My T42 is "whistling". Any ideas?

#1 Post by Vasant56 » Wed Mar 04, 2009 3:27 am

Whenever my T42 is plugged in it starts "whistling".. almost like a cooked hot dog (albeit a little more faint). Does anyone know what the problem could be?

I'd guess that the AC adapter itself is the cause of the noise.
