Yes, i am getting strange beeps, but they are souly from the DVD drive, i tryed disconnected it from the power supply, the noise went away. I have tripple checked all of the connections, and there are no speakers connected. as far as specs go:
amd 3400 64
Radion x1950 xt (still running AGP)
2 gb ram
asus motherboard
850 watt supply
for a while now, when i play team fortress 2, my computer would crash, but in a weird way, it the screen would get no input then turn off, and the sound would start looping as if the computer had stalled. i would turn off my computer and wait for around 10 minutes before turning it back on. After around 3 mouths, the power supply blew up, which i have recently replaced.
It was working fine until i started up tf2 when it did the similar crash, i decided that i was going to see if my prosesser was dieing. I didnt find any strange marks or anything on the chip. When i put my computer back together again and tryed to boot, everything looked fine, all the fans were running, but the screen was blank and my DVD drive was making funny noises(the green light was also flashing). I dont know what this means, but my best guess is that the Hard drive has failed, and the computer is trying to boot from the dvd drive, but would that explain the blank screen? im not exactully sure where to start, any suggestions or comments would be very helpful. Thanks!
