When I start my computer it makes a very loud beeping sound, how should I fix this?

Hi,

The beeping sounds are error codes which describe an issue with your machine. One

constant beep can mean keyboard (loose cord or bad), loose card, power, a short or

other issue depending on System/BIOS maker. Other beep patterns have other meanings

depending on the maker of the BIOS.

Bootup and select SETUP/SETTINGS (BIOS/CMOS) - usually F2 as you start up - look

to see BIOS creator then refer here :

There can be others so check with System Maker or MotherBoard Maker for customsystems.

Hope this helps.
