    about 2 or 3 weeks ago loud clicking again and locked up so I shut it down with the power button, been fine since that. I ran a virus scan about a week ago it found a few things and removed them don't know if that's relevant.

    Sometimes yes this is relevant.

    Though clicking sound usually is dying hard disk.

    Is good idea to run also these 2 scans,

    Download,instal,update SUPERAntiSpyware

    Download,instal,update Malwarebytes

    Restart in safe mode,
    Full scan with superantispyware,finish. Full scan with malwarebytes,finish.

    Restart,
    run again the same both scans in normal mode.

    still there v. faint but as I say I don't know if that has always been there and I haven't noticed because it's not really something I'd think or worry about, I did think that it could just be the "arm" of the hard drive moving across the disk as it's accessing info, But if it is the hard drive dying there's not a lot I can do is there? :)

    As always,backup everything important.
    If have,use your warranty.
    If the hard disk completely die,then check if your laptop can handle a solid state drive and plug one in.
    With the solid state drive your laptop it will be faster and you will have less consume in battery. :)
