So basically My laptop which is about a year old started making this weird noise which seems to be coming from the left of the laptop. This sound is constant from the moment i hit the power button. it sounds like how static sounds. its very faint but increases sometimes. it started when i kinda half threw the laptop on the bed. it made a click kinda sound when it landed. after that i switched it on and the sound starts. its coming from the the place on the left where there is a vent like outlet. and the noise increases if i push down on that part of the laptop. Audio Of the noise. Any help would be appreciated. is it fan or hard disk?
P.S the noise stops when i tild the laptop at a certain angle.
Thanks
