Just curious if anyone else had a strange beep after closing the lid. It doesn't seem to do it every time. Seems like it happens more when I have been watching video or doing things that bump temp and fan speeds. It is just a quiet little "beep". Only does it once.

Any one else get this?

I've had my hard drive click when closing the lid. It's quite soft too, maybe that's what you're hearing?

I've been getting this too

Just started a few days ago. Every so often, randomly, not necessarily when I close the lid, it will just make this little digital electronic raspy beep sound. Maybe once or twice a day with heavy use. It's never done this before. I've had mine about 6 months and did all the updates of late.

I hear what may be the same noise. I'd describe it as more of a CHIRP. It happens anywhere from 1-4 seconds after I close the computer.

OMG just had this for the first time ever; jumped out of my skin. I wasn't even closing it!
