New PC, Piece seemed to have come loose

I received my pc today and noticed that one of the parts has come lose from something. I have no idea what it is though.

Also I have a loose screw in there as well and no idea where it is from

That’s the speaker for the system error beeps. It’s supposed to be loose/dangling, as long as the other end is securely plugged into motherboard.

Where is loose screw?

That's the PC speaker, but looks like it's plugged in ok. Wouldn't be secured to anything normally.

That's nothiong to worry about it hasn't come loose it's the motherboard speaker that produces all the warning beeps when things go wrong or when you boot the pc

Okay thank you

The screw was just loose inside the case

Check 2.5" drive bays perhaps, but could be anything. Just remove it and keep an eye on things, but so long as you're not throwing the PC over large spaces say between floors or over ravines, it should be ok

Okay will do so. I've checked the PC it's self and it seems to be running fine

Hard to tell exactly what size this is but looks similar to the screw for the M.2 as well, might be worth checking that's properly secured
