I am experiencing a whining noise from my hard disk drive. It is now
badly grating on my nerves, making it difficult to use my computer, an
AT clone. I was wondering if keeping my system *vertical* (using a system
stand) is what's causing this whine. If not, I'd appreciate hearing of
other possible causes and their remedies. I'd rather not have to discon-
nect all cables, move the computer and reconnect unless I have to, as
the computer's near a wall, in a pretty tight spot.

I'd appreciate replies via e-mail, as I don't read this group often. If
there are numerous replies, indicating a lot of interest, I'll summarize
to the group.

ADVthanksANCE,

Yaakov K.
