1 long Beep Code nothing on screen

I have 1 long beep code on my Blackbird 002. Nothing shows on screen and the keyboard does not light up. It is a repeating 5 second beep with a 3 second pause.  Have tried pulling and replacing memory, but no change.  Any advice is appreciated.  Monitor is working.  Motherboard shows "C1" on digital display, if that means anything.

Hello CNH100,
I understand you are experiencing one long continious beep on your HP Blackbird 002 computer. The Continious beeping without pause is an indication of a serious system related issue such as your CPU overheating. I would suggest you do a Google search for an HP document titled :HP Desktop PCs - Reducing Heat Inside the PC to Prevent Overheating, which will assist you in reducing the heat inside your computer.
Thank you for bringing this issue to the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Fail to boot (short-short-short-long beep code) after M92p BIOS Update

    Hi, 
    I recently updated my BIOS to the latest version using the System Update tool from Lenovo. For a while everything seemed to be working alright, as the BIOS was dowloaded and the computer rebooted. After rebooting the first time i was presented with the BIOS utility, and noticed that the update was progressing. 
    After 20 or so seconds the computer rebooted again. This is where my problems began. The computer immediately started beeping this short-short-short-long melody from the speakers. I thought this was normal, so I left the computer on for quite a while. 
    However, the beeping never stopped. Now the beeping resumed the instant i plug the power back in. I have yet been able to actually getting any sort of information on-screen telling me what's wrong. 
    I've tried following the "Recovering from a POST/BIOS update failure" on page 267 of the Hardware Maintenance Manual, but no luck with that so far. No matter where I place the jumper, the beeping code is the same short-short-short-long melody (yeah, it sounds like a disney tune or something).
    Any bright ideas? The machine type is a M92p 2992-B3G
    I'd hate to have to send it in for repairs, and Lenovo's Norwegian support line doesn't open until Monday, and there seems to be no way to call their 800-number in the states from here
    Oh, and would this be covered by my warranty if repairs / motherboard replacement is the only way out?
    UPDATE #1:
    I found this in the manual;
    3 short beeps and then 1 long beep DRAM memory
    error
    Perform the following actions in order.
    1. Make sure the memory module(s) are properly seated
    in the connector(s).
    2. Replace the memory module(s).
    3. Replace the system board.
    This is pretty much Lenovo's way of saying "You're screwed", isn't it?
    UPDATE #2: 
    I've now tried pretty much everything;
    The solution as proposed on page 267 in the Hardware Maintenance Manual
    Unplugging all cables and harddrives before booting
    Removing my PCIe video card and PCI Wireless NIC before booting
    Removing all memory modules, and trying 1 and 1 module
    Moved a memory module from another machine that I know is working
    No luck so far. 
    Ideas would be welcome at this point

    I'm glad to hear it's just a simple memory error, however the original problem in this post is a bit more than just a memory problem.
    This became a problem after a BIOS update, so somewhere along the way one of Lenovo's developer screwed up badly, and it's been bugging me ever since. There's absolutely no way for me to use any PCI-e card with my M92p. 
    I've tried 6 different cards, 3-4 different memory module combinaties, with our without harddrives plugged in, and every thinkable combination of these.
    No luck. Therefore, I simply conclude that Lenovo are dicks, and we all know what dicks enjoy doing; **bleep**ing people over.
    I've given up on the issue, and I'll never buy a Lenovo again after this.

  • KT3 reboot - 3 long beeps

    Hi folks,
    My new KT3 Ultra board with XP 1800+ works great with Windows XP, however....
    When I shutdown the machine it automatically reboots and gives 3 long beeps with nothing on screen. The 3 long beeps repeat until I turn off the machine at the back of the power supply. Any ideas what the problem is??? Can't find anything in the manual about beep codes.
    My system is:
    Athlon XP 1800+
    KT3 Ultra
    300W PSU
    1 x 6gb HDD
    1 x 40gb HDD
    1 x DVD-ROM
    1 x soundblaster Live 1024
    GeForce 2MX 200 graphics
    Power Options are set to do nothing fancy in XP.
    Do you think the the PSU the culprit??? I've checked and rechecked the front panel cables and they are okay. The system works absoultely perfectly otherwise.
    Many thanks in advance,
     Kenji

