AFTER the beep

Hi, I have a pre-built computer from Gateway. The model is GT5654.

And I'm getting beeps when I push the power button now. The beep is

5 times then rest then continuous beep.

What is this telling me?

When I lived that first time, the computer started properly after all

2 to 3 tests, however, it does not much more.

I think that it is CPU failure or possibly the card mother... I need to make sure what is the problem

If I can replace the part.

Thank you!

A gateway site search reveals that it is a processor error or a floppy drive error in most cases.

The next time that you are able to start, go to the BIOS and disable the floppy drive (there may be up to 3 entries for this IME).

Then see if it beeps again - if yes, then this is the processor

  • Beep codes for T500: what do the beeps mean?

    I regularly get the following beep sequence when I restart my T500:

    beep, beep, beep - beep, beep, beep beep-

    The beeps are relatively short. After the beeps, the system hangs just quietly. It does not continue the boot process, but it remains lit. I have to force a stop down and start to continue.

    Anyone can shed light on these beep codes?

    Thank you!

    Very reassuring (other people know the problem and serious no effect). I've had so many other problems with switchable graphics, I thought it was bound.

    I'll just ignore for now.

  • HP Pavilion p6210pt desktop PC: after the installation of the new module of RAM PC does not start and continues to beep.

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade the RAM on my PC. I don't know I got the correct specifications: 240 pin DDR3 PC3 - 10600 1333 MHz

    And it comes to envy, I bought, Kingston.

    The PC has 6 GB of RAM and a free slot, after I insert the new module on the free location corretly and press power, the PC does not start. It starts just a beep and the screen remains black.

    Don't know how better to explain this.

    If I take the new RAM all works normally. If I take old modules and just start by the new, the same thing happens, computer won't start not and just keeps to the beep. One of the Tweets is longer than the other, and then it repeats.

    Can anyone help please, it's just the motherboard it is too old or something?

    Thank you.

  • BIOS Post beep continuously after the replacement of keyboard

    On my laptop G60 - 243 cl I swapped to a new keyboard that had the same part number 502958-001 "HP Spare", but when I first power to the top of my laptop, it beeps on an ongoing basis until I hit the ESC key or enter one or two times, and then Windows Vista comes well and everything works dandy.

    It's annoying to have to remember to press the button ESC/Enter twice to stop the ringing to continue starting up.  The tone is so strong that it will scare anyone who it not wait.

    We know what you looking for BIOS (Phoenix BIOS version 54 a)?  From another source, I'm guessing that the continuous beep is the 'stuck key' or the keyboard firmware error.

    The new keyboard is not working, but I put the back of an old and the beep on startup until stopped.

    Does anyone know how to force the bios to accept my new keyboard and stop the beep on startup?

    If your new keyboard works very well there nothing wrong associated with firmware. It could be related to the "stuck key".

    function such as (f9, f10 etc.) keys are not used in normal windows operations so you won't see it's stuck but the BIOS detects all the and any invalid entry causes beeps.

    I'm afraid, this seems to be a problem on the new keyboard itself.

  • Roger tone "Beep" after the audio file

    I have a question; I got files of VO that have been recorded on hearing 5.5 and 6, and they have a "roger beep" (maybe the best way to describe it) between each 'holding' sound used as an indication of separate or stop a recording of this script before going on the other. It's actually a double beep beep like a walkie talkie when you release the button send/transmit. I googled the effect but only Protools seems to have a record that... Can you help make me wiser?

    The closest you can get to that is to use the dough Mix that you can set insertion and a file. Once you've done when you can F3 to repeat the action everywhere where you stopped recording or where you have placed the playback cursor.

    Alternatively, if you can live with a single beep you can generate a short tone in the Generate/effects/tones and then save it as a favorite by clicking on the icon star in the component generate. You can then assign a keyboard shortcut to this favorite to be able to insert the beep whenever the playback cursor is located.

    Thank you very much...

