All right, I have a problem with my computer whenever I turn it on it starts beeping and doesn't stop until it shuts down. The beeping is also in the speakers and it makes it hard to listen to stuff through the speakers.

My question is: Is there anyone who could tell me what the problem may be?
EDIT: okies... I searched and it appears that on most BIOS types, Continuious Beeping means a problem with your Video card or Your Memory (most likely the memory)

may have somthing relevant, but PCs are like small Babies... its hard to tell what the hell they're screaming about sometimes

--- (possibly worth ignoring after Edit... though if you're curious )
this is a quick guess and probably some way of the mark, but you may want to check what temperature your CPU is running at. My PC used to beep when it started to overheat, but only beacuse I had a program that was installed to tell me so... Just press Delete shortly after switching on your computer to enter the BIOS and have a look for the temperature readings... I think you should be getting:

around 40 degrees or cooler for an Intel Processor
around 65 degrees or cooler for an AMD Processor

just don't hold me to that
