Hi all,
I have an issue with a HP Prodesk 400 G3. Everytime i power on the device, i get 2 major beeps(red led) followed by 2 minor beeps(white led) and no display.
What i found on the web: https://support.hp.com/gb-en/document/bph07107
Steps i've tryied:
-Reset ram and clean ram slot
-Test device with a working ram
-Disconnect all attached devices
-Reset cmos battery
-Attempt sure start recovery
After 4 hours searching for a solution, i couldn't find any solution for my issue.
Can anyone here please help me fix my issue.

I am quoting a coleague from here who posted a solution to a similar problem.Here it goes -
You get a LONG (MAJOR) signal category, RED LED &
then a SHORT (MINOR) signal category, WHITE LED.
Major – the category of the error; Minor – specific error in that category
The AUDIBLE repeats 5 times, and the VISUAL until power is removed.

BIOS
2.2
The main area (DXE) of BIOS has become corrupted and there is no recovery binary image available.
Also happens when updating BIOS.
Typically no steps needed.
1. Allow the system to complete its updates and changes.
2. If updates are stalling, attempt Sure Start Recovery.
