Question Alarm sound driving me batty

[JesseBurson]

Hello there. I have a MSI B550 Tomahawk Ryzen 5 5600x system, 32 GB ddr 3200. At random times while booted into windows, I will hear a sound like an old school digital alarm clock going off. Sometimes its short, sometimes longer. It does it on any sound device. I am running through a TV. My GPU is XFX 6800. The temps are within safe range. Does it whether in a game or just watching a youtube. I have check for system alarms and cannot find any enable. It's driving me berserk trying to find the culprit. If anyone can help me, that would be sweeeet. Thanks in advance.

What's the origin of the sound; speakers? motherboard?

It comes through the speakers, like I said whether it's headset, or tv.

Seems there is some software playing that sound for whatever reason... You have to find it and turn it off. When the sound is playing open the volume mixer to identify where the sound is coming from.

It is too random and doesn't stay on long enough to get the mixer open.

look in your bios for fan speed and temp settings see if it something like fan speed or temps set to low kicking off an alarm or something like that

It isn't coming from the main board, it only comes when booted into windows and doesn't matter the audio source, whether it be from the onboard device, or the gpu's hdmi.

check CPU temps fan speeds or failed fan , or try turning off unplug PC remove Bios battery but sound like a motherboard warning alarm or BIOS not happy about something?

What power supply is in this unit and how old?
What part of the world are you in?

Do you have cabling running alongside power wire in parallel?

Is there a microwave nearby or anyone doing something like welding or running other equipment?

I opened event viewer directly after a tone. Here is what it reported.
