XPS 410 Case
I got my XPS 410 yesterday. I just set it up, My case makes squeaky noise when i press down on top of my case gently and then i shift it to left or right. Computer does not make a lot of noise but i hear some fan nose if i slightly shake it. Is that normal? Has anyone experience a similar issue? Please give your honest feed back, i don't want any .

- winnie, make sure to install the latest forceware from nvidia's site. What I find is that the 7900GS fan is very loud when booting, but as soon as the new driver's are loaded, the fan is throttled down to a quiet speed and it only gets louder when playing a long time on GPU intensive games.

even opening up the nvidia control panel causes the fan to start spinning faster and become audible.

I would not worry about this too much. Most cases will give a little when pressure is applied. Now for the fan noise -- it's quiet until you shake it? Why are you shaking your computer?SisLadybug
