Mine sounds like a high pitched tone. Sort of like when you rub your finger along the rim of a whine-glass: same kind of tone. Yes! Mine sounds like a high pitched tone.

Did you mean an actual ringing bell alarm? Well, my BIOS has stuff that monitors voltage and fan speed and temperature…

If, for example, the chip starts to overheat because the fan died, then it sends out an alarm. If the fan is working, yet the chip starts to overheat, then it sends more voltage to the fan to make it run faster. ASUS also has it on their main board, but you have to look for it--not all of their boards come with this feature! Buyer Be where! Hey Lily,

ALARMS?? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ALARMS?????? ARGH I can't seem to unbend it. One of my students offerred to try so hopefully it's not damaged beyond repair. *sob* Either that or buy cheapest 754 socket processor on newegg which is about $40! alarms???

ARGH

I can’t seem to unbend it. One of my students offerred to try so hopefully it’s not damaged beyond repair.

*sob*

Either that or buy cheapest 754 socket processor on newegg which is about $40!

It was awful! I thought it was broken beyond repair... one pin was bent; I was lucky, the chip still worked after I straighten it out. In the end, though, the fan stopped working while I was out, and it overheated. Now I only buy boards that have alarms built into them! Yup, I had that happen to me too! It was awful!
