Hi guys,
I have a real problem on my hand. I dont know if it is serious or not but I thought I would ask you guys and you could advise me what I should do. When I am playing a EverQuest my Mobo starts beeping. Like just a short beep maybe every 2-5 minutes.
I checked my heat on my CPU and its ok and my BIOS seems to be setup ok. Any ideas?

Are you sure its the motherboard? If so check the manual to see if it has anything.

ever try looking up what the beeps mean? if the pc speaker is making a beeping sound, something is wrong. could be something on the board or the speaker could be borked ;)

heres a list of common beeps

This is a long shot, but my pc speaker used to beep when I was pressing too many keys on the keyboard at the same time.

Just a thought.

Yeah most do, esp during boot.

Well the beeps are not happening at Bootup. The Codes that you referred me to Etone was Posting beeps and errors.

Like I said before this usually happens when I am in a game. Like Everquest or C&C Generals.

When my computer beeps its really not even really a beep but like a tick sound originating from the PC Speaker. Best way I can describe it. I have looked everywhere to try to find the cause but have met with negative results.
