Post lm_sensors trigger pc buzzer beeping continuously


hello all,
i use a gigabyte mobo with i915GV chipset and only CPU temperature sensor available.now i configure it with`sensors-detect` and it detected driver `it87'.the problem is during booting itself after sometime it triggers PC beeping continuously.am quoting results below.
Quote:
Driver `it87' (should be inserted):
Detects correctly:
* ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
Chip `ITE 8712F Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)
To make the sensors modules behave correctly, add these lines to
/etc/modprobe.conf:

#----cut here----
# I2C module options
alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
#----cut here----

To load everything that is needed, add this to some /etc/rc* file:

#----cut here----
# I2C adapter drivers
modprobe i2c-isa
# I2C chip drivers
modprobe it87
# sleep 2 # optional
/usr/bin/sensors -s # recommended
#----cut here----
now one think i noticed is `sensors` gave all o/p along with CPU temp(correctly)~33degrees and the non-existent M/B temp as -55 and temp3 as -12degrees.
so i disabled those temps by ignore temp1 and temp3 and ran `sensors -s`.no luxk yet as still beeps.help me ppl,it really hurts this beeping pals.

I think your question might be better answered on the lm-sensors mailing list:

I use lm-sensors, but did not have your specific problem so I can't offer much help. I did have a boot problem after installing lm-sensors though. It hung in POST and wouldn't boot!!! I was unable to boot until I disabled "Show H/W Monitor in POST" in my BIOS. After disabling that setting (which had always been enabled previously) I was able to boot. Then I reenabled that setting and was able to boot still. It's been fine ever since.
