Hi, I just purchased an Asus P5N32-E motherboard. Its been maybe a week since I've set everything up. A few times while I was test playing a F.E.A.R. demo I heard system beeps.
First it was *beep* *beep*, then another time it was only one *beep*, and another time, *beep*...delay... *beep*. So they sound like single beeps.
What could be making the noise & why?
Heres what parts I'm using:
Asus P5n32-E motherboard
Intel E6600 CPU
Evga 8800GTS 320MB
Understandably weirded out, I checked the system temps. Everything was in range and CPU @ 120*F. The 8800GTS graphics card was up to 75c-78c (+170*F). Not really out of range for that card though.
Also I haven't flashed my BIOS yet if that could be related. I'm alittle nervous about it from the horror stories I hear.
Thanks to those of you who answer.
