wizzard,
You could clear CMOS.
I think that siren sound at startup generally means the CPU is over heating, though.

computer crashed
My computer won't start. It makes a weird siren noise when i turn it on. The problem started when i adjusted the Cmos setting. I was trying to install norton antivirus and i was trying to take advantage of the trial period, which was a bad idea. So i adjusted my CMOS date settings and changed it to 2010 and install norton and then changed the date back. Now my computer won't even give me a boot up screen. Please help...

Clearing the CMOS will restore the default settings. You'll have to go in back there and re-sellect some settings to get the system to run optimally.
Take off the case cover and look for a jumper close to the battery. Move it from pins 1-2 and put it on pins 2-3. Wait ten minutes and then move it back. Removing the battery itself from the socket does the same thing.
