Computer started beeping and will not restart

Please post the model number and if any light is flashing or any code on display if it has a display. Thank you

See if the computer will start in safe mode.
Steps to get in to safe mode: Make sure the computer is OFF not in sleep or hibernate mode.
Start computer and tap on the F8 key till you see a text screen that gives you the: Start windows in safe mode with networking.
Select that startup. If the computer doesn't start and you get the same beep - Then you have a possible hardware related issue.
If the beep is actually a number of beeps - this would relate to your system memory. Hope this help you in figuring out your issue.

Have a great night.

that isn't a model number and kenmore doesn't make anything so you have to send the full model number off of the dryer,open the door look around the opening where you put the clothes in and send the model number,if it's beeping and starting on it's own it sounds like you have a computer board problem with it but can't help you without the model number.

Never heard of a Harddrive beeping before, but I'll take your word for it.

The beeps you hear are BIOS Beep Codes.
The computer's way if telling you something is wrong, and an area to look into for it.

The beeps are a pattern, or Code.
For example; 1 Long beep, a pause; then 3 Short beeps.

One Short beep, pause, Short Beep, pause; and repeating over, and over.

So....................in your own words Eric, tell the jury where you were on the night in question?
Do you have any alibi's?

WHAT? !O_O!

I mean................what is the beep code you hear?

Plus what is the Product Number of the HP desktop computer?
This can be found on the back of the computer, in the white Service Tag.
P/N = Product Number

The beep codes indicate there is a problem keeping it from starting. You code post the model, etc. of the computer, and the number of beeps, and if there are long or short beeps. Mostly these are memory and/or video. If you can, disconnect the hard drive, cd, and any extra cards (sound card, modem, network). Re-seat (remove and re-install) RAM and video card, then try it again. Re-post if you are still getting beep codes with # of beeps, etc.

you can clear bios password by clearin cmos you will find a three pin conecter in which two pin shorted repmve the shorter and and connect to the other two restart the computer if the computer dest light up dont worry replace the conector to the early position now restart the computer your bios password will be cleared if this dint work remove the cmos battry and restrt arplace the pattry aftewr u shutdown the computer

What Windows update type/number is this?

the system can beep for many reasons here is a site that may help you http://www.technick.net/public/code/cp_dpage.php?aiocp_dp=guide_beep_codes

The beep you hear is your BIOS trying to alert you to an error in the POST (power on self test) routine. Without knowing the manufacturer of your motherboard one can't be certain what the beeps indicate...see this link for more info: http://www.5starsupport.com/info/beep_codes.htm
It's possible you have some kind of infestation, and it's possible there's something more systemic, but without knowing the make and model of your system I couldn't say.
Sometimes three beeps indicates a keyboard error...you could try another keyboard or unplug yours and see if it will boot up "normally" without it.
Otherwise, report back with some more info and we'll take it from there.
