Hi all,
I am after some ideas please.
My motherboard is a Z390 steel legend, processor i9-9900k, 64GB Corsair Vengeance RAM, Gigabyte RTX2060 graphics.
Not sure if any other info will help apart from OS which is Win10Pro x64.
Every so often, just after booting into Windows or when doing perhaps a large WinZip operation, there is a long beeping emitted from the case, solid beep, same kind of noise that the BIOS would make in the event of a BIOS boot issue but instead of short bursts this one goes on for seconds and then stops.
The machine then carries on as normal!
Does anyone have any experience of such a phenomenon or can point me in he right direction for ideas please?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Paul

Dear Sidewinder,
Thanks for posting your query to the forum.
Regarding your question, let's try the following steps:
1. Clear CMOS. (To clear CMOS, please refer to the pg.19 from the link below)

2. Install only the CPU, CPU fan, and one RAM on the system.
With thanks,
ASRock TSD

Did that, it didn?™t exhibit the symptom.
However, once rebuilt with enough hardware to be used for real then it still does it.
Then it would not as it only does this when windows is loading all startup programmes, or undertaking a large WinZip operation, i.e. when the machine is being stretched, processor & RAM wise.

Could be a PSU issue. Is it older or maybe newer and a bit under powered?
Long ago when POST beeps were a thing a long beep would often warn of a PSU,Kb or RAM issue.... I think these days if you have a ram issue then the OS would say something or you'd get some evidence of corruption...so assuming this is the right directions that leaves PSU or Kb... If the system is still responsive during the ebep via KB then it's probably a PSU underpower or some other PSU irregularity...
Not incredibly helpful but if you were going to test you'd need to get hold of a decent PSU and just sit it along side you rig and connect it up to see if you can get the look beep to happen under load..
