One other note: Every now and then I get an error message that says
"excessive line current. May cause damage to your modem. Unplug your
telephone line to avoid damage to your modem" I called the phone
company to ask them if they had overrent on their lines and of course
they said no. Any more ideas?

Possibly a temperature warning or something else that is set to give an

Then any ideas what a single beep from the computer speaker at random
intervals during normal operation might be?

Then it isn't a BIOS beep code since those occur during boot.
