Why is my computer making strange sounds?

Hi Marco Mahone,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

There could be several reasons why your computer is making strange sounds. Here are a few possibilities:

• Hardware problem: It's possible that there is a problem with the hardware in your computer, such as a malfunctioning fan, hard drive, or power supply. These components can sometimes make strange noises when they're not working properly.
  
• Software issue: Sometimes, software programs can cause your computer to make strange sounds. For example, if you have an app or program that's set to make a sound when a task is completed, it could be causing the sound you're hearing.
  
• Peripheral devices: If you have any external devices connected to your computer, such as a printer, scanner, or external hard drive, they could be causing the sound you're hearing.
  

In your specific case, it sounds like the sound might be related to a software program or a peripheral device. If you were using a design program, it's possible that the program has a sound effect set up to play when a task is completed. Similarly, if you have a printer connected to your computer, it could be making the printer-like sound when it finishes a print job.

To troubleshoot the issue, try disconnecting any external devices you have connected to your computer and see if the sound persists.

• If it does, try closing any open programs or apps and see if the sound stops.
  
• If the sound continues, it could be a hardware problem, and you may want to consider taking your computer to a professional for repair.
  

If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.
