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.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi there @huntsk,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I understand that your computer is not starting properly and there is a repeating beep pattern. I am happy to help with this.
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.
I would suggest checking out these to see if you find anything, that helps:

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.

Pulling out the wireless keyboard/mouse USB adapter and booting back up without it would have definately did the trick.
