If you're playing off a disk, it may not be sitting well. Also, some dashes control the fan speed and that can increase noise as well. Otherwise, it's got to be whatever the shelf is it's on or something touching the shelf.
The shelf if wood can amplify the sound too. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

ok thats probably what it is....its sitting on my wood computer desk and since when i lift it off it ,it runs more silent must be it.....
i was just worried cause when i asked about my warriors game not playin someone said sounded like my dvdrom might be about to go.....

ive got hd spindown time off
immediate hd spindown off
shutdown idle time out off
fan speed override off

Your preference.
The reason it's quieter is that the fan runs slower.
I put mine up to 40% and leave it.
By default it runs at 20% when running the M$ dash. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th
