pc problems need help ( beeeep,BEEEP ) "fixed"
<< < (2/4) > >>
jace055:
1)  Check the power management settings in windows and in bios to make sure you don't have it set to laptop or something.  I think this is more of a bios problem because windows notification would come out of the sound card. 

Boot into windows and play a game for a few minutes to get the processor temp up the exit out of the game and reboot into BIOS and check your processor temps.  What motherboard/gateway model number are you running?

2)  Unplug the internal speaker.  That will fix it for sure.

I removed the old modem crap
and the keyboard crap still waiting for a beep
I am starting to think problem has been solved.

to be honest I never knew of windows beeps. I thought all beeps were the bios telling me somthing is bad wrong.
first time I have run into a windows beep
kelemvor:
Could always just reformat and try again and see if it comes back...

If all else is working fine, I'd unplug the speaker.
If it's one of them little surface mount jobs, then put a piece of tape over the hole.

I'd bet it's a keyboard or other input buffer error. Maybe you control interface is triggering it?
SirPeale:
I betcha it's the stickykeys things going on.

If you hit the control or shift keys five times in a row, it turns this feature on.  I think it makes this sound.
