recently started to make noise on start up, feels and sounds like it's coming from the area below the keyboard in the lower left part, it's an acer aspire 5570-2067. it makes noise for a while, then it eventually stops. If i hit it while its making noise (lightly, not hard of course), it changes pitch, but sounds like it's something like the fan, and obviously never used to do this before. what should i do??

Def sounds like the fan , from where you say the sound is coming from . normally the fan should be able to be cleaned the panned holding the fan in the left hand corner . clean the fan with compressed air , or a paint brush . if this fails then you need a new fan .

Keyboard

Keyboards on Windows computers can repeat letters when key press sensitivity is too high. This problem can be rectified by adjusting your keyboard's repeat frequency. Once this is lowered, key presses will occur slower and you will not have the letters repeated instantly.

Click"Start," then "Control Panel." Click "Hardware and Sound," followed by "Keyboard." Move the "Repeat delay" slider further to the left below the "Character repeat" option. The further left the slider moves, the longer the delay will be before a character repeats.

I have a 2005 Kingsranch F-250 Superduty 6.0 Diesel. There are 62,000 miles on the truck. It has been making a ?noise? that seems to come from outside below my left foot. I realize the location of noises...

I can give you some ideals but not Sure which direction to go, does it have a vachum pump that you are aware of sir? if it does then the vachum line may have come of the fuel regulater and that may be casuing it to pluse and would explaing the hissing sound. Since diesls don't have vachumm like a normal engine they use a pump, and that is what it sounds like to me. Also Ford had some minor problems withthe engine intake pipes or rubber connecting hose on the turbo, they would slip off and make this noise to. Look to see if there is any oil around the turbo hose's if there is feel under the hose and see if you feel oil there on the back of the tube, if there is you will have to replace the tubes, they cost from ford $35.00 for a set, if you need more help post here and I will help you if Ican. Thanks for using fix ya

I have a HP Pavilion dv6000 and the fan has started making noises

Its possible but it would require taking out all the screws from the bottom of the latop, taking out the keyboard and the screws from the top cover. Then disconnecting the ribbon for the mouse pad and any other plugs coming from the top cover. After you take off the top cover you'll expose where the fan is at and at that point you can clean it off. If it still makes weird sounds then the fan would need to be replaced.
