    Does this hard drive support AHCI?

    It's an MSI G31TM-P21. This one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813130234 I'm having trouble finding out if it supports AHCI...would it still be worth buying a SSD if it does not? EDIT: Meant to write motherboard in the title. ;o

    Help! Computer randomly beeps.

    I dunno, I'm pretty sure it's a beep, and not the hard drive skipping or something. I've googled my particular hard drives and haven't found any reports of them beeping. These are the specific model numbers, the seagate is my boot drive: ST3500410AS WDC WD1001FALS-00J7B1

    Help! Computer randomly beeps.

    Update: I have upgraded my video card to an ATI 4770. I replaced my OEM cpu cooler with a Scythe Mugen 2, and used IC Diamond 7 thermal paste. I replaced my old case fans with new ones. I removed my old sound card and am using my motherboard's audio. I replaced the motherboard battery as...

    Help! Computer randomly beeps.

    Heh...it couldn't hurt to try... The beep is pretty much constant, but every once in a while it seems to "half-beep". The beep ends prematurely, so it ends up being more of a chirp sound. It's definitely coming form the same place, though.

    When I clicked stop, I got an error which said: "The system encountered the following error when attempting to stop the device: The service did not respond to the stop or control request in a timely fashion." I have disabled the beep (and than restarted) my computer before though, and still...

    Yes, it beeps when idle and under load, there isn't any noticeable difference. I have disabled every smart fan/temperature warning I could find in the bios. I also disabled the "Beep" in windows services, and it still beeped. I will try another keyboard, but since disabling the beep service...

    Help! Computer randomly beeps.

    It happens when I'm not even using my computer, so I don't think it is a key combination being pressed. It's just a quick beep, it lasts maybe a half second. There are no critical problem in event viewer, and only a handful of errors/warnings (mostly just application errors). I'll try...

    Help! Computer randomly beeps.

    I've tried that, and nothing changed. Thanks for the help, though. This is what is under pc health status (took the picture from another website): I can't seem to find any place with an alarm. I believe I did everything correctly when applying assembling the cpu. I get beeps sometimes...

    Help! Computer randomly beeps.

    I couldn't find any settings in the bios, but I did realize my bios were out of date (their numbering system is strange). One of the fixes I saw was: - Fixed BIOS report incorrect CPU temperature so hopefully that has fixed it, but I'll have to leave it running for a bit. On another note...
