I have a G4 800MHz TiBook that produces three short 'hissing "

sound similar to the beeps,
Does anyone know what this means?
Never heard a PB hiss! Perhaps they're error beeps but something is
foo with the audio too?
I think (not positive) that three beeps means that none of the memory
slots passed the self-test. This is different from one beep or a
breaking glass sound, with indicates that no RAM was detected.
Try zapping the pram, removing the memory, etc.
