computer making high pitched squealing noise

If I had wheel covers, I would think it was them making this high pitched squeal, but I have rims, so it's not that. It is from low speeds to high speeds, the sound slightly changes when I apply the breaks, but doesn't go away. If there is a 'last mile' problem, Shaw can dispatch a technician to work outside of your house (up the telephone-pole, or at the Shaw 'demarcation' box) to test the signal-strength entering your house. Also, this does not sound anything like the normal break wear indicator sound.

This method avoids using the coaxial-cables (both inside your house and out to the nearest telephone-pole, while showing the actual performance of the WiFi adapters - inside the modem and inside your first computer.Īlso, contact Shaw (online-chat or telephone) and ask them to remotely logon to your modem, to check the signal-strength at the point where the coaxial cable enters the modem. From your kitchen, try to copy those files onto your first computer, while using the 'Performance' tab within the Windows 'Task Manager' to view the instantaneous usage of your network connection. If you have a second computer, use Windows Networking to 'share' a folder on that computer (preferably connected via CAT-5e (or CAT-6) Ethernet cable to your modem, and put some large files into that folder. These are located throughout a computer in the PS, MB, HDD, CDROM. I dunno if it's coil whining but there are serveral laptops with skylake architecture suffering from this issue (dell xps 9550 too). Solution: What your hearing most likely is a faulty switching voltage regulator. If set to 'highest performance' the noise is more evident. Maybe, try a different method of measuring the speed. Setting it to 'balanced' should quieten the noise a bit.
