Ocasionally after my PC has been on for a day or so I will start to get system beeps(i would describe the sound but ive got some themes going...probably not standard)...anyhow, im using Win 7 Pro x64, with the rig in my sig. Its not affecting performance(that I know of), its just annoying....not sure whats causing it, never had it before(and i was using Win 7 since Beta)....only occurs on this install, which is coincidentally the only upgrade ive ever done....maybe its something to do with the upgrade from WIn XP to Win 7 ??(i took advantage of the student discount).......

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Have you checked the event viewer for anything that would report errors? (Do you know how?)
If not click on Start -> "eventvwr" -> hit enter.

Exactly what I was going to say... my servers will do that at work when there is a system error of some sort.
k, found some critical events...happen ever 3 days on average(after 3 days of straight run time)... getting the following:
i tried searching for it on microsoft help, but there is nothing, no result(even when the program itself uploads the problem) SHould i submit this with microsoft support maybe ??(this issue has happened 4 times, and basically my envrionment just freezes, i cant open anything at all, just use what is already open, not even task manager will open, and the shutdown button on screen does not work)
should i log something with microsoft for this ??? as for the beep i get ocasionally (over 20k events for it, it is Event ID 7036, says: pquote] The computer Browser service entered the ___ state."
where the ___ is either stopped or started[/quote]
the info on microsofts site said this needed no action..the noise is just annoying any idea how to end it ???

You may want to try downloading and running Memtest and also Drive Fitness Test. Definitely worth a shot.
If those tests pass, it may be related to the upgrade install. I know on here a lot of problems have been resolved by doing clean installs of Win 7/Vista rather then upgrading from XP.

with the student upgrade option, is it possible to do a freash install ???? I may be able to do an install from win vista 32 bit to 7 64 bit, need to see if i can find a disk for it.....ill give those two a shot and see what happens.
is there a 64 bit version of mem test ???? i just tried it, and it wont run(i got the x86 donwload i guess)

I found out today that iRiver is giving a .iso download for those who bought the student upgrade and are using a 32 bit OS....i sent in a support thing asking for it, will give that a go ..... my problems may be from me making my own ISO of the files 
[used the method outlined here to do it: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/30470-make-bootable-iso-student-d-l.html , maybe thats the flaw ???]
also, the compleate OS freeze has disapeared so far since i put my ram back up to its rated speed(1600)...

hmm, interesting, as I dont have sleep enableded on my machine(to my knowledge i though i disabled it), that might be the problem then, my current uptime is 1 day 17.5 hours, so if it follows suit i wont know if upping ram speed was the problem for another day or so....ill have to go check and see if sleep is diasbled....thanks
