Hya Pctrouble , welcome to PCHF.

Do you recoqnise the beebs with one from this list?


Basic Beep Codes for ABIT AWARD BIOS Motherboards:

No beep at all - this means your motherboard is dead, either due to a
defective or underpowered power supply, poorly seated CPU or RAM, or a
dead-on-arrival board

One beep - board is working fine

One long beep then machine shuts down - faulty, improperly installed or
missing CPU

1 short(Beep) System booting is normally

2 short(Beep) CMOS setting error

1 long - 1 short(Beep) DRAM ERROR

1 long - 2 short(Beep) Display card or monitor connected error

1 long - 3 short(Beep) Keyboard Error

1 long - 9 short(Beep) ROM Error

Long(Beep) continuous DRAM isn't inserted correctly

Short(Beep) continuous POWER supply has a problem

A two-tone siren, generally caused by overheating or out of specification
voltages

Four beeps then machine shuts down. This is because this version of the BIOS
will shut down your machine if no fan tachometer signal is detected on the
fan header. Make sure you attach a fan to the FAN1 or FAN4 header or clear
CMOS to reset to default (no checking).

thanks joe5

its a 2 tone beep like HIGH pitch Low pitch HIGH pitch Low pitch over and over
happens in games then the game starts running jerky and slow

joe5 ive just opened my pc and the fan on the cpu is having trouble spining
but the cpu isnt overheating?? ive blasted an icy fan in there before also

someone please reply , need help

The beeps you are encountering are heat related. If your cpu fan is not spinning well your cpu will overheat.

Have you tried cleaning the fan out? Or putting a little oil around the fan blades?

Yup , a not proper working cpu fan could very well be the problem.

If the above doesn't work then its probebly a good idea to get a new fan.
