Sounds like a BIOS signal, Zee. These are a series of beep signals to
diagnose certain functions and non-functions.

I think you will need to find out the manufacturer and model of your
motherboard and go looking for the manual online. (If you haven't already
got it) That will tell you what these signals refer to.

Good luck,

Ed

first of all its certainly not a windows problem ! you need to check your
motherboard manual/makers website for beep codes and diagnose from there,
could be any number of things , video card, ram, processor etc

As it is a hardware problem you should check your manual. Did you call
customer service for your computer? Why not?

If you lack experience and can't solve the problem there are other who can -
for a fee!
