Whenever I turn on my computer, a loud beeping noise (not the fan) comes from within the computer.
It gets really annoying especially in class when its quiet and all you can hear is that loud noise.
I was wondering if it was just the way its supposed to be or if theres something wrong.
It sometimes goes away but then starts up really loud.
As I said, its not the fan because I can hear the fan running in the background of this sound.
Thanks.

Hey, thanks for trying to help! Sorry for the late reply!
I think the continuous beeping sound is coming from the hardrive. My mom has the same computer so I turned hers on, and it did the same thing.
Is this the way it was made?
