Are you sure its not overheating?
My Mother board speaker is SCREAMING!
Hi please can someone try explain to me what is going on with my PC. Whenever I am running a lot of programs/processes at once, my MB speaker Screams at me, one continuous beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. It started when I was playing Mod warfare 2. I thought the GPU was getting too hot so I took off my side cover. It did stop it from screaming until now. When I open Google earth and try zoom into a city, It stars again. i took a screen shot of my task mannager if it helps. This screaming sound is driving me crazy, does anyone know why???

Sounds like capacitor whine. Happened to my graphics card and now it has a critical core power failure

I will post a pic of realtemp stats when I run Google earth and it starts screaming

If you deem everything to be in working order, either unplug the speaker or disable it via the BIOS.
I didn't realise motherboards shipped with speakers anymore

My last 3 boards never had one.

Ah ok So I am doing just fine then! Thanks a lot. I'll just leave my danger temp on 70 and so far I have had no beeping sound.
