Hi @catninja2009 ,

Can you determine where the weird noises are coming from? Usually there are only a few moving parts in a computer, the HDD, the fans (case, PSU and CPU) and the ODD if in use.

If it is the HDD and since you're experiencing problems opening files etc it may be failing. Perhaps backing up your data to an external HDD may be advisable before it fails completely.

Run a check disc on the HDD.

What is the model number of the PC?
