Do all fans work on everything? or do i need to look for something specific to my motherboard?
Depends what fan it is, heatsink, Cpu fan or any other fan, what you should do is Open the case up an Listen for the Noise an where it maybe comming from

RE: Computer Noises!?
it could just be your fans running full speed for some reason, or faster than normal. the servers at my moms work sound like jet engines when the boot, and that only a 1u thing with like 40 mm fans.
when i clean out my computers i use my dads compresser. it gets dust out extreamly well, but the $350 can price tag isnt worth it. get air in a can.
Just take the case off an listen while running the system
Just fo as i suggested an take off the case an listen

t wouldn't be the hard disk? because once my computer was making weird wining noises and it turned out to be the harddisk drive!
Hve u checked mycomputer> system> device manger to see if it says anything their?
I am having this problem also. I cant be arsed to take off the case to listen tho, because the wiring where my computer is makes it virtually impossible to actually SEE the case once its connected, unless I pull out my ENTIRE comp desk...
I am getting my computer completely upgraded in like 20 days anyways, so I will ask those guys to take a look at it
