Hi @Sajid0421 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! We're here to help you get back up and running.

I understand how unsettling it must be to hear a loud beeping noise from your notebook, and I appreciate the effort you’ve already put into trying to resolve it. 

Let’s walk through some clear steps together to narrow down the cause and bring back a calmer experience with your device.

 

Step 1: Identify the Source of the Beep

• Check if the beeping occurs immediately at startup (before Windows loads). If so, it may be a hardware alert from the BIOS.
• If the beeping starts only after Windows has loaded, it could be linked to software or drivers.

 

Step 2: Power Reset

• Shut down the notebook completely.
• Disconnect the power adapter and remove any external devices (USB drives, accessories).
• Press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds to discharge residual power.
• Reconnect the adapter and power on the notebook.

 

Step 3: Run Hardware Diagnostics

Your notebook has built‑in diagnostics that can help pinpoint issues.

1. Turn off the notebook.
2. Press the power button, then immediately press the Esc key repeatedly until the Startup Menu opens.
3. Press F2 to launch System Diagnostics.
4. Run the Component Tests for memory and hard drive.

Step 4: Check Windows Settings

• Ensure that all drivers are up to date using HP Support Assistant.
• Open the HP Support Assistant app from the Start menu and run updates for BIOS, chipset, and audio drivers.

Step 5: Observe Beep Patterns

• If the beeping is continuous, note whether it changes when pressing keys or connecting/disconnecting the adapter.
• If the beeping follows a pattern (like 2 short, 1 long), it may indicate a BIOS code. These codes can be interpreted through the diagnostics page above.

 

Step 6: Audio Alerts

Sometimes Windows accessibility features such as Toggle Keys or Sticky Keys can cause beeping when pressing keys.

• Go to Settings > Accessibility > Keyboard.
• Turn off options like Toggle Keys or Filter Keys if enabled.

By following these steps, we can determine whether the beeping is hardware‑related or a Windows setting. If diagnostics show no hardware fault and the sound persists, it is often linked to software alerts or accessibility features.
