Product: OMEN by HP Desktop PC - 870-224
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
Occasionally on boot, PC sounds out 4 long beeps then 2 short beeps.
I did change CPU heat sink and fan (with new CPU paste) 4-5 months ago when upgrading my i5 to an i7 CPU. Did thoroughly clean CPU and heat sink.
What do you think ??

hi
Processor problem
try check what is recommended here
HP Desktop PCs - Computer Does Not Start and Emits an LED or Beep Code | HP® Customer Support
The red light blinks four times, and then two, short white light blinks (4 long red, 2 short white)
This condition indicates that the processor (CPU) might be overheating.
