If I restart my laptop, on the BIOS (i guess?),it will ask me to choose OS, which there's only 1 option (Windows 7).After that, the laptop will beep contionuously, short continuous beep to be exact.Nothing weird happens, except the beeps.And if I boot my laptop normally, it won't beep.From what I've searched, I assumed that it's RAM's problemBut, it will only beep if I restart the laptop.

My computer boots up fine. All programs work fine. While I'm not using it (at least it hasn't happened while I'm using it) I hear it beep once and when I go to check the computer the screen wont show any picture, it's like the monitor is on but the PC is off.PC light is still on, hard drive still spinning and the fans are still on.I have to reset the PC and I get the "Windows was not properly shut down" message upon reboot.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm running on a Windows 7 32 bit system, self built. Before I go into explain all of the details, here are my computer specs..My computer has been crashing a lot recently. It never use to happen, it just started within the past month or so. It's not a BSOD, there's no error, no warning.. Just black. When I start up, it's like nothing ever happened. But it's really annoying, whenever I begin to render a video, it crashes almost every time. It also stopped a few times while I was trying to play games and record, but I have recorded in the past. My computer use to be at it's prime but I don't know what changed. I could really use some advice to fix this. Any suggestions would help, I'm really wanting to render up all the footage I have.I do a lot of video game recording on my PC, I use the program bandicam. Also, my PC doesn't seem to be suffering from overheating, as the hard drive stays cool when it crashes.I keep about 50gb free space open on my computer to avoid extra errors.
View 10 Replies View RelatedMy Dell Inspirion laptop consistently makes a series of loud beeping sounds (5 beeps, 4 cycles) when starting up and sometimes continues at an almost inaudible level while in use. The beeps don't appear to be coming from the speakers. The machine is fairly new. I've tried to research this via Google couldn't find an explanation for the beep codes or a way to make it stop. I've run complete BIOS scans, checked for Malware, etc and the beeps continue.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHave a custom made desktop running 7 32bits on an Intel DG43NB board 4GB and a Q0650 processor.I recently acquired this machine for nothing and changed the thermals and did a good clean up and it has been running fine as my tester until last night when I booted it went to get a coffee came back to find a blank screen and the CPU fan running full tilt. Rebooted and the machine starts up then stops > three beeps > machine starts up again and runs full tilt again. There is no video - have tried the DVI and the AVG output out of the card and the mobo connections so I cannot get into BIOS to see if there is a problem there. Being three beeps I thought memory so change it for same - another brand - no differences.Took the CPU cooler off and powered on an the CPU started to get warm but not so much as one could not keep your finger on it. Reinstalled the CPU with AS and replaced the original RAM - no change.Has the mobo crashed for some reason or is there another thing I could check? Perhaps the PSU volts as my mate suggested?

View 2 Replies View RelatedRecently my computer (HP Pavilion Slimline s7700e PC, running Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit) has been starting with two short beeps; lower in tone than previously... the first beep a little lower in tone than the second. The tone repeats itself one more time.
A couple of weeks ago the computer was making beeps that signaled a memory error, so we removed and replaced the memory modules and the computer booted up again, but with the new tones. It's been running fine since.
This morning I attempted to turn the computer on and nothing happened. I went and booted up my laptop to check my email, and while I was doing so the desktop computer suddenly came alive, with the same two lower-toned beeps has been the norm lately.
Everytime I start the computer in the normal way I get a bsod about 1-2 seconds after the desktop appears (after I log in) and the system crashes. When I then start the computer in the safe mode it does not instantly give me another bsod, but even in the safe mode I have gotten a bsod. I actually downloaded the exe file from the posting guide and while running that for the first time it actually crashed in safe mode again.
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.Its the original OS.It is not an OEM version I think.. I did not order this computer, it was done for me. I'm pretty sure its retail, but at the moment I can not ask this to the person who ordered the computer for me.The computer is tomorrow 1 week old. (yes I managed to crash it in a week)The OS was installed 7-8 days ago, I'm not sure of that but its more then 7 days and less then 14 days for sure. Can ask if its important, but again not at this moment?When trying to do the system health report as stated in the guide (perfmon /report), it gives me a viewer stating that the system cannot find the path.
I up graded my lifebook to Windows 7 and have been blown away, so much so that I decided I would kill two birds with one stone with my old Toshiba.
It is an M40 Satellite with a 56GB HD, 1,66mhz processor and 1GB Ram,
I managed to clear enough space to install windows 7 (I have been unable too as it was configure to run on a server I no longer have)
The installation went well, or at least it looked as though it did, since the install and the last reboot in the installation proccess it has been in a continuous boot cycle, it comes back with a 'windows error' recovery.
I have tried starting it in every mode available and I still have nothing. I have tried a reinstall with both XP and Windows 7 and setting the Bios to boot from the DVD Rom.
I have eve gone as far as to get DBAN Nukem to clear the HD and still it will not recognise anything from the DVD Rom.
Have anyaone had a similar experience and can anyone shed any light? I am getting close to tossing it in the trash!.
i am getting lately often chkdsk launching on boot and also when i use it to check the situation on the reported partitions (at least two physical drives so far) it reports errors almost on every run even if sometimes they are like 10 minutes after the previous "scan and fix errors" .... Surface / sectors tests and WD diagnostics tool scan (all drives are WD) are coming up clean ...What's the deal here? Doesn't look like the drives need to be replaced right? one especially is like two weeks old
View 1 Replies View Relatedi use my PC every day and it has been rock stable for years. however lately i have an issue while browsing: the computer freezes randomly when i'm online. It freezes completely -even the mouse- for a few seconds. Then it beeps once from the speakers and unfreeze at the same time. No BSOD or anything else.
Seems like a hardware problem, but i am not sure. It should beep from the desktop inside if it was the RAM. Also, i tried a lot of stress-tests to ensure 24/7 stability It passed memtest for >12hrs, HD tune, IBT, and even prime95 for 24hrs, to fail when i opened 5-6 chrome tabs!

