Hi,
Firstly, I dont know if this is the correct section, so feel free to move it....
so, this morning, when turning on my computer, there were increasingly louder beeps coming from my machine. Normally, there is just one beep, but today there were lots almost like:
beep, beep, beep,beep,beep, BEEP,BEEP,BEEP.
then it closed down. The screen was blank the whole time.
when I turned it back on up came a screen saying "UEFI dual bios" (this does not usually show, even the bios is a different type of screen) it then restarted, and booted normally.
A similar kind of beeping has occurred before, however the system still booted into windows as usual, and I had inadvertently turned on the alert for a failed system fan - I don't appear to have a system fan. so once this had been turned off, all was well.
is this a similar fix to before, or is there a more serious problem here
note: I have checked, and all alerts have been turned off.
Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5 4670
Operating System: windows 8.1 64 bit
Motherboard: Gigabyte H87M-HD3
RAM: 8GB DDR3 1660mhz (2x4GB)
Graphics card: Palit GeForce GTX 750 StormX OC 1GB
Monitors: LG 21.5" 22EN33S-B LED (1080p and D-SUB only)
PSU: 500W PSU (generic)
Also, I dont know if this is important, but yesterday we did have a powercut, so the computer did crash, but it did turn back on normally afterwards.
