Pc beeping

[alex268]

Yesterday I turned on my pc after an hour of being off and it started beeping 3 long beeps 2 short ones I think it’s the ram because I took it out when it was beeping and it stopped. Does it mean it’s the ram??

if you have a single 8gb module,

buy an 8 gb module, and why not if it works a second

try upgrading to 16gb

@alex268 -- can you match your pattern of "beep codes" to: HP and Compaq Desktop PCs - BIOS Beep Codes | HP® Customer Support  ???

Also, if your computer has an add-in video-card, be sure that it is fully & correctly "seated" into its socket on the motherboard.

Within this discussion forum, see: No screen on startup; 3 long beeps 2 short beeps - HP Support Community - 6979452
