Thanks for the reply. (is alienware club an official dell subforum?)
Anyway. It seems the beep had no bios or hardware cause.
I removed the usb stick that was plugged in the whole time. Doesn't make sense since (for me) it's not the first time i booted up while a usb stick is in the front slots.
And i noticed that the bios default settings are =|= dell factory settings (factory overclocked machine). The settings are definitly not default settings. And USB is deactivated for any boot sequence.
It still beeps very very shortly on startup wich i recall is normal. The beep from before was without a doubt a common hardware beep (~1 sec long)
Problem solved, it seems.
Still strange though. As i said USB is not active in boot sequences and also is not formated as such. Just contains pictures and .rar files

You might get a better response if you re-post this in the Alienware Club forum.
