    Hello there.

    How many beeps were there exactly? You can actually troubleshoot those beeps.
    And was it long or short?

    Any chance that you could upload the dump?

    To enable minidump:
    Go to Start and type in "sysdm.cpl" (without the quotes) and press Enter
    Click on the Advanced tab
    Click on the Startup and Recovery Settings button
    Ensure that "Automatically restart" is unchecked
    Under the Write Debugging Information header select "Small memory dump (64 kB)" in the dropdown box
    Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as "%systemroot%\Minidump" (without the quotes)
    Click OK twice to exit the dialogs, then reboot for the changes to take effect.
    Next time you'll get a BSOD, you'll should have a dump or two in the minidump folder. :)

    i started my comp at 10 in the morning..played the game, watched some movies until 2 pm..after that i put download on utorrent and went away..now i come it shows that after 15 minutes it froze...and 3 hours it has been like that..but now there is nothing in the minidump folder

    i dont know but i have a suspicion that gpu is overheating but there is no explanation why it started suddenly 4 days ago..until that everything was top notch
