internal speaker started beeping when surfing the net
Hi i have a k6-233 with a Aopen motherboard, just before when i was surfing the net the internal pc speaker beeped a few times, but i dont know why, my cpu is not oiverheating cause the fan was working so wats the problem
How often did/does it happen? If it oly happened once, maybe you accidently had something pressing a key on the keyboard???
ASKER
it happened a few times during my net session but i was not press a key at the time
Does it happen when a page is loading or when there is no activity?
If you *HOLD* a keyboard-key down,
in order to send *MANY* characters,
*AND* the Operating System is "busy"
(i.e., a web-browser is "formatting" a large <TABLE>)
it's possible for the "keyboard-buffer" to become full,
because the (temporary) lack of resources
means that the Operating System is not extracting
keys from that "keyboard-buffer".
When that buffer becomes "full", you can get a "beep".

it was happening when loading a page
So, were you HOLDING a key down while it was loading a page?
ASKER
no it just started beeping
Were you moving you mouse?
ASKER
yes i was but when its being overloaded with key pressed it does'nt let off a solid beep, it lets off a like a sorta click rapidly
So you were moving the mouse and the sound was a "rapid clicking" sounds? Does it happen randomly or on certain sites?
ASKER
no it was a BEEPING noise not a clicking noise as it would be if i held down a key for ages and no it wasn't the site cause i revisited the site that it was beeping on and it did'nt happen
what os are you using?

I did not read OTTA's answer. I never read the comments. I only read the questions. Otta's answer was the same, but I never read it.
