    on three different occasions I've experienced an annoying beeping sound coming from my laptop. It is the same alarm that sounds for low battery but I'm plugged in and the battery says it's at 100%. The area over the gpu is barely warm to the touch... could it still be a temp alarm? My fans NEVER turn on full by themselves, and the only game I've played that could challenge the gpu at all is the witcher. I've had this alarm go off while playing the sims 2 also. The laptop is sitting on a glass table top in a cool room and is not obstructed whatsoever.

    hi saintalfonzo. Beep codes typically mean that there is a potential problem with the RAM, CPU or any number of things. My advise to you would be to contact your technical support and tell them about the issue. Also tell them if there is a specific pattern to the beeps as different patterns can indicate specific issues.
