[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 673060, member: 8287"] Are you still plugged into your friends power adapter? Is his the exact same machine? Are you sure the clicking is coming from the left rear and not the left front? The Hard Drive is in the Left front and if it's dying can make those clicking sounds. I would run the Apple Hardware Test off the Install DVD and see if it finds anything wrong. On the Intel Macs I believe you hold down the D key right after the Startup Sound with the OSX DVD in the drive to run the Apple Hardware Test. [/QUOTE]
