Hello, Dazraz.

Welcome to ElevenForum.


I'm not sure this will be helpful to you, but may be worth a read... Troubleshoot beep codes


Good luck. :wink:

Can you describe it? Is it a short buzz, a prolonged buzz, a beep or something else?

    Dell says this system is not Windows 11 capable, but Microsoft seems happy with it.

I occasionally hear those sounds as well. In my case, they sound like one of those sounds made, when I close an image editor with an open image in there, and it wants to notify me that I'll lose the image if I close the program.

Long story short... I just ignore them. I think it's just a W11 glitch.
Nothing bad or even noticeable has ever happened after one of those sounds.


If there's any patern to when or why I hear them... I haven't been able to find it in almost a year of looking.

If you have an Acer laptop as I do then the bios makes a beep whenever the power cord is connected or disconnected. More here:
