TSGL: Computer beeps frequently

[H Davis]

Hasanat,

56C sounds really high. I use a free utility to monitor my disk temp and 
mine runs at about 38C when it's not doing anything strenuous. A few 
degrees higher when it's working hard.

The program I use is called HDD Thermometer and can be found at 
http://www.rsdsoft.com/. The program's suggested settings are a warning 
at 40C and a critical indication at 55C.

I don't keep the program running all the time but run it occasionally to 
check the disk temp.