    Hi mate

    Seems that something was wrong during the BIOS update process.
    Usually the BIOS update should work correctly but the BIOS update is always sensitive technique and something like that can happen.

    Usually the CMOS must be cleared first and then the ROM module must be flashed again. This can be done by an ASP.

    Be in contact with an ASP in local guys help!

  • Re: Satellite Pro A200 - black screen after the BIOS screen

    Hello
    I'm new to the forum and have a big problem. So, any help is welcome and appreciated.

    My Satellite Pro A200 turns black after the BIOS screen and a black screen with a blinking cursor. Also just as the screen goes black a beep can be heard which shows windows boot.
    I can access the toshiba Setup screen but not the installation of security mode.

    Kind regards

    Hello

    You wrote that you can access the BIOS, but have you checked if the HARD drive is recognized properly? Perhaps because the computer cannot start HDD isn't recognized then you should check this.

    If the HARD drive is recognized, I would try a Toshiba Recovery disk recovery facility. It seems that Windows isn't able to start and if you reinstall the whole system should help get rid me of this. Go to the start menu and select the CD/DVD drive as a boot device.

    Check this box!

  • Tecra 8000 does not start after the BIOS update

    From one day to the other does not start my Tecra 8000 (400 MHz/256 MB BIOS 9.30 for years). After start-up, the disc starts to turn, but the screen including the backlight remains completely black, without red logo TOSHIBA BIOS is not accessible.

    I got a new mainboard on stock, so I replaced it, and it worked. Unfortunately now my WLAN card now did not work properly. I tried several settings of the BIOS with no results, so I decided to do an update of the BIOS from 7.50 to 9: 30. After the upgrade, I get the message "ROM WRITE successful, utility completed. LEADER BIOS: Tecra8000 v 9,30 ". Because what either kept silent, I pressed the power button to restart and heard a long and many short beeps (endless). I could interrupt what pressing the powerbutton for 5s.

    After turning on again I have the same problem as described in the first line :-( I can't get into the BIOS, but I can again update (with pressed F12). Once again these beeps.

    What to do with these beeps after average BIOS update? I replaced the MoBo connector LED with pension. Processor, memory, keyboard and HD has remained the same. So, before I start disassembling the machine, please notify, your help is very appreciated.

    Hello Joachim

    I'm not a technician and don t know what the beeps but I am afraid that the BIOS chip is damaged. Because of this, the unit is completely dead. Sorry, but I really don t believe you can do anything. Maybe the new motherboard again :(

  • Satellite L30 - 10Y: error checking after the 2 GB of RAM

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L30 - 10Y ^ months ago I walking the RAM 1.5 GB by adding a card of 1 GB of RAM in the 512 MB card provided it worked well.
    I also have walking my son Hi-Grade lapto with exactly the same specifications of RAM that worked well also. So I decided to grade until my L30 10Y with another card of the same specification to bring it up to 2 GB as specified by TOSHIBA.

    I booted the computer to find Hay presto after the message following the start screen appears * "_the file is possibly corrupted.
    The file header checksum does not match the calculated checksum_ "* the computer then froze and I turned it off."

    Controls, I did tried two cards into the two slots without change, 1 card in both slots (an empty) works very well. Other card in the two sons of slots (works Fine) the two card slots in my computer (works very well) all three cards and 512 MB card in the configuration of the slots and cards (works fine). The three cards 1 GB in all configerations cards and slots to the error message and other times 1 long beep and 2 short.
    Yes, the cards have been installed correctly. Impossible to change something to do with the BIOS, even though it may be accssed. Cannot run dvd player although I can select.

    I went back to 1.5 GB and reinstalled all OS the drive recovery Toshiba try all over again the same results. Running windows Vista Edition family Basic, Bios is the last download. RAM is compatible. Cheep Hi-Grade son accepts that all RAM in all Configurations without sentence windows XP operating system.

    Can anyone think of anything either, I have not tried, or I just have to go and by a Hi-grade computer?

