[TLTD]

I had this happen but I just load up Pro Tools and it stops. I believe it is improper boot order (always boot computer up last!) and nothing to do with hard drives. I sometimes just want to turn my laptop on and everything else is on my power conditioner. Today, I had my video drive attached and had the popping noise. Pro Tools did something by loading it that fixed it, but I just remembered that Pro Tools hardware does not like to be turned on later.
