The beep codes are BIOS specific and so you will need to pay attention to the post as your computer boots and note what BIOS it has. Then you can go to a website such as http://www.bioscentral.com/beepcodes/phoenixbeep.htm and look up the codes for your specific installation. On the right hand side you can select different types of BIOS.

SOURCE: Hello there! A while

I have spent over an hour on the Asus website looking for your motherboard and it is not listed in anyway. The Beeps at start up are really motherboard specific and only point you in a general area so you can pretty much ignore those for now. If you are sure you have the keyboard and you are using the on board Video try using a separate Video card. In most cases the board will allow you to install a different Video card but be careful that you are not installing a video card in the AGP slot and another card in teh top expansion slot. Asus has a bad habit of having those 2 slots share resources. When you put cards in both slots it causes a conflict and in most cases the Video will not work when that happens. If I could find a user manual on the motherboard it would be a lot of help but I am having no luck at all with finding information on your motherboard as you have it listed.

SOURCE: ASUS P4V800D-X AMI BIOS AMERICAN MEGATRENDS BEEP CODES

Hello here is some beep codes:

Beep CodeDescriptions 1 short DRAM refresh failure 2 short Parity circuit failure 3 short Base 64K RAM failure 4 short System timer failure 5 short Process failure 6 short Keyboard controller Gate A20 error 7 short Virtual mode exception error 8 short Display memory Read/Write test failure 9 short ROM BIOS checksum failure 10 short CMOS shutdown Read/Write error 11 short Cache Memory error 1 long, 3 short Conventional/Extended memory failure 1 long, 8 short Display/Retrace test failed
My guess is you have a ram/memory module failure.
Try to renew the ram module.

The asus homepage is here:

http://support.asus.com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=p4v800d-x&p=1&os=

Here you can download a manual.
Please unzip the file when downloaded.

Your mainboard is using following type of ram:

Dual Channel Memory Architecture
4 x 184-pin DIMM Sockets support max. 4GB
PC3200/PC2700/PC2100 non-ECC DDR SDRAM memory.

These module does not exist bigger than 1GB.

I have a fujitsu lifebook S series and it randomly gives out short beeps. I have kept a log for the last 2 hours or so: - 12.47,13.00 , 13.01,13.04, 13.28, 13,28, 13.29,13.34, 13.41, 13.41, 14.21,...
Are the beeps always the same pattern?
A motherboard BIOS can alert the user to potential problems by sending out an audio type of 'morse code'.
Each Bios has its own set of beep-codes, with unique meanings.
I have an old free app which may still be valid, called BIOS BEEP CODES.
This lookup database tells you what the beeps mean.
The BIOS is controlled by a chip / IC on the motherboard.
The codes are arranged in short and long pulses, eg
Award: 1 long + 3 short = whatever...
Also check when booting, usually bottom right, for Bios Ver.
Common Bios-chip manufacturers include AMI, AWARD, PHOENIX.....

Computer POST and beep codes
The computer power on self test (POST) will test your computer to make sure it can boot properly(test hardware and sys requirements), once it does the computer will then finish the boot process. Normally, if your computer passes the POST test it will beep once or possibly twice. If the computer fails the POST then it will either not beep at all or generate a beep code.

The beep code you receive can indicate what may be wrong with your computer. The beep codes vary depending on your motherboard BIOS manufacturer(AMI, Award, Phoenix). You can find what BIOS you are using by paying attention to the BIOS screen when your computer boots up. It should tell you what brand BIOS.

You can usually find the meaning of your beep code by doing a simple google search i.e "phoenix beep codes". Below, I have provided links to sites which go over beep codes and their respective meaning.

AMI BIOS Beep Codes
Award BIOS Beep Codes
Phoenix BIOS Beep Codes

Keyboard monitor not working after bios update locked
Assuming that:

1. You have a HP Pavilion a1720n PC Desktop
2. You are using Windows VISTA as your OS
3. You were having SATA identification issues that you felt needed correction

Then, and only then, should you have considered a BIOS upgrade. I have seen way too many of these go bad, and 80% of them were unnecessary. As soon as something glitches in a PC, people jump to the BIOS bandwagon, when in reality, it is the least likely item to be at fault. I can see only one of three things that went wrong here.

1. The BIOS Software was correct, but failed to install properly despite the fact that you did it exactly according to the instructions.

2. The BIOS Software was correct, but failed to install properly becuase you didn't do it exactly according to the instructions.

3. The BIOS was not correct, because although you may have an HP a1720n PC, your model might not be using the P5LP-LE motherboard that the BIOS was written for.

