RandyL Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 A screeching sound at startup is usually a fan in my opinion. Open the case and see if there is a buildup of dirt. At the same time you might be able to tell if the noise is coming from one of the fans when you startup. Quote We are all members helping other members.

Dalo Harkin Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Could be anything, its a mechanical part so it narrows it down a little:- Fan HDD If windows is not booting then I would say HDD, as even if a fan packs up the heat generated wouldnt cause the system to not even POST Quote Intel Q6600 @ 4Ghz (Watercooled)Asus P5K premium black pearl4GB OCZ Reaper 8500260GTX Join Free PC Help - Register here Donations are welcome - here PC Build We are all members helping other members.Please return here where you may be able to help someone else.After all, no one knows everything and you may have the answer that someone needs.
igoogle Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 all you should have to is reset cmos after that also take the lithium battery out boot up PC then turn it off and put it back in note make sure you unplug your PC and no electricity is flowing while working inside pc for your safety Quote
Boomer Posted August 20, 2011 Posted August 20, 2011 When you say screeching sound, we presume you mean from the tower itself. Not the speakers? Quote
