Weird Hardware/XP Question by compubmw 2005-03-08 01:08:52
OK, I can't figure this out.

I turn off my flourescent light and my PC speaker starts beeping without any rhythm or rhyme. Beep, Beep beep beep, Beep, Beep BEep, etc every few minutes.

This has happened two nights now. One I left up WinTV32 so I could watch some tv from bed, the other I was running winamp playing a video full screen.

Whats going on?
