    Hello i just had to reinstall my os
    but now i'm getting a really annoying beep, whenever something goes wrong
    i've messed aruodn in the sound options but i can't seem to fix it.

    Like when i am tryin to find a word on a page with fierfox and it can't find the word it makes a really really loud beep.
    Anyone have any idea what this is

    Yes...it sounds like the Audio drivers for your notebook are not installed. Go to your device manager and see if you have any devices with some type of warning symbol on them.
