Hi there,
Most motherboards if not all will provide you a beep code if there is no RAM on the memory slot.
To fix the issue you would have to determine if the point of failure is the RAM of the Slot on the board. If you have an identical known good working RAM you can try putting that in the board and if the same symptom happens then it means the problem is the slot on the board but if it works the RAM is busted.
Sadly the only fix for this type of issue is to replace the faulty part. (RAM or Motherboard)
Hope this helps!

How to fix 1-2 beep code on gateway dx4870-ub20p

Most computers come with 2 sticks of RAM. If yours only has one skip to the bottom.
Step 1
Start by reinstalling your RAM memory. Pull the pins on each side then remove the sticks of RAM. They should be in there pretty firm. DONT wiggle them out, just pull straight up. Then put them back in with the pins still "out". They should be firm to go in as well, again DONT wiggle just push straight down. Both the side pins should lock into place on there own once the RAM is back place properly.
Step 2
If this still doesnt solve it, pull both back out and only put one back in. If that doesnt work, put the other one in only. If still not working try the next step
Step 3
Uninstall all Ram sticks and reinstall just one in one of the slots. If that doesnt work install same stick in a different slot. If that doesnt work, use a different RAM Stick.

Compaq presario m2000 notebook continuously beeps while starting up. The computer is very slow once fully logged in. Do you have any suggestions to fix these problems?

The beeping usually points to a RAM stick failure. If your laptop has two sticks of RAM then one of them has failed, which further explains the slow performance of the laptop once it's fully loaded.
To troubleshoot this issue, you'll need to remove one RAM stick at a time, and see if the laptop boots at all. When you have only one stick of RAM and the laptop does not load after the beep signal, then that installed RAM stick is bad. You may want to try and clean up the contacts with a cotton cloth and some alcohol just to make sure it's not an oxidized contact issue.

If this was informative and helpful please vote with a Thumb Up. Thank you.

My Dell PowerEdge 600SC server seems to run OK but lately has a beep that is constant....no code just beep....beep....beep...I though it was the UPS system at first

It doesn't match any Dell codes, I even checked on the site. I'd go into device manager & see if there's anything with an exclamation point & fix that first. Check under "my computer" (right click,properties) & see if it's reporting the proper amount of RAM. Then you can check in bios to see how much is showing there & what slot(s) they're in. Hopefully, you will quickly find the issue. A bad RAM stick is the "beep" code that you're hearing on most dektops in general. So if you see in the bios that a RAM stick is not showing or is incorrect in size, remove the suspected stick & re-boot to see if that takes care of the "beep". Then just go buy another stick & be sure to get eec if it requires it. Regular memory doesn't work in most servers.

Problem with RAM sticks. Refix RAM in different slots. If its having more than one RAM , Fix single RAM at a time and check. Check in all available slots. Still you are getting beeps you will have to purchase new RAM sticks

Acer Travelmate beeps 4 times & wont boot

Sounds like a RAM problem. Best bet is to purchase a stick of RAM from a store that will let you try it and return it if the problem is not solved. The beeping is a BIOS error code that signifies that something is wrong with your hardware.

If you have 2 sticks of RAM installed try removing one of them and then if the beep code happens again try to swap them out.
