My case is vibrating!

[Roots]

It's REALLY annoying. I've tried so hard to minimize the sound that my computer emits and now this has to crop up. Here is the case: Link. I think the vibrations are coming from the front of the case, but its really hard to tell. What could be causing it? I think I've heard of some type of special screw that eliminates vibrating, would that help? Also I don't have the case feet extended out, could that possibly help? Thanks in advance.

Check your fans for broken blades. Also check that the purple fan mounts are completely seated in the slots. You can use a piece of rubber tubing, one end to your ear and one end to various case cpmponents to help find the noise. A stethoscope is even more helpful.

prolly a loose fan mount somewhere unless ur hdd is about to pop ... OR u have a 52X creative CDROM drive

Also check drive mounting screws for looseness...don't forget floppy.

I noticed this when I went to aluminum, must be a bit more prone to vibration?? It has gone away now after its been moved around a bit..maybe things needed to just "find home"... <shrug> Push on the side panels or top even and see if it stops.. Mine was actually the side panel that was vibrating a bit.
