What does a double beep at startup

When I try to start the system I get a quick double beep and a message on the screen says "this bios is exclusively for Acer only" Copyright 202-2011 Acer Inc., but I can't enter BIOS using Delete or F10. What should I try to get into the BIOS or get the system started?
There is no disc in the DVD player and any connected USB disk. That means a double beep? I tried to use P2 mouse and keyboard and USB mouse then KB but still 2 beeps. Most computers have 1 beep at startup upward.

Well, I gave up trying to solve the MB. Instead, I just bought a new MB of Ebay, it costs $72 but was worth it. I installed the MB easily and it starts right up normally with just 1 quick beep, BIOS opens and everything works except that I had to order a new Acer E-recovery disk to reinstall Windows 7 but it's worth the $19 to have the original software from Acer for this particular PC. I always tell people to keep the system disks because you always in the future need, but most of the people who bring in it PC always loses, lol. Well, for those of you who responded to thank you for the advice.

  • Light flashing orange and double beep at startup - Tecra M1

    Hi guys,.

    I have a Tecra M1, which starts with a double beep, which continues for almost a count of 28 or 30. At the same time between the power lights and the battery light flashes to the rhythm of 6 seconds on and 6 seconds off. Nothing else happens.

    Where can I get information about such error codes only displayed by these symptoms?

    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hello

    Unfortunately there is no public record of these codes. What happens when you try to start your Tecra without battery and connected to the power supply current only

    What I know for sure, is that when the microcontroller detects certain defects in the power supply flashing code will be sent. You can not do anything alone. Contact the partner Service of your country and you ask what is the best solution.

  • Inspiron 3650 does emit any beeps at startup upward. Does?

    Seems to work well, less than a week old. I was expecting a beep at startup upward, but I hear nothing (unless it is very quiet) I should wait for a beep code. Unable to find anything in this regard in the manual. I have a S2316H monitor with built-in speakers attached via the HDMI.

    Any thoughts appreciated please. Thank you.

    With more recent versions of the UEFI BIOS, there is no beep at the STATION, unless there is a problem. Now, the POST beep means generally: card system: the BIOS ROM failure.

    A while back, Dell has a brand-new model giving the 'normal' beep at the STATION, but confused users with the motherboard beep fault code beep.

    This led to many mothers unnecessarily replaced under warranty. Dell has subsequently removed the 'normal' beep to the STATION in a revision of the BIOS and saved the lives of many mothers!

  • "u3ajwry.exe" does not work on startup. What does that mean?

    I get the message 'u3ajwry.exe' does not work. What does that mean?

    There is no entry listed in the start menu to the top

    Can't see the full command and nothing happens when I double click on the edge of the column rt hand.

    Errm. Is there is no entry in the msconfig Startup tab then there is no complete command to try and see!

    If this only happens at startup, it may be in via a mechanism not covered by msconfig. "Autoruns" should be. You can download Autoruns here

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-GB/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    Once again, to see the full command (equivalent column is called 'Image path' by Autoruns), you may need to widen the column by dragging the right edge of its title, the mouse pointer will change when you can drag to expand

  • 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.

    Hello

    To be honest, it's very strange question. What is some external device connected to your laptop?
    Have you tried to update the BIOS to the latest version?

    Sorry, but I think that in this case, there is not a lot, you can do it. Perhaps the BIOS update, clean install of the OS. All that s.
    Maybe you should contact the closest service and ask what it can be.

    Hello!

    Beep codes mean that there is a faulty hardware component.
    It's not easy to tell what is the reason for this, but in your case I would try to exchange the RAM.

    If it doesn't work you should contact an ASP and ask for help. Technicians can check your laptop and exchanging all the necessary parts.

  • Equium A200 - continuous beep on startup

    A colleague has spilled water on an A200 Equium and therefore it emits a continuous beep on startup. In fact, you get one beep, immediately followed another. However, if you press F1 it starts OK and all is well. I ran Diagnostics and found nothing wrong.
    The only problem is that one or two of the keys work fine if you lightly touch them.

    Someone has ideas about resetting the sound signal, or what I could do? Thank you.

    Andy

    Hey,.

    I think that it s is not easy to say why this is happening but maybe the water has damaged the keyboard and there so always will be in a hurry I don t he know exactly.

    I think that it is not so useful for you if we discuss it here without test and we don t have made real for your laptop should be checked by a technician of the laptop. Guys can make a detailed diagnosis and order spare parts.

    On the Toshiba site, you can find a list of good luck of suppliers registered!

  • Equium A100-306 beeps at startup

    I have an A100-306 which, at startup, beeps for about 30 seconds, then starts up fine and then works perfectly, if I look at the laptop all the ram is recognized and the CPU seems very well, there is no display problem, the only thing that doesn't work is the CD drive doesn t recognize disks but the drive shows on the laptop , but if I remove the CD drive still beeps on startup anyway.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Hello

    The beep code during POST (power on self-test) means that an error has been detected on the motherboard.
    But it of really difficult to say what could be the problem here, you said RAM is recognized correctly hmm try to remove a RAM module and start Notepad using RAM only one in each slot

    All devices are connected to the laptop? If so, unplug everything (all devices) and try again.

  • What does "Press F12 for BBS POPUP" when I turn on my Equium?

    What does "Press F12 for BBS POPUP" when I turn on my Equium?

    Any idea? Thank you!

    Hello

    I assume you read messages provided by POST (Power On Self Test)
    Here you can see different messages.

    As far as I know by pressing F12 at the beginning of the startup procedure will allow the boot menu. You can choose between different and devices boot boot options;

    So Don t worry, there s nothing unusual.
    I think that it should be possible to disable in the BIOS;
    Check the boot settings Configuration option / Quiet Boot-> disabled or something like that.
    Don't remember exactly how the option is called.

  • Satellite A100 beep at startup

    My Satellite A100 still beeps at startup (or when he wakes up after hibernation) as if a key is pressed down, and it will not stop until I press one ' ~ ' key (just below "Esc"). In addition, it begins this character by typing in the field log-in on the start screen.

    Any ideas why this might happen?

    HI Maria,

    It seems to me that if the key is either stuck or is defective. It is possible that the keys are shorted or the rubber under the top key shared so that contacts of does not return to the open"" position.

    I suggest that you only contact authorized Service partner who can check the keyboard.

    Kind regards
