Computer has started to beep, short beeps, which continue until shutdown, it
doesn't effect what I'm doing.
So I shut down, and on re-boot it starts again.

What could this be?

Are the beeps playing through your speakers or through the speaker
inside your computer case?

From the computer case.

You have a hardware problem. Check with the manufacturer of your
system to translates what the beeps mean.

Normally, beeps appear when you first turn on the computer. I have no
idea what they mean when the computer is already running and you're in
Windows.
