I was using my PC normally, and all of the sudden, I hear three loud beeps.

I Googled, and it said that beeps from a computer may indicate problems with the BIOS or RAM. Some sites say that three beeps may indicate keyboard problems. I just got this computer six months ago, and I don't want to lose it. What's the problem?

Were you holding down keys at the time? Some PCs beep if you hold enough keys down. It could mean a fan failure or a high temperature.

No, I was watching a video on Youtube, and that's when it happened.

Are the fan failures and high temperatures big issues?

EDIT: It just beeped at me 4 times. I'm getting worried.

Download Speccy and see if can return your CPU temperatures and such, next time it beeps, take a look and see what the temperatures are at.
