MacBook is making noises

[iToch]

Please Help me!
MacBook is doing annoying noises, and it just won't stop! It started happening ever-since I tried to work once with the Final Cut Pro.
It's like the fan is working very-very hard, I tried SMC and NVRAM and it won't stop! I feel like I need help ASAP because I have a lot of work to do, but this noise is so annoying I can't even sit down next to it for like a second.
Thanks for your help.

BTW, I have white MacBook (May 2010), 4GB and 250GB (200GB are free).
Thanks

If it is the fan, then it is due to FCP (which version) doing CPU intensive tasks.

Open Activity Monitor and select All Processes and then sort by CPU to show you the process(es) slowing down your Mac or speeding up your fan(s) or causing more heat.

If you want people to help you you need to record it and upload it somewhere so they can listen to it.

It can be 2 things I think, HD or Fan(s).

Hard to say, I don't know which noise to listen to, there is kinda knocking sound, a short sound in the beginning and a background sound, if it is the background sound/noise it seems like the Fans, but again, hard to hear.

OK, and it's the fan, what should I do?

Replace it.
It's super easy.

iFixIt has guides for that.

Btw, do you hear the sound upon a fresh restart without having opened FCP (whatever version you use) yet?

When the computer is shut-down, there isn't noise, but once I'm turning the computer again, even before the gray screen is coming up, The noises are back.
