    Is your computer not booting? From what you are saying it maybe be a POST Beep Code that you are hearing. Unfortunately you did not supply enough information about your computer.

    The best thing to do is to try and find the manual for your machines exact model number and see if there are any "Beep Code" entries listed. Based on what the manual says you will be able to decipher what is wrong with your computer.

    Some things to try now are:

    Remove the RAM from your computer and see if the code changes, if it does not you might have faulty memory, or something else is wrong but the memory fault takes precendence. If it does then something else may be wrong with your machine. Without some detailed knowledge of your machine model number there is not much that I can help you with.

    It does sound like you are talking about Bios Bleep code.

    We need to know the bios you are using and whether long or short bleeps.

    If your Comp is less than a year old you should still be under warranty so get it done under that.

    You have been told to remove the RAM but that will not prove anything because Bios is a program and needs some RAM to run to be able to give a bleep code.

    If you have more than one RAM card then try using one at a time to prove which one is faulty if RAM is your problem.
