    I started up my laptop this morning and this happened so I looked up the beep codes which said 3 was most likely a memory issue and went into task manager to check and found this? Not using anything excessive, went through and checked background processes as well, I know windows using about 60% of ram to run is normal for an 8G ram laptop but this is really high and the lowest ive seen it go today is 70% Can anyone help? Let me know if any more details are needed. Thank you.

      The cpu at 93% and the memory at 80% means that your cpu and ram are operating at a very high percentage at idle for a Win-11 laptop, I don't know what is your Aspire 114-33 laptops exact cpu spec and if its got the high-end Pentium® Silver N6000 or the lower end cpu's of the Celeron® N5100 or the Celeron® N4500 cpu's, as at 8GB ram and with the lower end Celeron cpu's and with the Win-11 OS I would upgrade the ram to this laptops max ram capacity of 16GB total into its 2x ram modules by adding an additional 8GB DDR4-3200MHz module type ram or if you have 2x 4GB DDR4-3200MHz change it to 2x 8GB DDR4-3200MHz modules.

      As doing this upgrade will improve the balance of the cpu to ram performance of your A114-33 laptop considerably especially if you have either the Celeron® N5100 or the Celeron® N4500 cpus and will stop the beeping as the only reason that you are getting those beeps is because your laptops ram is overworking. Good luck and hope this helps you oot.
