HP Pavilion Power 580-137c won’t boot.

Power led does not light. Immediate 3 long 2 short beeps. Reseated RAM and graphics card. No change.

Hello
what do you mean by "Reseated RAM"
This code can have different meanings, depending on the computer / motherboard model, release date!
it can actually be memory
How many memory modules do you have?

I unclipped them, took them out, put them back, clipped them back in. No change.

If you have two memory modules, once both have been removed, do you still have the same series of frequency beeps?
If so, you try a single module on both slots with you, if not better, the same with the other module!
Try to be precise in your answers, we will save time, thank you.

Ah, yes. Thanks for the feedback. 2 sticks of RAM. Tested each RAM stick, one at a time in each slot. Beeping was the same each time.

And without the memory modules do you have the same ??
If so, it is rather rare to have two faulty modules but you never know!

Yes, with no modules the error is the same.

I agree both modules failing at the same time seems fishy.

Is it possible to boot with one faulty and one good memory module (8GB each)? Could 1 have failed a weeks or months ago and the other one just now fail?

Prométhée · ‎02-26-2021

I am not sure I understood it, but if only one module is HS the system is in error

so I don't think so, it would depend maybe so completely hs or not, I never met this type of case it seems to me!

Two at the same time, it is possible, but quite rare, so I would not tell you to buy a module for nothing
It could be a problem with the motherboard.
can you take the tower to a professional, he could test a module and see if it works
