    I just dusted out my whole computer really well, including my nvidia geforce 8800 gts card. The reason I did this was because 20 minutes into a game of starcraft 2 my computer would crash and I figured it was a dust related problem. Anyways after I plugged everything back in and powered my pc on the gpu would beep loudly and would not stop. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks for any help or insight you can give me.

    Specs:
    3200 amd dual core
    geforce 8800 gts
    2 gigs ddr ram
    wireless card
