I keep hearing a door creaking noise coming from my tower. I read that it may be because I have a DVD in my DVD drive but I took it out and still hear the noise. I hear it quite frequently. I ran diagnostics from the HP support site and everything has passed, no issues were detected.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
- Did this happen after a recent window or software update?
- Have you made any hardware/software changes?
- Did you make any changes to the settings of your PC prior to the issue?
- When was the last time it worked fine?
While you respond to that, let's try these steps:
- Step 1: Adjust the computer power settings
- Step 2: Increase the efficiency to reduce heat
- Step 3: Let the computer cool down
- Step 4: Determine which fan is making the noise
- Step 5: Troubleshoot the fan
- Step 6: Use Task Manager to identify corrupt processes

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
