chirp from motherboard speaker RBM 05-04-08

In the middle of the night, the motherboard speaker began to chirp about
every 60 seconds. The machine had been off for about 6 hours. I disconnected
my PC speakers and turned off the switch on the back of the pc, but it
continued to chirp every 60 seconds until I pulled the speaker connection
off the board. This is an Asus P4C800-E- Deluxe, and there is nothing in the
book regarding any chirp. I reconnected it in the morning and it wouldn't
chirp. I did replace the CMOS battery thinking it could be a low batt
warning, but I haven't been able to find out anything definitive. Any help
appreciated

Did you leave a cell phone or other wireless device in proximity of the
speakers?
That will cause the same thing.
