I'm afraid questions like this are off topic on Server Fault, so this question will probably be closed. In the meantime, have you checked to see if chassis intrusion detection is turned on in your computer's BIOS? If so, turn it off. – DJ Pon3 Dec 31 '11 at 10:58

Wherever this ends up we're going to need to know which motherboard it is. – Iain♦ Dec 31 '11 at 10:58
Add some info about the machine (series/model/generation + motherboard and chipset model etc.) – Mathias R. Jessen Dec 31 '11 at 13:00

Check that your chassis is closed correctly and/or switch of the intrusion detection in the BIOS.

Some computers have a intrusion detection (a switch that is normally pressed down by the chassis) that reports unauthorized openings of the case in order to prevent attackers to modify your system without your knowledge.
