Inventor makes the sound "LIKE A CHURCH BELL OR SOMETHING!" because the window is already open, I suspect.  That means that it is not visible either because it is hidden by something else, or that it is off the screen.

Try this:

• click the tool button (Replace Model Reference in Drawing)
• Type Alt-Space M (Windows Move command), followed by one of the arrow keys
• the window should now be attached to your mouse cursor-- click to place in a useful location

If this doesn't produce the Replace Model Reference dialog, then your problem is beyond my pay grade...
