If they aren't beep codes as was mentioned, which by your description I doubt, what 
you are hearing is digital noise (also may sound like a chirping noise) coming from 
either cabling issues, (the cables picking up the noise) interference that the speakers 
can't reject or the most common, built in sound devices (built into the motherboard) 
having bleed over from other digital pathways on the motherboard.  It generally stems 
from the motherboard having a small manufacturing issue (sometimes a design issue) 
or a weak componant.  Probably nothing you can do about it other than replacing the 
motherboard or installing a sound card in an open slot (if it's not a cabling issue). 
 It's a problem that is quite common (as more componants get packed together in a 
small space or integrated chips packing more functions on a chip) and reinstalling 
the operating system won't fix it because it's a hardware issue.

Things like overheating would be a very loud and annoying beeping sound, usually 
before the computer may shut down on it's own.
