Getting some squealing from the motherboard and I am not sure what to do with it. Gives me the feeling that it will go bad at anytime. I diabled the CE1 and took away 90% of it but it is sometimes still there. Should I be worried, RMA the board (this is already my second board), or just forget it and enjoy an otherwise great board. (EX58-UD4P).

A MB has no moving parts and deos not make noises or squeal. A CPU/heatsink fan, case fan or power supply fan would be the obvious place to look for noise. The hard drive has moving parts and can make noise also.

And a video card missing the external power connector can also squeal.
