However I have never had a laptop make sounds I didn't understand.  And, if
the harddrive began making extra noises, I knew to devote all remaining
session time to updating backups.

But my Inspiron 1721 makes weird noises.

1. Mystery Beep

Does it sound like bios beep?

Maybe have some power problems.

Can you check are cables and connectors inside laptop loose?
I'm notice that sometimes just a gentle push without hearing any click or feel it can fix things.

Is it power adapter functional? Can you measure power with multimeter and twist around jack that entering in laptop?
