Troubleshooting Steps

Beep Codes

–Ensure that the display/monitor is plugged into a discrete graphic card.

–Ensure that all hard drives and optical drive cables are properly connected to the system board.

–If there is an error message on the screen identifying a problem with a device ( hard drive), check the device to make sure it is functioning properly.

–If the operating system is attempting to boot from a device (optical drive), check system setup to ensure the boot sequence is correct for the devices installed on your computer.

The computer can emit a series of beeps during start-up if the display cannot show errors or problems. These series of beeps, called beep codes, identify various problems. The delay between each beep is 300 ms, the delay between each set of beeps is 3 sec, and the beep sound lasts 300 ms. After each beep and each set of beeps, the BIOS should detect if the user presses the power button. If so, BIOS will jump out from looping and execute the normal shutdown process and power system.
