Isn't there a website that has audio files of bps? Do any of you know where it's located?

There is no magic way to get a tone that is more precise than the quartz crystal in your sound card. I have a sound card that has a known offset from its calibration in sound generating mode in TuneLab. When I go to that website and play A400, I get a tone that is off by exactly the amount indicated by the TuneLab calibration. So if you get exactly A440, then you aare just lucky that your soundcard was not very far off.
