Noisy Power Supply Unit

I finally found my way in here. I have an Aspire X1700 with a Vista 64 OS using IE8.  A while back my power supply unit started making a rattling sound. It's not the fan. It comes from within the power supply unit which is where the outside power plug enters the system.. If I push on different areas the noise varies in sound and depth.

Would anyone know how I would go about trying to fix or remedy this problem? When I first boot up the PC sounds like a bunch of marbles in a blender. After it heats up it quiets down to almost bearable. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Dutchman

     

    PSU's are not user repairable. Take your PC in for repair at a local store. They may be able to repair it or if need be, replace it with a new one.
