Computer warning sounds?

Question

My computer has just started making some concerning sounds, every 5-10 minutes, it makes five high pitched beeps about two seconds apart like something counting down, and then stops...Anyone know what this might be or heard of this before?

I'm not sure if these are system sounds or if they are coming from the speakers, havn't had a chance to check

Answer 1

It could be a bios beep code

Answer 2

It is your computer telling you that your processor is over heating If it does this repeatedly damage will ensue.All computers have this built in..
