Tom - I thought of that too so I unplugged the power to the CD and all other things I could think of...hard drives, fans, cpu fan. The noise still occurs. I'm left to think it's the cpu, no matter how illogical it seems. I read someplace that some Linux users had a similar problem that was caused by their power option settings, but I have all mine disabled.
Keep throwing ideas at me. Hopefully there is something I haven't thought of.
