My computer made beeping noises on start up.

Like the title, my internet was screwing up so I restarted my computer but when I booted it up it started making beeping sounds on the Starting Windows thing. What does this mean? Will my computer be okay?

what kind of beeping?
was it regular, like a metronome?
or erratic and seemingly random, like something that is erratic and seemingly random?

It's communicating with you. Kill it, before it evolves.

Well it sounded like an alarm clock but a lot quieter and subtle But after it got done with the starting windows screen it stopped.

It was more like a
beeeeeep
beep
beep
beep

How fast was the beeping?

Moderate speed, it wasn't rapid or anything like maybe a 1 second pause between each beep.

Not entirely sure they went that way but it happened about an hour ago. I read a few things about motherboard problems? Or RAM problems?

Well there is a possibility that your computer just likes to beep. I'm on an HP and it beeps randomly... Stupid high pitched random beeps.

Mine does that too usually when it gets too hot. But I just finished a system restore and it did not beep this time so that's good. Leaving the topic open though if anybody has any input.
