Eddie: If you have next day warranty service call Dell. They were at my house and replaced a modem in 24 hours. Call 800 624 9896 Then hit 2 to save time going thru the menu. Have your express service code ready. I really hope this will help. Nothing could be more disappointing. My Lincoln killed it's own battery Saturday, fan ran all night; relay malfunction. I've got to get it in and take a rental car. Warranty, yes, pleased: no. That's life, tho, and I'll buy another. I'm not having a worst hurt contest with you, Eddie, just commiserating. Best to you, Eddie. Don

Eddie, About a month ago you were bragging about what a great deal you got on a new Compaq. Now you are complaining about problems with a new Dell you just bought. Wish I could buy a new computer every month. Wish I could believe you actually bought a Dell. If you really did and it really does have a problem you are in a position to find out just how good the service is. Hope it doesn't ruin your day when the service blows you away.

OT I just want a computer that works properly Sometimes the CD (media) is way out of balance and this makes the CROM drive rattle. The machine should have some power management features in the bios with which you can get the CDROM and/or HardDrive to power down after awhile. If it still rattles afterwords I would suspect the fan. I once got a computer that had an extra washer sitting on the bottom of the case and rattled. Dell machines don't use washers but there could be a bit of packing material or something in the case. TP
