Take a look at your motherboard manual. The back of it should have a guide to beeps.


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Nathan on 02-25-2006 at 09:24 AM

Havn't got one :$


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by ddunk on 02-25-2006 at 09:25 AM

Search the internet for it then, it should be available.


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Anubis on 02-25-2006 at 09:45 AM

This problem, as Ddunk said, is very likely an error that your motherboard is telling you about by making this noise. However it may be something as simple as if you have an external graphics card (in a PCI slot) that it needs to be secured; if you have an external graphics card (in a PCI slot) take it out and put it back in.

Nope I dont I have a gpu in the agp slot ;)
I have a network card in the pci slot though!


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by [MR] on 02-25-2006 at 05:27 PM

take the little battery out of the motherboard and then out it back it.

RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by lizard.boy on 02-25-2006 at 06:46 PM

its not just the clock, its also for all your bios/cmos settings.


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Ghost_Stalker on 02-25-2006 at 06:56 PM

Usually, a long beep is your video card. If your motherboard has integrated video, remove the AGP card and try booting your PC. Or try the video card in another PC.


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by saralk on 02-25-2006 at 07:03 PM

if you know what brand of motherboard you have, you can do a search on google for it.

or go to http://bioscentral.com/ and choose the beep codes page relating to your motherboard

from a very quick check. it could be that you have a memory problem, check your ram sticks are securely in etc...

Yep tried that... Made no difernence Ahhh well I will just get saving up for a new pc ;)
It will take me about a year though :D
RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Adeptus on 02-25-2006 at 07:15 PM

I am assuming you mean an endless, steady beep.  If not and there's actually some pattern (sequences of short beeps, long beeps, etc.) try to describe them as accurately as you can.

For steady and erratic beeping, one of the things I'd try is replacing the keyboard.  If you have a another one in the house, try switching it out and see if it makes any difference.


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Nathan on 02-25-2006 at 07:17 PM

Tis like this Beeeeeep <space><then it restarts> Beeeeeep <space><then it restarts> etc etc


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Reaper on 02-25-2006 at 07:21 PM

do you know the motherboard make?


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by guanako on 02-25-2006 at 07:30 PM

something like that happend to me but it was because i removed some RAM and when i put it back i didnt put it right, so i meant that the RAM was not correctly inserted or something. check that.


RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by Nathan on 02-25-2006 at 07:35 PM

I did i put it into a nother socket etc..

RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by [MR] on 02-26-2006 at 03:22 PM

unplug the power plug for about 5 minutes and plug it back in.

How would that help :-/

The beeping is either cause by faulty hardware, or a dodgy bios setting. And upluging the powerplug will make no difference to either of those.
RE: BEEEEEEEP!!!!! by superjugy on 02-26-2006 at 03:35 PM
