Solved!
Laptop makes a metallic clicking sound sometimes.
07-29-2020 12:16 PM

I recently bought a laptop from HP, and there's this issue where the laptop makes a metallic clicking sound at random. I've tried updating the BIOS and ran a disk check and got no error issue.
Please let me know if this sound is common, if not how can I resolve the issue.?

Welcome to HP Community
I have gone through your Post and would like to help
Please run a System Test and let me know if you hear the clicking sound
- Shut down the Notebook completely
- Turn it back on, then tap the Esc key repeatedly until the Startup menu screen is displayed.
- Press F2 to select System Diagnostics.
- Click System Tests, then click Extensive Test.
Keep me posted
