Pc wont boot plus clicking sound

[Gavin75]

I have an intel i5 processor, and an amd r9 270x graphics card. My computer will not boot correctly. When it boots it will just be a balck screen and when ever i press my keybored it will make a click sound, not from the tv but from the actual computer, i dont know why. I recently partitioned a flasdrive to make a persistant linux bootable flashdrive and maybe i messed up my boot settings but before yhis problem occured there was the problem of my computer saying "drive does not exist" "entering rescue mode" so im really confused and i dont know how to deal with this please help

Hi there Gavin75,

You can open up the side panel, if this would not void some kind of a warranty, and try to locate where the sound comes from.

Apart from that, I believe you can remove the HDD and see what happens. If there is no click sound, then you will know that it comes from your HDD.

Let me know how this goes,
