Win7 makes nasty enoying sounds

[dreuzel]

No i'm not joking
I think I've changed somewhat on my configuration but can not find it back.

On every disk access a disk(vribation) sound is created. and a high pitch if it is continious access....

Searching for a disk in trouble, I found I could kill the problem muting the speaker
Where does the sound come from ???
Any idea how to get down to the right setting.

I'm using standard win 7

Does it not come from the speakers when you mute the PC?

no the sound sounds mechanical
but comes out of the speakers. from no known source....
seems to be synchrone with disk access
speaker on, disapears if speaker of= artificial sound from somrwhere unknown !

Once I had my Ethernet, audio, and power cables all tangled and was having that same issue. I went back behind my desk one day and straightened up all the cables. I haven't heard any noises like that since.
