Acer Aspire ES 15.6

Beeps in groups of 3 and sometimes the screen flashes this is not at post
it does this intermittently every half hour or so 
laptop is not hot and CPU usage is low , only a year old only used for email and browsing.

 I put my hand underneath it was not hot.

the beeping started about a year back but it was only once in awhile. Not even daily back then. It started with 3 beeps and then would go away. Its slowly progressed into a 3 or 4 times a day and those 3 beeps can sometimes last for over a minute. I usually turn off the laptop and I`m good for awhile. While its beeping everything is frozen (mouse and all). To turn the laptop off I have to hold down the power button for 8 to 10 seconds . I guess I`m just used to everything because I can get around it for now. Who knows, the beeping someday might never go away and of course its out of the warranty period.
