Clicking Sound after Shutdown
Hi,
I have a strange problem. I have an Acer laptop with a Western Digital Hard Drive. I like the computer, however, when I shut the computer down it turns off and then makes a subsequent click sound. This sound is made when everything is seemlingly shutdown.
I thought it may have been a faulty hard drive but I tested this with Seatools and there is no problem. The sound also seems to be coming from the top right hand section of the computer near where the CD/DVD drive is located. The click sound is only made on shutdown and the CD/DVD drive has only been used a couple of times and when this sound is made it has nothing in it.
Is it normal for this to be happening? Is my computer just shutting down a component? I'm thinking because it's under warranty I may take it for repair. Does it need repair though?
Please note the clicking sound is never made at any other times.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you also for having me on this forum.
Kind regards,
