    Hello. I have a very annoying problem with my dell 1520. It happens about twice a week, and only when I watch a movie over WLAN, I think. I don't know if it's a coincidence or not . The computer stops responding, and after a few seconds a very loud , continous beep comes out. The only thing I can do is to turn it off.

    I only have the notebook for 2 month so it's pretty upseting. :mad:

    Another thing : from time to time , when booting , it gives a warning that it can't recognise the AC adaptor.

    If this happened to some of you or you know what causes it, please help me !

    (sorry for misspelling, if any)
