| I am getting a slow long, repeating bleep when booting up. I have just replaced the power supply and all seems ok. I have connected all cables correctly, and I have also isolated each piece of hardware to try and eliminate bleep which occures either when no peripherals are connected or not. I am wondering if it is a memory issue which may have got damaged when the PSU blew. Last edited by nuteck : 20-01-2008 at 02:48 PM. |

| What motherboard do you have and how many times does it beep, the amount of beeps is an indication of where the problem is

| Interesting! The beeps are long, slow and continuous. Where do you think the short could arise. PSU is bolted back in as before, I have checked all power supply input connections etc. |

| Hi, It is an HP computer with AMD Athlon, only number I can see on the MB is AM37. The beeps are continuous, long and very slow. |

| Can I go back to the Memory. Does any one this this might be a memory issue. If I take out the memory and boot, the beeps are the same. |

| Are the bleeps all of the same duration ? .... if not go back to Carbons link above and see if you can match to one of those listed.

| Slow long bleeps all spaced the same and continuous. Yes it could be the MB, CPU or RAM. Can't think what else unless I am missing something really simple. |

| Most often the mobo will blow b4 the CPU .... chances are the CPU will still be good and possibly the RAM.
