Solved!
3 Long Beeps 4 Short (higher pitched) repeated 5 times; then PC starts
05-05-2016 07:14 AM

I cannot find an answer to this particular sequence of beep codes. All in one is about five months old. After the series of 3 long 4 short beeps occurs five times, the PC boots to the desktop.
Any suggestions? The PC is under warranty, but it would be nice if there was a simple fix first.

Please post the full product number for your computer. See the following, if you need help with that information. HP Desktop PCs - How Do I Find My Model Number, Serial Number or Product Number? The model number you included in your post is coming up as a printer.

The model is: M9Z62AA (all in one).
I have already tried to find these particular beep patterns from the links you indicated. Also, after the 3 long/ 4 short series repeated 5 times, the PC boots normally to the desktop.
