1. Continuous short beeps

2. Continuous 3 short beeps and a pause


Almost every computer company publishes their beep code list according to their user guides and thus, the beeps may vary. For beep codes that belong to AMI BIOS, 1 beep means a DRAM refresh failure. 1 long continuous, 3 short beeps may mean a conventional or extended memory failure.
