The beep depends on the motherboard - mostly they have different tunes for different errors. <br />
<br />
The error you describe is one I get when the system overheats. <br />
You might like to check your motherboard doco. <br />
<br />
Within the BIOS you can usually set things like alarms when an error occurs (such as something isnt configured correctly). <br />
<br />
Maybe that is the problem?<br />
<br />
Hope that helps, <br />
