PCV-RX514 beep alarm

[biglou]

My VAIO PCV-RX514 has worked perfectly for over a year now.
Until recently, that is... Lately, when it's under load, a high pitched alarm sounds and the power button, which is blue when running and orange when on standby, flashes orange under the blue. This happens often when running Flight Simulator 2004 and Call Of Duty. I've had no problem with these games at all.
Machine is standad except for 2nd stick of 256 RAM and Belkin 54g Wireless PCI card.