    i have seen cases of a psu doing this
    give us the details on it

  • 1 long beep

    I am in the process of building a system I am planning on using as a PVR. When i power up the system i get one long beep and nothing else. All the fans spin and I can hear some HDD activity but the screen is blank. I tried switching monitors and i didnt get anythig different. I also tried a different stick of Ram and that had no effect as well. As a matter of fact with no ram i get the same long beep. My system details are listed in my signature. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    My list isn't the nVidia approved list tho...so that doesn't mean anything...
    I'm not trying to be mean here but different modules/batches of memory can actually be different even if they have the same number on the sticker...he could have say Infineon chips on his module and you could have Hynix chips...see my point? I haven't looked but your memory could appear on the list...it still wouldn't mean much if the memory module(s) bad tho...
    It's like that with RAM unfortunately and is something we builders have to deal with...
    Ultimately tho these K7N2 boards are a little too picky about memory for my taste which is why I don't run one myself...mine is still in it's box on my bench behind me as it gave me a hard time early on...it's not a Delta version it's the original ILSR...I'm about to build it into a new machine for my girlfriend...yea I know...I have a death wish tho...heheheh
    I'm really at a loss as to where to lead you now because we've tried everything short of changing out the memory for something else off of the approved list...
    My only other recommendation now is to take it to a qualified repair shop and let them have a go at it...
    Good Luck

  • 1 long beep at start-up

     I just built my pc with MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum MB and AMD 64 3000, Kingston DDR 400 1GB and Coolmax CX-450B 450W power supply.When I use the power button in front I get 1 long beep and nothing happens but if I hit the front button to turn on and then use the power button in back, off then back on again I get 1 short beep and everything is fine. Thanks for your help!

    DanB,
    I am going to move your post to the nForce A64 forum.
    It would help if you listed all your specs including the RAM and Power Supply you are using.
    Take Care,

  • Lenovo H330 Beep Code: 1 long 3 short and blank screen

    I have an issue with startup, every now and again my startup initiates what sounds like 2 long beeps followed by 3 short ones - 'beep-beep' + 'beep+beep+beep' - but from what I've seen, throughout online discussion, it is only 1 long beep followed by 3 short ones. After this tune is played my screen remains blank, and on another attempt of start up the PC runs fine. Any ideas?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Since the computer's behavior changed after re-seating the memory I would double check the memory slots.  Remove the memory and shine a flashlight into the slot to see that there is no debris in the slot and that the contacts look fairly shiny.  Also look at your memory module contacts.  You can lightly rub these contacts with a pencil eraser to insure they are clean.  Just be sure there is no eraser residue left on them before re-inserting them into the computer and avoid touching the contacts with your fingers. 
    If the above doesn't offer any help then try booting the computer with just one memory module installed.  I assume you have two in there.  Then see how it boots.  If it boots Ok then swap the module for the other one.  If both of them boot Ok by themselves then move the memory module over to the other slot and try booting up the computer.

  • Long short short beep code then no boot when trying to reboot???

    I recently ran the recovery CD to get it back to factory condition and the same problems persisted (that I'll describe below) which indicates to me that there's some hardware issue. I've had the same issues before and after recovery was run.
    When I start it, it often starts just fine as long as it hasn't been on for at least an hour.  It seems to have memory management issues.  It hangs up, gets bogged down easily, hangs, crashes, etc.  It also seems to run hot.  There are quite a few programs that I was able to run when it was working well that it no longer tollerates. 
    If I reboot after it's been running for a while It makes three beeps (Long short short).  The screen goes black, the hard drive spins a little, but that's it.  I have to turn it off for about an hour or two before it will actually start up at that point.  Keep in mind, it doesn't start out at 100% and deteriorate.  It starts out at about 40% of what it used to do and deteriorates from there.  In needs to be rebooted about once a day. 
    Sometimes if it's hibernating, it will make the same beep code when I wake it up (Long short short) and most of the time it won't wake up from there. 
    So, can anyone tell me what that beep code refers to?
    Has anyone else experienced similar problems?
    Does anyone know which part is bad and if it's worth trying to fix it? 
    Thanks!

    I am having the same problem....i do believe its a memory problem..??

  • P67A-GD55 boot stops at POST 99 w/ 1-long+2short beep code.

