One long beep on power on nothing (G3-605)

Actually, I've updated the BIOS, it seemed to work because I got the new logo of the screen and once in Windows, I reinstalled the chipset driver, who wanted a restart. So I said that now any time it powers on it just beeps for a few seconds then nothing.

Tried reinstalling the RAM and the GPU, but it did not work. Don't know how to reset the CMOS if this is, but the total lack of everything that happens on the screen (does not seem to happen) and the manual with not postal codes, means that I am at a loss what to try next.

Someone at - it ideas? I mean what I've done is to search for my SNID then install the BIOS and chipset, it gave me a little frustrated that now it doesn't work at all.

Welcome to.

just remember that if your BIOS is damaged and can not even bootstrap... you have a dead motherboard.

  • Computer won't start; 3 long beeps, the fan turns

    Hello

    I have a desktop HP equipped of Windows Vista that does not start correctly.  When I turn it on it looks like it is starting, I hear the fan, the computer will beep 3 times in a row (I would say long beeps) then stops and beeps 3 times in a row again.  Then nothing on the monitor, fan always running.  If I didn't get anything I think that the computer and the monitor's energy-saving.

    Before I turn it on the screen says no signal so I think the screen itself works.  I don't quite see the HP splash screen.  Pressing F8 during startup seems to do nothing.

    I created Vista backup discs (food?), but I don't think they are bootable.  Some back story: a few weeks ago, I tried to download Windows Live.  After installing the updates, I could never Live DL and the next day I got the blue screen of death.  I rebooted, you press F8 repeatedly and Windows started normally.  Although it worked fine for a few days I felt nervous that I did a restore of the system around October 31.  Everything seems to be ok for over a week but now I have this problem.  I thought to upgrade to Windows 7, but do not know what to do at this point.  I've never opened a tour - answers Google talk out of ram or certain types of error of keyboard Bios (3270 keyboard card).

    Help, please!  Sorry to be so long.  :-)

    Hello

    These beeps mean hardware problems so check with a real computer (not the leeks and pics store
    at a Best Buy or other department stores) or HP support.

    Sound beeps are error codes that describe a problem with your machine.

    Startup and select CONFIGURATION/SETTINGS (BIOS/CMOS) - usually F2 that you start - look to see BIOS

  • Taking a long time to power laptop

    Hi all

    My laptop (HP ENVY 17 - j005tx Notebook) when to stop only takes a few seconds, but it can take up to 5 minutes to be able to...

    At first I thought some service or program took a long time to stop, I installed Windows 8.1 SDK Performance Toolkit to try to identify a culprit. run the command "shutdown - traceFlags BASE + DIAG + LATENCY - noPrepReboot xbootmgr-trace" and the generated trace succeffully.

    I noticed that the notbook was restarted in a matter of seconds...

    Anyway, I proceeded to analyze the trace file using the wpa.exe anf program cannot find any program or service taking much time to stop!

    SO, I now understand the operating system Windows stops well even if the laptop is very long take-off power.

    Someone at - it suggestions?  I have installed NVIDIA driver 337.88 and found another thread here where they suspected this version of the driver has not been tested by HP and after they have applied it their judgment of the laptop slower than usual--is this somehting, perhaps to look at...

    I am currently downoading sp63414.exe NVIDIA driver for my laptop - should I uninstall my current driver and applies HP?

    Thank you visruth...

    What I've tried is run "msconfig" and boot into "safe mode", restarted, then stop, stop was back to normal again.

    Then revived "msconfig" disabled all Microsoft Services, judgment and yet all fed off the coast as usual (soon after).

    Then restarted and re-enabled all services using "msconfig".  Disabled the following services, choose these particular that I'm not sure why they should be executed and some do not know what they are...

    rebooted and then stop and everything stop and power off was normal...

    It seems that one of these services is at the origin of the power off to take a few minutes...

    I suspect the bluetooth services, GSService, or IconMan_R, or even the genius of Netgear...

    Funny enough I did uninstall netgear genius a few weeks ago and see for some unknown reason, that the Service is still there? Hmm...

  • xw4100: HP xw4100: five long beeps at startup

    HP xw4100 is five long beeps at startup. What it means?

