[QUOTE="q17, post: 504443, member: 39277"] It's definitely not the CD drive. It's a very weird and concerning mechanical buzzing that sounds like a broken, vibrating metal part. It does not sound good or at all normal. I do have it under warranty. Telephone service didn't know anything about it and told me to take it to an apple store when I went to fix my battery. And the store said they didn't hear anything, but it happens literally every time I start up the computer. I was hoping someone here had experienced the same problem and knew the cause. Again, it's a weird metallic buzzing right under the long thin strip directly in between the function keys and the monitor hinge. I can make it increase or decrease with the monitor brightness and angle, and sometime lifting the computer off of the desk into the air makes it go away. Thank for any help. [/QUOTE]