    Well subject line tells most of the story:
    P67A-GD55 boot stops at POST 99 in lower right of display and with 1-long+2short beep code.
    I've found a note somewhere on these forums that 99 code means Super IO initialization,   though I'm not sure if this is the checkpoint before or after that process.
    I've found generic information that suggests 1long+2short beep code indicates a video card failure.   
    I'm surprised that the manual for the MB doesn't list these codes, and that they weren't listed in the troubleshooting FAQ on the MSI site.   So I still wonder if it may mean something else.
    I've disconnected all the SATA connections,  and removed all pci cards except for the video card.   Guess I'll try disconnecting the front-panel usb connectors too in a moment, but I'm running out of ideas.
    With a EVGA GT520 video card,   I get these symptoms regardless of which pcie slot I put the card in.
    With a Galaxy 8400GS  the beep code is the same but no output is ever visible on the display.  It seems possible that I just need an adapter to use the other connector on this card to see the output though.
    With a EVGA 7800GT   the symptoms are the same as with the EVGA GT520
    If I try removing the memory sticks I get 3-long beeps followed by system shutting itself down.

    Run of the mil keyboard.    (has a logo with a circle containing a crescent containing a D).   Suppose I could switch to a usb keyboard around here somewhere.  
    Disconnected the logitec usb mouse that I had connected to the back panel with no change in symptoms.
    Toughpower-650 power supply (had been in use on a system that was running an athlon x64 and the GT7800GT graphics card.  
    2 sticks PNY DDR3 PC3-10666 4G  ("compatible with 1333MHz")   1 stick in each blue slot.
    No idea how to tell you the UFEI/BIOS version.    The manual says its "CLiCK BiOS"   but since I've never seen anything but 98,99 and _  displayed by the BIOS  I really don't know.
    Removing the case front panel USB connectors didn't change symptoms.
    Resetting the bios by the button at the back panel connectors (near keyboard connector)  didn't change anything. (although it did not cause  "system will boot automatically"  as a line in the manual might suggest.  
    Tried using the JBAT connector to clear the bios as well and likewise no change in symptoms.
    There are no peripherals connected other than case power switch, power LED and HDD LED at this point.    Somehow I don't expect much change from disconnecting LED's.    Case switch seems to be behaving normally in that it causes the boot cycle to start, and if pressed while the "99" is sitting there in corner of screen it causes machine to shut down.
    No SATA devices are connected to it since they won't really be useful untill can at least get to the BIOS.   The sata cables that would go to those devices are still connected to the MB.

  • R7850 PE 2GD5/OC causes 1-long-2-short beep code on 990FXA-GD80 on some startups

    Sometimes (usually after the desktop is shut off for a while), my GD80 board will do the 1-long-2-short beep code, and then continue booting, but the monitor display isn't activated.
    Shutting down and turning it right back on however has no beep codes, and the display turns on as-expected. Turning the system off and unplugging the power for a bit, then plugging it back in also doesn't result in beep codes and the display works.
    So basically, there's some GPU-related issue that seems to only affect a cold start, but not entirely sure what. According to this, the beep code is a "Monitor or display card error".
    The GPU itself seems to work fine with a stress test under Linux.

    I RMA'd the card already, so I just hope a replacement fixes the issue.
    I'm not too certain how frequently it occurs or the exact ways to reproduce it, but the issue seems to only occur on a cold start. So if I shut my computer down, sleep for some hours, and come back to turn it on, the issue occurs (where the GPU doesn't seem to come on with POST, motherboard beeps, no display output).
    It happened since the first time I started using the hardware (I haven't used the motherboard or GPU previously; was waiting on a CPU). The GPU was a RMA already from MSI.
    Couldn't test the components in another system. However, I'm using an old Radeon HD 2400 PRO currently in this computer and it starts up fine from cold starts.
    The GPU had some other weird issues with it (hard-locked the system when the screen suspended, and wouldn't work with a UEFI VBIOS), so I'm thinking it was just faulty. On the other hand though, once the computer was on and the GPU actually running, everything else was fine (stress testing and games were fine).

    You make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get it serviced/replaced. You broke it. If you can't even force a reboot, there's nothing much more you can do.

