You need to do a search for a "bios beep code" and the make of motherboard.

This might help.

One beep is very serious, could be the processor.

Did you unseat the processor without a static strap, also check that you did not dislodge anycables chips on the motherboard.

You will need to check the links in the previous message.

THe motherboard gives the beep code if it fails the power on self test (POST) a memory failure would be something like 5 short beeps and a long beep, varies by motherboard.

Do you know who made your motherboard.

AMI Bios (American Megatrends)

1 Beep: DRAM refresh failure

Explanation: The system is having a problem accessing the system memory to refresh it. Refreshing is done on all system memory to keep its contents active.

Diagnosis: This code usually means a problem either with the system memory or with the motherboard itself.

Recommendation:

Troubleshoot the motherboard.
Treat as an apparent memory failure.


Award Bios


1 Long Beep: Memory problem

Explanation: There is a failure of some sort related to the system memory.

Diagnosis: The first bank of memory probably has a failure of some sort; this is usually just a physical problem such as an incorrectly inserted module, but may also mean a bad memory chip in a module. It is possible that there is a failure related to the motherboard or a system device as well.

Recommendation:

Treat as an apparent memory failure.
Troubleshoot the motherboard.


Phoenix Bios.

Does not seem to be in the format of a phoenix error code.

Could have damaged either the memory or motherboard with static.

What you could do is remove everything from the motherboard and see what error code you get and put all the memory and expansion cards in one by one till you get the same beep code.
