SIW2 -- is there a quick way to determine if the audio is generated from something aboard the motherboard or from any particular software-only glitch? And which device is making the noise - onboard mb squawker or from one or both speakers?

I open up the Laptop, press the power on button and an Alarm begins to Screech!
+-30 seconds later, the Screeching stops and Windows-7 Pro is loading.
Once Windows-7 is finished loading, the Laptop functions normally.
That's it!
