Sorry if this is the wrong forum section, if so feel free to move my thread or notify me so ill move it.

I post it here because the beep sounds like comming from inside the PC so i guess it can be the motherboard.

I know there a diffrent beep sounds that can come for diffrent reasons, for example like some alaram.

But that is NOT the case here. atleast im sure of that.


This sound is VERY quiet, for the first time i tought its just in my ear or just in my head whatever. But its not. I can hear it on both ears and a family member confirmed this.

Every 3 - 5 secconds there is this insanly psychopathic very quiet beep that happes twice, the 2 beeps are happening pretty much the same time (its fast)

Ofcourse i did research online but cant find anything usefull on this.

I really need to stop this beepig it makes me crazy...

It is a real sound. when i power-off my pc the beep is gone, proof.

Continuous beeping - correct?

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS.

Then find the User Guide/Manual for the motherboard. The manual should have a troubleshooting section that lists and explains the beep codes: usually patterns of long and short beeps.

There may also be some diagnostic LED's. Pay attention to them as well.

Thanks for your help, i will try to find the manual.

I noticed after buying a new monitor, there is a led on the motherboard that wasnt lighting before. but does that mean anything? its white. constantly on but only when the pc is off but sitll connected to power.

Key is to be sure that you correctly identify the pattern. Both the number of beeps and the length of the beeps.

Do verify that I found the correct User Guide.

Thanks for the help.
I took a look on your links, they seems very usefull there is alot information, not to say "too much" i get lost with all this pages, ill keep trying to find about beep.. there should be a extra page for beep with beep as title?

Also, i dont think ill find the reason for the beep just by hearing it any trying to find out what exactly this means other than giving me headache...

Isnt there a way in the bios or in windows to figure out actually ongoing beeps and their cause? I mean the pc is doing the beepp right, so there should be a built in way in the pc to tell me why and what is this..
