Re: Windows 98se

When the laptop turns on, or when windows actually gets round to loading and shows the desktop?

If the latter, check your sounds in control panel and see if someone's set something as the windows startup sound

Re: Windows 98se

Could also be the beeps when a pcmcia driver is loaded.
I believe these can be disabled from the device properties.
