Hi
Thank you for your query
Unfortunatley that noise you are hearing is the hard drive on its way out, the arm that normally reads the metal type discs in the inside is now knocking against them and thus the noise
If you still wish to reseat, if you turn the laptop over on the bottom there will be a symbol like cylinder barrel, this is where the hard drive is.
to remove it ensure there is no power going ot th elaptop and the battery has been removed, undo 2 or 4 screws (depending on the model) and remove the plastic panel, then simply take the hard drive out give the connectors both end a good clean and seat back. Put the cover back on and screws back in
I still believe the hard drive is faulty and you can either purchase another one and replcae yourself as mentioned above or alternativley book it into a reputable PC shop
You will also need to reinstall windows if the hard drive is replaced
If this has been useful please leave positive feedback/vote/testimonial as this will help me greatly - Thank you again

Very loud buzzing noise from laptop, underneath - most likely fan but am no expert so could be the drive? Noise starts about 2 minutes after powering it up from having been off all night.

I live in Buckinghamshire, I believe it is a hardware problem, the laptop was my daughter's 18th Birthday present last June, she is at college, so I would like an address of a competent HP technician who can provide spare bits.
