When I play games like World o Warcraft or The Movies sometimes my hard-disk makes that buzzing/beeping sound and starts reading. When this happens the game freezes for a few seconds. Sometimes it even happens every 5 - 10 seconds! What could it be? I checked for viruses and spyware and found nothing. Here are my specs:
