BIOS Beeps

[Cistalia]

I have a HP8570C. when I boot it up, it beeps at me constantly and will not go any further. It does this right after I get the "hewlitt Packard" blue screen. I have tried shutting down and restarting, but that does not do it. I thought it might be a bad graphics card, but I removed it and went back to the onboard graphics card. Still does the same thing, and yes I did change the dip switches and removed the graphics card.

Have you also tried loading the default setting for the BIOS or clearing the BIOS?

How does the beep sound?


Here is a link that will tell you what the BIOS Beep codes mean. There are different codes for different BIOS manufacturers. Look under "Quick Links".
