    anyone know what this means? Is it code for some sort of hard drive damage? It seems to run fine once it's on though. I'm typing on it right now.

    do you have external speakers,or an external sound card?
    it's when it`s detecting them...that`s where the beep comes from. I`ve been having it ever since I plugged them in :)
