Identify problems with your computer beep

A few things before we do the service on the Personal Computer / PC should  we understand the damage or irregularities that occur on the PC by detecting the sound issued.  among them is :
1 Times, long BEEP sound
DRAM refresh failure. Have problems accessing the system memory
2 Times
Parity string of failures. In the data transmitted in the computer, usually added parity bit which is used for detecting and correcting errors. This work was carried out a series of parity on the computer. This is probably caused by a problem with memory or the motherboard.

3 Times
Base 64K memory failure. Base 64K memory is the first 64 KB of memory on the RAM. This failure could be due to the memory slots are grouped into modules which have a defective chip.
4 Times
The failure of the system timer. There might be an error on one or more timers that are used to control functions on the motherboard.
5 Times
Processor failure. Can be caused by excessive heat, or because the processor is not installed properly into the socket.
6 Times
Failure of the keyboard controller / gate A20. The keyboard controller is a chip on the motherboard that mengedalikan your keyboard.
7 Times
Processor error.
8 Times
Error read / write memory display.
9 Times
Damage to the BIOS.
10 Times
CMOS error.
11 Times
Damage to the cache memory.

AWARD BIOS
Award more like a message through the monitor. But there are times when video card is not working and the message is displayed using the beep code. Therefore, the BIOS beep code on this type less. BIOS beep codes on Morse is also like a sign, combining long and short beeps.

1 long beep
Problem with memory. Chances are that the memory is not installed properly, or faulty memory chips as well. Could be related to damage to the motherboard.

1 long beep, 2 short beeps
Video system errors. BIOS can not access the video system to write error messages to the screen. There are several possibilities, including video cards are installed on the existing system on-board video card, or use an IRQ that is already in use for the video card is causing the conflict. Alternatively, the video card is not installed properly.

1 long beep, 3 short beeps
Same as above, there is an error in the video. BIOS can not access the video system to display an error message to the screen. Connect voice dial beep Can be caused by a memory or video card. There are some general guidelines that can be used for each BIOS. These general guidelines can only be used for errors detected before and during Power On Self Test (POST). We are familiar with the procedure performed when starting the computer is turned on, and this will be helpful in diagnosing the problem. The first time when the computer is turned on, the power supply will send power to all components. When switched on when there is no any reaction, then check the internal power supply that is located on your computer. To test this, we can use LED (Light Emiting Diode) and then plug in the POWER LED connector. If the flame, means the power supply is still good. Then, if all components have got enough power, the processor will work to find instructions. He will find these instructions on the ROM BIOS. For processors, the probability is that excessive heat caused by overclocking or position is not perfect. For the BIOS, it is unlikely that the location of the BIOS chip is not perfect. Check the BIOS can be done on another computer. Some viruses are able to damage the BIOS program. If the POST will continue but not completed, most likely the problem is on the motherboard. For this one, there are several steps that must be done:
If PC will not boot at all, make sure the minimal component is mounted, ie processors, memory filled with precise, video card, and a drive, and make sure all components are installed correctly. Components are soldered onto there should be no are missing.
Remove the components that are not mandatory, such as expansion cards, external peripherals such as printers, scanners, etc., due to improper installation can cause I / O error. Then turn on the system, and try to plug the cards one by one to test it.
Double-check the jumper settings on the motherboard. Make sure the processor type, bus speed, multiplier, and voltage jumpers. And also make sure the BIOS jumper is in proper position.
Change the BIOS settings to the default settings to ensure the problem does not lie in the BIOS settings are redundant. Example by lowering the read / write access time of memory and hard disk. Check all cable connections on the motherboard are correct. Check whether there are components that are experiencing excessive heat. If there is, change the BIOS settings and lower settings.

Handling
For cases 1, 2, and 3 times beep, try to correct the first memory position. If it still happens, there is the possibility of faulty memory. Replace with new memory. For 4, 5, 7 and 10 times the beep, the motherboard is damaged and must be repaired or replaced. To 6 times beep, try refining your keyboard controller chip position. If there are any errors, replace the keyboard chip. 8 kai beep indicates a memory error on the video adapter. Replace the video card. 9 times beep indicates the BIOS chip failure. Usually not due to a position less than perfect. 11 times beep, replace the memory cache.
