Thanks for the info. I went into the BIOS yesterday and saved the DVD drive
as the primary boot device, when I went in just now to save the memory
configuration I noticed the DVD drive wasnt the primary boot device
anymore, so its looks like the BIOS has reset itself, maybe that *is* why
I`m getting the beeps sometimes. Also 2 months ago around the time it first
happened the BIOS lost its time and date settings and I had to reenter them.
