I've got the following rig;

q6600 [email protected]
4x1gb OCZ ram
IP35-Pro
2x320gb HDD
2x500gb HDD
SATA DVD-RW
8800GTX
Corsair 650W PSU

When i boot my machine from cold i get 1 single error beep that lasts about 1 second the instant that i press the power button, however, the machine goes on to post and boot correctly (you get the second 'everything okay beep' after a few seconds) and the machine is prime stable for 8+ hours.

There are no error beeps on a warm boot/reset and as the machine runs without any issues at all i can't decide whether i should just ignore this or whether i should investigate further.

Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?

many thanks
