Computer gives intermittent short beeps during use

Hello,
I'm having a problem with my computer: during normal use it gives short beeps, sometimes
just one and then it's silent for a few hours, sometimes a whole cascade. I've already
pulled out the BIOS speaker cable and deactivated the temperature warning in the
BIOS, even chucked out all the extra hardware, but to all no avail. Thing is, XP
works just fine for the rest; I can't tell anything is wrong, and in the BIOS I don't
see any problems with temperature (+- 50 degrees C) or fan speeds (1500-2000rpm).
Am I missing something here, could it be the power supply or something? Anyone ever
seen this before? The board is an MSI KM2M-Combo.
regards,
Jynx

Is the pattern consistent? Is there any errors evident in your device manager?
Maybe this link will help. http://www.computerhope.com/beep.htm
