This could be your sound drivers (not necessarily a virus).

Try updating to the latest version for your sound card/motherboard?

What automatically makes you assume that it's a virus? This noise could be coming from the BIOS?

Like does it sound after Windows has loaded and the login screen is displayed, during the loading, or when you're logging in to your user? Or when you're booting up and it's at the BIOS stages?
