Disarmer
Man I hope someone can help me with this!
A couple of weeks my the computer suddenly shut down and started to
make a pretty high sound. The sound comes from the front of the case,
from the case speaker. The sound doesn't stop until I cut the power
on the back of the case. After this happened the first time I cut the
power and waited a few minutes and then turned on the power again.
After that everything worked fine until the next day then the same
thing happened again. After the second time the computer's been
working fine about two weeks, until today. It happened like before,
only this time I couldn't start the computer again. Now the computer
turns of in the middle of booting. Sometimes I get so far so that
windows start to boot, sometimes it takes about 5 seconds before the
computer shuts down.
The thing I find strange is that the case continue to make the sound
even after the computer has shut down. I actually have to cut the
power completely before it stops. The sound is hard to describe, but
it hasn't the same soundstrength all the time. It's like an
alarm-sound with intervalls of noice and is pretty high in strength.
I haven't changed my system for a while and I haven't had any other
problems at all. I've got the whole cooling thing down so shouldn't
be that the system is to hot.
My specs:
AMD Athlon XP 2400+
Two 256mb DDR RAM PC2700
Geforce TI-4600 128mb
Western digital caviar 80mb IDE
Abit NF7-S motherboard
