when i ever i play a graphic intensive game my mobo starts to beep randomly. It isn't a set pattern of beeps. i dont think anything is overheating cause i have had that before and it was an alternating beep tone like an ambulance. i have a abit an-7 and my vc is a 9800xt. any suggestions?

It could be heat. but I have a much more likely idea? Are you pushing more than 3 or 4 buttons at once on the keyboard, do you have a PS2 keyboard and a USB mouse.

it starts as soon as i load the game up, before i hit any buttons but maybe a single mouse click to get through the menues. from what you said trunks that narrows it down to a heat problem? if so what do i do about it? by the by- it says that my cpu temp is ~62 C

You may need to reseat the heat sink, being sure to clean everything with alcohol and correctly apply a high-quality thermal paste.