Many manufacturers will use multiple-styles of motherboards on a single product line as boards become obsolete and are replaced by attrition. The BIOS is written to support the particular chipset for a particular motherboard. So flashing the BIOS with an upgrade for an different motherboard will most often result in what we refer to a "bricking" the motherboard. All this means that the motherboard is a useful to you as a brick.Since you have lost the most basic communications to the board (Keyboard/mouse), there is not much hope of repair at the user level.

Beeps continously and has orange color
The beeps you hear are BIOS Beep Codes. Sort of a 'Morse Code', if you will. So many short beeps, or so may long beeps, or a combination of short, and long beeps, making up a code.

This is the computers way of telling you something is wrong, and an area to start looking in to find the problem.

BIOS = Basic Input/Output System. A small, (Usually 64MB in size) program that is on the BIOS chip. (Chip is a slang term for Integrated Circuit. The BIOS 'chip' is soldered to your motherboard.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BIOS )

How to read that BIOS Beep Code? This becomes a little more difficult, as there are two main BIOS program makers, and every series of computers may have a different version of that program. (Award and AMI. Award and Phoenix merged)

HOWEVER, listen carefully to those beeps. Listen for a continuous series of beeps, then a pause, then the series of beeps again.
Compare what you hear to this chart,

http://www.pchell.com/hardware/beepcodes.shtml

A common problem is that ram memory stick/s may have become loose, or the ram stick is defective. (Ram 'stick' is slang for ram module)
Try re-seating your ram stick, or sticks if you have more than one.

The orange light means your harddrive isn't active. That lamp, (light), that you see is the Harddrive Activity Lamp. Red means it's working, (Active), Orange means it isn't.
If you have a ram memory problem, (Ram stick/s), your computer isn't going to work, which means the harddrive won't be working.

BIOS ROM Checksum Error - no POST, no beeps, no display -HELP!
If your computer turns on and no display then you have faulty memory cards, replace them with new ones and make sure you use the right kind. Bios settings are usually set to default and factory settings, you should not have to update them. Usually if you hear no beeps when you turn on the computer, then your memory cards are faulty. I hope this helps.

Acer Aspire 1640Z BIOS problem
Dear all,

I also posted this one under "Notebook Bios Problems" which might notbe the correct place. Anyway here it is for you to see and maybe youcan learn from my experience.

-->


Have done a VISTA upgrade with Acers upgrade DVD.
It recommended to upgrade the BIOS - after doing this notebook is dead.
(1 long and 2 short beeps).
If I want to flash a new BIOS with Crisis method which BIOS shouldI use i.e. how do I know if I need the AT or UMA version - how toverify this on the notebook (my version is 1642 ZWLMI)?

I would very much appreciate some help on this - thank you

LATEST NEW - it WORKS AGAIN:
I was a little bit worried when I started icon_sad.gif but later I was all smiles icon_biggrin.gif icon_biggrin.gif

So a BIG thanks to everyone who posted possible solutions here in this forum:

1: I bought a NEC model UF0002 USB floppy Disk Drive Unit.
2: Downloaded the zip file from the ACER homepage with the BIOS
(chose the one that should be the correct version for VISTA:
It contains 2 WHP files: ZL9A3A24.WPH and ZL9I3A24.WPH as I
learned from NoClaim's post I chose the ZL9I3A24.WPH.
3: Downloaded the zip files with the Crisis recovery zip-file (See d0gi's
post: http://www.rechner.org/b1800.html ).
4: un-zipped the files
5: copies the file ZL9I3A24.WPH into the crisis directory - deleted the
BIOS.WHP that was allready there. And renamed ZL9I3A24.WPH
to BIOS.WHP.
6: ran the WINCRIS.EXE program (did an unbootable format of the floppy)
7: I now had a recovery floppy.
8: all steps above obviously done on my desktop PC.
9: removed battery from my ACER 1640Z laptop
10: unplugged powercable.
11: inserted the USB floppy in one of the USB ports on the laptop
12: pressed the <fn> and <esc> keys
13: plugged the powercord
14: Turned on the laptop
15: waited a bit - lights came on on the laptop (no beeps)
16: waited a little longer and the light on the floppy came on
17: waited still a bit longer until I could hear the floppy was working
and then I let go of the keys <fn> and <esc>
18: after a while there was no activity on the floppy any more and
shortly after the laptop shot down.
19: the laptop started up again on its own and IT WORKED
20: THE LAPTOP IS BACK AND THANKS TO ALL OF YOU I SAVED A LOT
OF MONEY icon_lol.gif
