Unfortunately beeps have different codes for different motherboards and unless you know what make it is; you are probably better to e mail Toshiba technical for help as there are no references on their knowledge base. Although this may be a memory fault or a processor/heat problem.

Laptop beep code problem

Hi,laptops beep codes is not so popular and every manufacturer use their own beeps,try these ways:
1-if you can log in to windows so try to get some software from internet to check all hardware in your laptop mother board,
2-if cant log in to windows try to see your cpu or graphic card fan works properly
3-may be its heat problem
4-may be checking battery failed
5-may be some bios data change incorrectly
6-may be dust problem(between your hardware and their slots is too dusty and get them unconnected in somewhere)
kind regards

try to check your laptop keyboard maybe their is some small materials that are accidentally inserted on the keyboard, but if the unit was still beeping, you might need to ask an actual technician because maybe their is something wrong inside of your motherboard on your laptop.

Any help for beeping acer laptop when opening..thanks

g'day!

i would like to know how many and the kinds of beeps? there are what they call beep codes which indicates what kind of problem the your laptop is experiencing: here are the common ones:

0 beep = no power, loose card, short
1 short beep = normal,POST (Power On Self Test), your computer is ok
2 short beeps = POST error, review screen for error code.
continuous beeps = no power, loose card, short
repeating short beeps = no power, loose card, short
1 long, 1 short beeps = motherboard issue
1 long, 2 short beeps = video issue
1 long, 3 short beeps = video display circuitry
three long beeps = keyboard/keyboard card error
one beep, blank, incorrect display = video display circuitry

aside from the 1 short beeps, you need to take your laptop to a technician to have it looked at.

cheers mate!

My computer beeps continuously every time i have it plugged in

Try this suggestion. Turn off your laptop, remove the cables and battery on the pc. Press and hold the power button for 8 secs. Then reinsert the cables and battery on the laptop and then turn on the pc. If it still continues to beep with no interruption, it is a problem on the motherboard. I suggest to call Acer and have your computer repaired immediately unless if you know how to reseat the motherboard by tearing down the laptop..

Turn on laptop and it gives the cursor and a blank screen plus a continuous beeping sound.can you tell me what's wrong? Mel

sorry to say but you have Memory or video problems

Do you know what type of bios its running ?

is it one long beep ? or just short continuous beeps ?

1 long beep is graphics card failure

constant short beeps is memory failure depending on motherbord manufacture

It can be fixed by you if its short constant beeping if its the long beep tho it isnt quite as eazy as you have to remove half of the laptop to get to the graphics card

if you msg back with the laptop model number i can look into this further for you
