my problem is that i try to get or familys old pc to work, but when i plug it to power it makes an really high beep noise over 100 db and then it stops. then i pressed the start butten on the pc and it just continues. i dont know what is wrong but i can not smell any smoke or stuff but i am still to afraid to let it run as i am pretty sure the bib sound is a warning. i hope somebody can help
