Asus Maximus V Formula continuous beep code

[iguanish]

Hello everyone, I'm having an extremely annoying issue that I can't seem to figure out.

My Maximus V Formula is giving me beep codes over and over again. Most of the time I'm getting 2 beeps, and I get this code approx. every minute. Sometimes it's only 1 beep though.

The board displays an "A0" Q code, which I know is IDE initiated and indicates that all is fine on the system. The PC hasn't been changed at all recently, however, this issue only began today.

Does anyone have any input on what could be causing this and how to get this extremely loud beeping to stop?

Specs:
Intel i5 3570k
Asus Maximus V Formula
G.Skill Trident x 16 GB (8x2) @ 2400 MHz
Sapphire Radeon HD 7970
Intel Maple Crest 120 GB SSD
WD Black 1 TB HDD
Rosewill Lightning 1000W PSU

Thanks so much in advance!

Hi, What CPU cooler using?

 

[iguanish]

ZALMAN CNPS9900MAX-B 135mm Long life bearing CPU Cooler Blue LED. CPU temps seem to be fine.

An option would be disconnecting the case speaker.

I disconnected the external speaker that was connected to the MoBo. That was my first step hahaha. However, apparently there's another speaker somewhere.

Not the external, but the one connected to the motherboard (where front panel wires get connected to the motherboard): http://images17.newegg.com/is/image/newegg/12-201-032-TS?$S300W$

Yes, that is exactly what I disconnected. The beeping persists and that speaker is physically completely out of the case.

Can you locate the source of sounds?
