Your power fan is probably loose. You could tighten the screws holding it in place, or replace it. While you're fiddling with it you might as well clean it.

As everyone else said, the fan is probalbly loose, maybe even jammed, you may have to open the power supply up to have a look.

Make sure it's unplugged you have no idea how many people forget that.

I can't think of any way to tighten the screws without opening your PSU but using your computer upside down is ridiculous. Since its working fine except for your cdrom drive you should probably invert your cdrom drive too. I've never tried it out but it should work.
