alarm/beep?

[Susa]

in the past ive never heard my computer beep or use an alarm sound then the other day i decided to take a look at what my bios has and i found an option Virus protection so i enable it and see what happens, it said sounds an alarm when a virus is detected entering your HDD so i get on limewire (lol) and bam almost immediately an alarm goes off a constant non stop beep/alarm so i said thats annoying and went and turned it off, now my computer at random times will make that alarm sounds and i disabled all the alarms in bios, so even now ill turn my computer on close all programs cept explorer and let it sit give about 30min and the alarm goes off would anyone have an idea of what it is?

A failing fan? Case or cpu.

Have you disabled beep alarm in emule?

Are you reaching the max temp of the cpu?


All this stuff gives beeps.

i never really thought of it to be a failing fan before but yeah i have disabled all alarms and i -know- im not reaching max temp of CPU 3.0 P4 OC'd to 3.45 63C full load, but the fan thing gives me an idea i did just buy a new CPU fan so ill look into it thanks for the info
