Computer turns makes beeping sounds

I would check to make sure that no keys are stuck down, if they are they oveload a buffer in the computer and the beeping will drvie you crazy. Get some compressed air and blow under the keys or you can vacuum them sideways don't do it straight down or you'll **** the keys off :)

Remove the memory (RAM). Clean its contact points by an eraser. Fix it. If it does not work, try using another slot. If it still does not work,replace it with new.

hi Robin.
if your computer is making a beeping sound when it starts. No, you're not crazy, your computer really is beeping, and the sound may be coming from inside your computer, not your speakers.
These beeps are called beep codes and are used by the BIOS (the software that runs your computer hardware) during the POST (an initial test to make sure your computer is OK to start) to report certain initial system errors. If you're hearing beep codes after you turn your computer on, it typically means that the motherboard has encountered some kind of problem before it was able to send any kind of error information to the monitor. The beeping, then, is a way to communicate a problem to you when the computer can't show a proper error on the screen.
Follow the steps below to determine what computer problem the beep code is representing. Once you know what's wrong, you can work to fix the issue.

How to Troubleshoot Beep Codes

Figuring out why your computer is making beeping sounds should only take 10 to 15 minutes. Solving that problem that you identify is another task entirely and could take a few minutes to hours, depending on what the problem ends up being.

1. Power on the computer, or restart it if it's already on.
2. Listen very carefully to the beep codes that sound when the computer begins to boot.
   
   Restart your computer if you need to hear the beeping again. You're probably not going to make whatever problem you have worse by restarting a few times.

1. Write down, in whatever way makes sense to you, how the beeps sound.
   
   Important: Pay close attention to the number of beeps, if the beeps are long or short (or all the same length), and if the beeping repeats or not. There is a big difference between a "beep-beep-beep" beep code and a "beep-beep" beep code.
   
   I know this might all seem a little crazy but this is important information that will help determine what issue the beep codes are representing. If you get this wrong, you'll be trying to solve a problem your computer doesn't have and ignoring the real one.

1. Next you'll need to figure out what company manufactured the BIOS chip that's on your computer motherboard. Unfortunately, the computer industry never agreed on a uniform way to communicate with beeps, so it's important to get this right.
   
   The easiest way to figure this is out is by installing one of these free system information tools, which should tell you if your BIOS is made by AMI, Award, Phoenix, or another company. If that doesn't work, you could open your computer and take a peek at the actual BIOS chip on your computer motherboard, which should have the company name printed on or next to it.
   
   Important: Your computer maker is not the same as the BIOS maker and your motherboard maker is not necessarily the same as the BIOS maker, so don't assume you already know the right answer to this question.
2. Now that you know the BIOS manufacturer, choose the troubleshooting guide below based on that information:
   
   • AMI Beep Code Troubleshooting (AMIBIOS)
   • Award Beep Code Troubleshooting (AwardBIOS)
   • Phoenix Beep Code Troubleshooting (PhoenixBIOS)
   Using the beep code information specific to those BIOS makers in those articles, you'll be able to figure out exactly what's wrong that's causing the beeping, be it a RAM issue, a video card problem, or some other hardware problem.
3. Try to turn off beep sound in the BIOS

More Help with Beep Codes

Some computers, even though they may have BIOS firmware made by a particular company, like AMI or Award, further customize their beep-to-problem language, making this process a little frustrating. If you think this might be the case, or just worried it could be, almost every computer maker publishes their beep code list in their user guides, which you can probably find online.

Hello,

A beep sound can be due to memory problem.

First use the following steps:

1 Turn off the system and disconnect power cables
2 Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds
3 Reconnect power cables and try to turn it on.

If you still get a continuous beep sound, the next step will be to re-seat memory modules (after turning off the system).

Cardinal Rule 1
Dont use ur expensive computer for Games, go to a galeriya
Cardinal Rule 2
Beeping while playing games is a part of the computer's operation...or it can be part of that game.

Some times ur accessories (like ur printer/USB device/mouse etc) is not connected properly...

if the sound is from the PC's speaker then it can be disabled but u will also not get the games sound.

but if it's from your PC's external speaker then u have to live with it or u can mute ur speakers.

Here is a list computer beeps and what they mean.

• No Beeps: Short, No power, Bad CPU/MB, Loose Peripherals
• One Beep: Everything is normal and Computer POSTed fine
• Two Beeps: POST/CMOS Error
• One Long Beep, One Short Beep: Motherboard Problem

• One Long Beep, Two Short Beeps: Video Problem
• One Long Beep, Three Short Beeps: Video Problem
• Three Long Beeps: Keyboard Error
• Repeated Long Beeps: Memory Error
• Continuous Hi-Lo Beeps: CPU Overheating
  

Most times the beeping is caused by a bad/loose connection somewhere or card not seated properly.
Try disconnecting and reconnecting everything again. Make sure that all the power plugs are connected properly even if you didn't mess with them. Moving things around can sometimes be enough to give you the "BEEPS". ";-}


If you are still having much beeping and no computing you can try my personal favorite.

Start first with verbal threats. Next move to a second floor window and, while you explain whats going to happen if it doesn't knock it off, open the window.

If that fails give it the pitch.
Believe it or not I have used this technique and after reassembly and repair.....No more beep.

I hope this helps but if not let me know and we will try something else.

If it beeps and not boot then it is the post routine telling you there is a problem. The post routine is run when you turn the power on to ensure the computer hardware is ok to run. The manufacturer of the bios routine can tell what is wrong by the type, number and duration of the beeps. Look up the code meanings and it will indicate the problem. If this sounds like nonsense to you then give the make and model of your machine and what the beeps sound like. ( beep beep beep delay beep beep beep) etc. and I'll look it up for you.

3 beeps POST code (power on self test) means RAM problem.
Reseat the RAM module/s and boot up your computer.
If you have two RAM modules, remove them both and insert one at a time to test them, to determine which module is faulty.
If it still doesn't work then replace the RAM module/s

Maybe the horizontal IC output are damaged need to be replaced

hmmm...that's not good. works fine with no battery. I suspect your motherboard may be taking a vacation from working soon.

got backup for your HP?
