Hi soheilsan

Welcome to the Dell community. Please try the following steps

• Check which side of the system is making noise

• Shut down the system and run the hardware diagnostic by using a combination of ‘ Fn and power button ‘ or tap the F12 key on the dell logo screen and select diagnostics option. observe and note any error code(s) during the diagnostics

• Ensure that there is no disc in the optical drive

• Update the system BIOS from this link : http://dell.to/L9FhQY

Download this file on your system and follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation. Restart the system.

Please revert with observations

Hi soheilsan

Welcome to the Dell community. Thank you for replying with details. Now the only component that could be responsible for making noise is the system fan assembly.

Please revert for assistance
