There's at least a dozen reasons what could be wrong, my advice is on Monday morning either a) call tech support for whomever sold you the PC or b) (if self built) give a far more detailed report on your system, exactly what noise it's making, what it's doing now etc.
Well its a Dell XPS 400 and the sound is like a low buzzing sound.
That's still not a lot to go on! At a guess, a blown capacitor somewhere inside your unit? To be honest you need to give information like what LED's are lit, does your monitor show anything, can you get your case fans to spin up? There's loads of questions that need answering before anyone online can get a clear picture.
To be honest, you're better off calling Dell, they've got 24 hour tech support online and it'd be a lot more straightforward than running you through the process via posts 8+ hours apart
Is the machine in warranty? If so you _need_ to contact Dell, whether you like it or not.
Hmm i just got home from school and turned this computer on and it started making noises and after a couple restarts on my screen said it had a hardware montior error.
And the machine isn't on warranty >.> bought it last year in june
