notebook western digital hard drive clicking

om my new notebook running vista premium the hard drive sometimes clicks,
there is meant to be an issue with cerain WD drives clicking and a patch to
run to sort the firmware, hoever it runs from floppy not cd rom. this is
meant to be an issue with the drive getting a power management signal to
park and reading the signal incorrctly. any ideas.... tried messaging wd
but no reply as of yet
