Beep sound while Shutting down XPS 8500


Issue : Beep sound while Shutting down XPS 8500

Discussion : The sound is produced by the video card when it senses that it's "underpowered"; apparently, video cards receive their current on slight delay from other devices on the motherboard, but many also receive power from the psu - so when you shut-down, there's a brief under-powered moment to the video card which causes the beep on shutdown.
Beep on shutdown will not cause any issues.
