ermm if you can be more specific, what OS r u using, how many beeps dis you hear etc. You can see here for reference :

now on the troubleshooting part. I guess the house guest have nothing to do with it. Some times the hardware will go berserk out of nothing. Sometimes it's because of power fluctuation and from the previous cases I had before, the System Unit basically your PC is pushed to the wall causing the VGA connection or Keyboard and mouse connector to bent and causes connectivity problem. This may also causes the VGA card connection to the mobo to slide or slant o bit causing hardware error. Here is how you can start
1. Try resetting CMOS by locating the CMOS jumper and shorting it.
2. Boot up
or
1. Take out your VGA card (if any) RAM module and also the SATA/IDE connector from the mobo.
2, Take out the processor (i know it sound ridiculous but believe me.. it sometimes work)
3. Clean it if possible and reconnect all the item properly.
3. Check for VGA cable defect near the connector.
4. Boot up
5. Your system may not boot / boot for a while and shuts down again on first attempt
6. Retry
If there is still an issue, i would say that you may have defected hardware and need replacement. My guess is the RAM module or the MoBo. Defected HD will shows message like "Invalid system disk" or "Non system disk error". I wouldn't say its the OS issue since your system did not pass the POST procedure. Hope you still have the warranty for the PC.
