Another Computer Tech Question
Today, I was playing my computer during a moderate storm. There was a flicker of the lights and the computer rebooted itself. It then rebooted itself two more times and then I turned it off until the storm passed. Now, I'm playing a game and periodically I hear a few soft beeps. It's usually 3 or 5 in a row and they are occuring two to three times per hour. Everything on the computer appears to be functioning normally, and there are no other problems. Any thoughts on what the beeps might be? Should I be worried about them? (I'm obviously already worried since the beeps weren't there before the storm.)

Usually if you get to the trouble shooting part of the manual, it will tell you what the beeps are.

Could be memory errors. But I'd read your motherboard manual (look online for it if you don't have it handy) and see what the beeps mean.

I've run multiple diagnostics: memory, processors, and everything else I can think of to test is testing as working perfectly. I'm not getting any errors either. Also, the beeps have stopped since I've stopped playing HOMM5. However, the game played perfectly (despite the beeps) for many hours today after the storm. Very odd.
