Hey everyone! I have a power supply problem. I unplugged my computer and stuck the power cord into another pc. When I was done with that pc I plugged it back into my other one. When I did this a flash came from the power supply and also an electrical hum. Assuming that my mobo isn't fried, I bouhgt anothe rpower supply and installed it. When I powered up the PC I got a warning sound I have never heard. It sounds like a siren from a British cop car! Like OOOWEEOOOWEE!anyone know what the problem is? Please let me know if you kbow whats going on.
Thanks for any help!

or maybe it was when the fan on the CPU went dead and it was a temp warning!!

either way open the case and look to see if fans are running if they are enter BIOS and check the Health status page
