Random beeps from my comp.

Dcully · 2005-08-10 19:16:02

Lastnight i started getting random beeps from my pc case. Im assuming its the motherboard. Ive nothing overclocked at all but wonder what it could be. Could it maybe be dust causing overheating of cpu? If so would the system not shut down? Ive heard it just once this evening.

Is there anything in the event log of the PC?
Random beebs can be anything depending on the board-even a sign that something is loose or that your MOBO battery is dying.
What spc PC and OS have you, how old is it?

yeh the event log is a good spot to start, should give any issues that the pc is detecting.
