I'm just lying here typing on the computer and everytime my bed shakes my labtop makes aclicking type noise. Not like loading a bad disk clicking noise, more like something may be loose. It's in the left corner.

I was going to suggest that your hard drive is about to die. Might pay to back up the stuff you need anyway. :p

Which left corner is it in? If it's only happening when your bed shakes you could check the screen's mounting on the case. Try wiggling your screen back and forth a bit. Are you using your optical drive? Could be that it's trying to read from a disc and screws up when there's any motion. :p

It's in the left corner of the keyboard part. And yea it's only when I move it. I put it back the desk and it seems fine.