    Hello:

    5 beeps = a memory problem any.

    The normal troubleshooting steps involve the removal and reinstallation of each strip of memory.

    If that does not receive the 5 beeps to get out, then remove all of the memory modules but one and test each of them in both to isolate the faulty memory module.

    If this does not work, probably the motherboard has failed.

  • 6 long beeps BIOS after video card install

    Hello, I recently bought a HP ENVY h8 - 1437c, Windows 8, I replaced the (NVIDIA GeForce GT 620) with a (Sapphire HD 7770 1 GB GDDR5). I hooked the 6-pin power and made sure the card is seated properly multipule times.  On startup, I get 6 long beeps and the power light flashes. Then a few seconds later the power light lights up blue and the PC starts fine. The map seems to work very well as well. I played games on max settings without any problem, where, as before the GeForce card couldent do that. Around the web, I read that he might have something to do with the secure boot BIOS enabled, I disabled without change, even 6 long beep and then the PC starts fine. I guess my question is, is that although it beeps? It is at the origin of internal problems? The only things that I've done so far add video card software, secure boot disabled (using the old GeForce card to get into the BIOS) and reinstall the the new vid card/6pin power wire. Thanks for the help and let me know if you need more information.

    Here is the link for my computer specs just in case.

    Hi Sarge1D,

    Go back into the bios and UEFI Legacy mode. There could be a slight mismatch between the Sapphire video card and bios of HP.

    View your results.

    As a side note: I suggested in a post earlier that HP do exactly as you have to allow video cards which have a difference of function vbios with the bios of the PC HP (beep 6 times as a warning, but leave the PC to boot).

  • Pavilion 7000 series: AFTER failure - five long beeps on startup, no video

    Hi, problem as above. I'm guessing that bios related, but other than that, no idea. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    Mark

    Hi, Mark:

    Normally 5 long beeps means there is a problem of memory.

    The only suggestion I can offer is to remove and reinstall each module of memory.

    If this does not work, remove all the memory modules and each of them in the primary memory slot one check at a time until it beeps constantly.

    When you find the memory that works with no beep, then you have isolated the bad memory module.

    If the 5 beeps continue depite these troubleshooting steps, you can pretty much figure that the motherboard has failed.

  • long beeps after installing the video card

    Hello

    I recently bought a HP 500-223w.

    I wanted to install a power supply a video card.

    Here's the problem: everything works fine without the installed video card.

    If I install the video card then at startup it gives me a series of long beeps.

    I turned it off after the long fourth beep assuming they would UST go on and on.

    The power supply is more than enough to power the video card.

    The video card should not be bad, because I just moved it from another system. (system currently does not, bad mobo)

    I was wondering what the infinite long beep on startup?

    Thanks and regards, TJames.

    Hello:

    Product for your PC specifications indicate that it comes with Windows 8.1.

    To install a video card no HP on PC shipped with Windows 8 or 8.1, you must change both settings of the BIOS before installing the card.

    Please see this document for the BIOS to change settings...

  • Aurora R4 single long beep on startup.

    Hi all

    Today, I added a 4 ports USB hub for my R4 using USB 2/3connections on the motherboard. I did it because my forehead to the USB 2.0 ports no longer works after a tech replaced my front control panel. They were connected to the USB 2 port, the MIO USB Board was on USB 3, and 1 USB was empty. Anyway, I moved the jury MIO USB cable to USB 1, plugged my hub USB USB 2 and 3 (because it requires two connections for 4 ports) and left the USB 2.0 wire front.

    Now, I get a second beep long 5 when I turn on. I get flawless at the start, all the USB ports work without any problem and according to the beep codes, the beep indicates 'Card mother Possible failure - BIOS ROM checksum'. I don't really know how the addition of a USB hub to the mobo could cause this problem. Any ideas?

    Well, I noticed the USB 1 chip power the little Gizmo (very small, flat, black) was quite corroded so I took some q-tips and isopropyl alcohol to her and cleaned. The computer is 6 months old...

    Anyone has any ideas on this issue?

    What is sure, that all cables are connected completely? From my experience, the long beep can be seen, if the cables (power cable of the Gpu, etc) are not properly connected to the components/mobo!
