Why is my computer beeping?

Wrapping up. If nothing appears to be wrong with your BIOS configuration, it is time to start diagnosing just what all that beeping means. While figuring out what the beeps mean is by no means foolproof, by carefully identifying the pattern, you may be able to pinpoint the type of problem and correct it without having to invest in a company or a new system all together.

Listen to your computer carefully, make note of the amount of beeps and the type of beeps, and then do a search on Google to find out what it means. Most web sites will be able to tell you the type of problem associated with that sequence of beeping as well as common solutions for the problem at hand.

Some can be fixed as easily as making sure the power plug fits snugly in its slot and others may require the help of a PC technician. Either way, you can determine the problem and take the appropriate action to make sure your computer is running healthy when you run into a problem. The most important thing to remember is to not panic when something goes wrong, and you and your computer will be just fine.

Hi Aerosmith, Noob or not, your computer is trying to tell you it has a problem. Typically beeps are from the motherboard / BIOS. Which is where your CPU temperature is monitored. Maybe your computer is running a bit hot, maybe a fan is not running properly. The long start-up time may be caused by many things, including hard drive errors or RAM failing. But the beeping is likely fan or temp.

Since you are 'noob' at PC's, I suggest you have a technician look at it. Short of cleaning any dust off of the fans inside, I don't recommend you try any repairs yourself, or you might just kill the poor PC, finally. So maybe just take a very careful peek inside and see if it is an obvious problem like dust, or a fan not spinning. If that doesn't seem to be the case, have a trained repairer look at it. Or you'll be back next week asking us about specs for a new PC.

PS. "Computer beep codes" are quite specific, there is no forum on which manufacturers agree on making these beeps uniform at all. One manufacturers' beep codes will be quite different from another. So – G**gling 'computer beep codes' will be about as helpful as throwing a dart at your PC while blind-folded and blaming the part you land on as being the cause of your grief. In short – don't bother!

Look up the model of your Motherboard, find the MANUAL on the manufacturers website, and READ it. This is the ONLY method for really knowing what the beeps mean. If your lucky, the model number of your motherboard will be printed on it, next to the CPU or RAM.
