Yellow light blinking

I just notice a yellow light blinking, two green lights & now this yellow light. A yellow blinking light means ther is something wrong right? Couple of weeks back I installed a new sound card, had to move the Gfx card to the other PCI-e slot so the sound card could fit cause the gfx card fan was in the way.

After installation was done went into Bios just checked everything in there, couldn't disable the onboard sound there was no option in the bios but I uninstalled it in windows. PCI-e states enabled. There was just one option about the PCI-e no PCI-e slot one or slot 2.

The fans are also louder than usual thou this pc the fans have always been quite loud.

This is a custom built pc (bought custom build, not built by me) have checked if gfx & sound card are in ther slots properly, pc has been running fine since the card installation no lock ups or anything just normal.

Oh I never connected a cord from the sound card to the dvd drive cause I never had one but it stated to do this in the Sound card manual would this cause the blinking light

no cord lets flash a yellow light to startle the owner kinda thing.

Temperature in bios is normal for cpu and fans

This yellow light is causing me to go all paranoid
