Q: Loud Constant White Noise

Hello, This noise is hard to pin down. It goes away when put to sleep, but reappears when woken: same with shut down and restart.

All apps are off and peripherals unplugged except ethernet.

Sometimes it goes away, but seems to come back when playing audio files or YouTube videos.

There's not much about this from a forum search.

Thanks for any help or ideas.

Chas

    Yes the fan noise cranks all through start up in Safe Mode.

    I shut down and unplugged for maybe 30 minutes and on restart, all was quiet.

    I started playing a music video from YouTube and they came back. Same once when I used iMovie; all quiet then came back when I was editing a movie.

    thanks for the reply
