Immediately when I power one the unit it beeps. 3 long 3 short and repeats. I read other posts and saw that could be a seating issue. Removed ram and video card and reseated. Swap dimm slots. Tonight is the first time I've powered the unit on. Before I reseated it would eventually boot, now it won't.

Hi
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.
3.3 | The embedded controller has timed out waiting for BIOS to return from graphics initialization.
Indicates potential graphics chip failure. | For integrated configuration (I/C): 1 For I/C, confirm if graphics is on processor or Main-Board. 2 For I/C where graphics is on the CPU, swap known good processor. 3 For I/C, replace Main-Board and/or processor as appropriate. If the add-in card requires additional power, verify the cord is plugged in. For non-integrated configuration (N-I/C😞 1 Reseat card if able. 2 Test known good card if able. 3 Replace affected component. |
