Black screen and 3 long beeps 2 short beeps
07-31-2020 10:09 PM

Hey guys I’m having trouble with my desktop. I try to power it on but when it turns on it does 3 long beeps and 2 short beeps and the screen is blank. From what I’ve read online I believe it’s supposed to be a RAM problem. Thanks for any suggestions!

Hello
unfortunately, we have several documents, but it is difficult to know which model it corresponds to.
But yes in general this code is a memory problem
From what I observed, this computer would be equipped with a single module, so difficult to test ..
You can just try to change the slot if it is!
If not, remove the module, and try to restart, logically, you must have the same code, this could confirm a problem with the memory module!

Attention
A bios update is not without risk!
Be aware that if you are offered to do so, it will be at your own risk, the computer may become unusable, think about it