    Hello

    I read your announcement carefully, and it seems that you have checked that everything what is possible
    So in my opinion the two ram modules are not compatible set
    It's the only plausible explanation for this problem.

    AFAIK the L30 - 10Y needs DDR2 533 MHz (PC2-4200) 200 - PIN SODIMM modules.

    Finally the short beeps are coming from the BIOS and it means that the error has been detected.

  • Satellite L500D - after the screen of the BIOS, just blinking cursor

    Help, please.
    Windows 7 has frozen so I turned off the laptop. And then turned back on and now after the toshiba screen all I get is a blinking cursor.

    No beeps. No warning message.

    Any suggestions?

    Richard

    Hey,.

    I had the same problem last week on another Toshiba laptop and the solution was to reinstall Windows Toshiba recovery disc.

    I think that the reason was a bootloader corrupt because I had also a blinking cursor and nothing else has worked.
    So I booted from the recovery disk and reinstalled Windows from this disk. After that everything worked again! :)

  • HP Pavilion dv9260nr does not start after the bios update

    After the HP Health Check, it was recommended that I have updated to the current bios.  After you have downloaded and installed, the computer would not start.  Instead, it emits a long beep and 2 short beeps and the screen is blank.  How can I recover a bios update failed?  Is there a way to return the computer to the bios Setup?

    I thought I would post here to help others as I just spent 5 hours to fix this problem. I have personally experienced this on two different computers, both are model DV9260NR. I woke up in the long and short two beep power. The first time it happened, I tried to fix the BIOS by using the recovery disk, but it didn't work. I tried this using a USB floppy like any other player. The floppy drive should get accessible, then machine would be on a second beep then stop, but it would remain under tension. The first time around I gave up and eventually return it to HP as it was under warranty. This time above the current problem computer is more under warranty so I decided to test out of old college. After trying several discs crisis different Phoenix, I finally found one that worked.

    I downloaded crisdisk.zip here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?3ccb9m0kv0m

    Followed by the latest bios from HP for the DV9260NR

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp42001-42500/sp42187.exe

    I used 7 - zip to extract the files in sp42187.exe and crisdisk.zip

    go to the folder where you extracted sp42187.exe and rename it to 30BBF2D. WPH into the BIOS. WPH

    Copy BIOS.wph to the folder where your snippet CRISDISK.zip

    I have created my disk in Vista, so don't worry about going "Real DOS".

    YOU MUST USE CRISDISK TO CREATE THE DISC!  SIMPLY COPY THE RIGHT FILES ON A FLOPPY DISK DID NOT WORK!

    Open a command prompt, I used command.com not cmd.exe

    CD to the folder CRISDISK.

    At the prompt enter: "CRISDISK. "BAT HAS:

    Finally, put in a blank disk and follow the instructions.

    Once the disk created, slap this puppy in a floppy USB drive and plug it into the computer.  I didn't need to use as or Windows + B, B FN hotkeys to trigger the BIOS recovery. The system entered in the BIOS for me recovery mode and tried to access the USB floppy.  I noticed that not all USB ports will work.  I plugged my USB stick, floppy to the next to the power supply.  If all goes well just turn on the computer with connected USB floppy drive and the disc in the drive. As before the system beeps once per second during playback of the disc.  The disk activity, arrested again, but this time that the system kept beep immediately after discontinuation of access to the drive.  These beeps point you out that the BIOS is flashed, it's just leave turn. When it was made the machine itself set off.  If yours is not, so I doubt that the BIOS recovery will succeed. I then unplugged the USB floppy drive, turned on again and to my surprise I was greeted by the HP and the BIOS logo!  I hope this helps people difficulty of their DV9260NR.  I met four dv9260nr machines and two of them does not update the BIOS using WinPhlash and the finished machine trashed, not good statistically.  I hope that others with the same model will be able to get their machinery running. I'd be curious to know if it works for others.  Post here if you are or do not succeed using this procedure. Good luck!