  • GF615M-P33 - Only beep codes, no screen

    Just a built a new computer with the following specs...
    Motherboard: MSI GF615M-P33
    CPU: AMD Athlon II X3 425 Rana
    RAM: Crucial 2GB DDR3 1333, Model: RM25664BA1339 - 1 stick
    HDD: Western Digital 500 GB Caviar - WD5000AAKS
    PSU: Antec 500 Watt Smartpower 2.0
    No graphics or sound cards b/c I wanted to use the onboard chips until I could afford them.
    I plugged everything up and made sure all connections were seated before powering on the system for the 1st time.
    When I powered it up there was 2 beeps and no screen, monitor insisted it wasn't getting a signal.
    Powered down and double checked the connections, everything was connected nice & tight.
    I fired it up again, this time with the case open and heard:
    1 set of 3 low volume but short fast chirps
    pause
    1 set of 3 low volume but short fast chirps
    pause
    louder single longer beep
    pause
    another single longer beep
    I never see anything on the screen except lots flickering
    I powered the computer down and booted back up with the RAM stick removed and heard 3 single beeps with a pause in between each.
    Powered back down and removed CMOS battery for 30 sec, powered back up, no screen and same results as the 2nd time I fired it up.
    Anybody have any clues what I should try next? Or am I facing bad RAM or motherboard? Or do I just need to purchase a 2nd RAM stick?

    I took the motherboard, CPU, and ram assembly back to the shop where I purchased these items. All 3 tested ok on a bench test.

    Motherboard Grounding to case causing No Post
    Test the motherboard outside of the case to verify that the motherboard is not shorting to the case and causing a problem
         •    With only the CPU and heat sink, memory, and video card (or onboard video) connected to the motherboard, place the motherboard on a non-conductive surface and retest the motherboard
         •    Check the case mounting standoffs to verify that they are lining up correctly with the mounting holes on the motherboard.
    This case is from a Compaq Presario SR1210NX - The standoffs in this case are made to it. The manufacturer of the case took a sheet metal plate and pressed it to form the standoffs then it was drilled and tapped. This plate is riveted to the case but does not touch the outer wall. I wanted to reuse this case because it is fairly nice and is easy to work on.
    I tried the motherboard inside the case again, but this time left the screws a little loose so can shift the motherboard a tiny dab at the bottom. Left the case laying on its side, still no go.
    Cleared CMOS by moving the little jumper according to the instructions and tried again on a non-conductive surface, same thing.
    I looked at the label on the power supply, manufactured in 2004, so its 6 years old and this would have been the 4th computer it was installed in.

    Doesn't sound wrong, but check it is seated correctly, in the slot closest to the processor.
    The instructions and motherboard labeling show slot #1 (DIMM 1) to be the one furthest from the processor. Is this a misprint?
    I did try it again with the RAM in the other slot, same results.
    Is it possible that I'm looking at a dead power supply instead? Which doesn't make much sense because both the CPU fan and case fan spin up indicating that they are receiving power. Also the power switch lights up but the harddrive light never comes on. The harddrive is ok because I tested in my external harddrive enclosure and hooked it up to the computer I'm using right now via USB.

  • Dv5 1002nr blank screen n beep code of series of 3 beeps

    Hi...I have this dv5 1002nr laptop..upon boot it gives a blank screen and a series of 3 beeps three times..the beep codes I found say its the memory..I tried that to no avail..what would the next step to try..any ideas?

    Hey there, kahlic
    I see you laptop is unable to boot and you're getting a beep code of 3 beeps when turning the device on.
    You were right in your assessment of this sequence being indicative of a memory problem. However, you say you've attempted some sort of troubleshooting to no avail. What steps did you take to try to solve the issue with the memory?
    Did you remove all DIMM modules from the motherboard and replace them one at a time, attempting a boot on each single installation?
    If you have not, try this and see how this affects your boot success.
    While you're removing the dimm cards, conduct a visual examination of the cards and the seating to make sure there are no cracks, build-up(black substance on the contact surface), or dust. The contacts should be a dull golden color devoid of any dark marks or irregularities.
    If reseating your dimms do not solve the issue, you may be required to purchase new memory for your system.
    Are you aware of your device's warranty status?

    As above but after the 1 long beep and two short beeps it gives off 2 deeper tone beeps! Is it the onboard graphics card thats at fault? if so I'll need to get the m'board replaced, have tried different ddr memory and no difference, processor is an Athlon 2400+ XP

    Its a PC I've built for a friend, no bios or hardware update had been performed all he did was come in one night and turned it on, and it did that, it has 512Mb DDR 2700, Athlon 2400+ XP and uses everything onboard eg sound and graphics, no it doesn't have a d bracket unfortunatly! Have tried disconnecting all the drives and even swapping the memory and it still gives the same code.
    how long has your friend had the system? did he do anything to it before it started doing this?
    you say you swapped the memory, does the system have two sticks, if so try just one on its own. if you only have one stick in it, then try some memory out of another machine. do you have an AGP card you could try? maybe some nasty dust is settled inside AGP slot, try blowing out with air duster

Maybe you are looking for
