I may go five or so restarts where there is no beeping. This morning it's
the constant beeping (every 1 second). Yesterday, the intervals were some
42 seconds. When the beeping happens I turn the audio volume to zero.
Naturally, during those sessions I've lost any features that require audio.
Other than the beeping I know of no problems while running any application -
Word, Excel, AutoCad, Paint Shop Pro, ZtreeWin, TextPad, Internet Explorer.
Each time I launch Winbond Hardware Doctor 2.73 I see no warnings -- all the
temperatures, etc., seem to be within bounds.
This has been going on for some six months.
I'm up to date with my McAfee virus protection and have recently done a
complete virus scan.
I'm up to date with Windows 2000 Pro, using their latest service pack. I
run on a homebrewed system based around an Abit 1C7-G motherboard for the
past 16 months.
One suspicion that I hope I've ruled out is my SpyderPro2 monitor calibrator
from the Pantone Colorvision folks. My problem began shortly after I
installed their software/hardware. After a default period, two weeks, you
get a nag screen suggesting that your monitor requires calibration. An
email response from those people told me how to turn off that nag screen. I
'm not convinced that the beeping is not coming from, say, their startup
program.