I have my USB plugged in, it's bootable, and it has Windows 8 installed on it. When I restart my PC, my BIOS has USB set to first boot. It just keeps beeping and beeping until I remove the drive and reboot.

STOP: c0000135 The program can't start because %hs is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem I saw several posts about this but a few of the answers scared me by saying something to the effect of "this will only work with this user, don't try it with your computer" Just to reiterate i can't even get into safe mode and so have no clue how i'm going to follow your procedures. i also misplaced all discs that my laptop came with edit.

When doing wipe and reloads of windows on customers computers one of the most time consuming things are doing all the windows updates. Is there a way to run windows updates non stop until it is finished with all the updates?
View 4 Replies View RelatedIt's been a long time since I've been on this website, think it was over some Windows live junk, but chea. So I'm not really sure what is causing the issue, I was lead to believe my old SSD was giving out on me along with perhaps a mishap with an update to newer drivers of ATI 5xxx HD graphic cards. But alas after trying to do what i could, i eventually gave up noticing i was running low on SSD space from my 60GB and reinstalled onto a 120GB after getting fed up with the BSOD's on that. So, i moved onto the next, got it all up and running, but it seems something is wrong with it as well and i can't exactly pinpoint it and i've forgotten how to read memory dumps correctly so here I am again at this great community to fix this thing again( As for issues i've run into, seems like playing League of Legends will result in a BSOD here and there while in game, sometimes just browsing on firefox 13 here and there results in my computer starting to freeze up and going black with a rare glimpse of my desktop or things on it before going black again with the mouse unresponsive, etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI should note I have been here before and posted about BSODs I was having. Unfortunately, at the time something came up and I never got around to coming back. By now, however, the problem has gotten worse. Before, it only crashed when I was playing graphic-heavy games. Now it crashes at completely random times as well, including when the computer is supposed to be idle.
The three errors I most commonly see are something among the lines of:
A clock interval was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval
System_Service_Exception
Page fault in nonpage area (win32k.sys)
A little background info:
My version of windows 7 is 64 bit and came pre-installed on the PC, but it was a custom-built model, so I got the disc along with it. I purchased the PC about 6 months ago.
I ran Memtest without any issues.
I ran Driver Verifier for a hell of a long time before my computer finally crashed again in the past. The Dump file would have been created around 28-02. Problem is, I've tried running the verifier again since and my computer won't start when it's on now.
I need help regarding my PC. I've been getting continuous long beeping sounds lately. It seems to happen everytime I press multiple keys in my keyboard at the same time, which of course is unavoidable when you're playing games. Now everytime it happens, my keyboard wouldn't work properly, or sometimes it wouldn't work at all. Unplugging the keyboard doesn't stop the beeping, but it goes back to normal everytime the beeping stops. And I also noticed that my speaker produces low rumbling sounds everytime it happens.
View 9 Replies View RelatedAll of a sudden, my sis's laptop got into a loop of continously detecting a Power Saving USB. The "sound" of detecting something being plugged into the laptop keeps ringing.
I checked under Devices and Printers and there's a Power Saving USB icon which keeps flashing on and off.
Basically, every time i plug a USB device into my pc, be it mouse, keyboard, HDD or memory stick, the computer makes the normal 'dun dun' sound, but it then continues to make a 'dudududun' noise, occasionally continuous every 10 seconds or so.Is there a problem with the mobo, USB port, drivers or a combination of all 3. Should this be an issue i should wory about or not?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running Windows 7 Ultimate on a Dell Inspiron 1545. I have had this laptop approximately 3.5 years and have never had a problem until we returned from vacation a few weeks ago. I shut down my perfectly working computer and came back to beeping and auto-scroll. I have run virus scanners, registry cleaners, driver scanners, and pc cleaners and have yet to fix this problem. There is no pattern to the beeping, It will beep anywhere from 2-5 times at the Dell logo screen and then continually for approximately 100+ beeps at the Windows start screen before booting normally. My screen auto scrolls in all browsers as well as my email. I use Chrome and Thunderbird
View 14 Replies View RelatedI am having a major problem with my laptop (Dell inspiron 1520). The laptop starts up, whe the dell logo disappears I get some very quick beeps (there must be about 8 beeps in total). I then get a boot manager screen which shows windows 7 at the top, and windows memory diagnostic in the tools section at the bottom. When I press enter it goes to the password screen and then after entering the password it seems to boot up as normal. I can probably get 2 - 3 minutes use out of my laptop before everything freezes. From this point I cannot do anything and have to tur the computer off by the switch.This is all it does in a constant loop.I have tried everything I can think of but still the same issue.
A couple of weeks ago my daughter spilt a little water on the keyboard. I mopped it up but next time I booted it up again the beeping noises started on start up. I removed the memory stick from under the keybpard and noticed there was signs of water damage. I removed the memory stick and the beeps on start up continued every time I booted the laptop up. But everything worked. Last Friday I was browsing the internet and that is when everything frozeI have tried to restore to an earlier date but it won't let me complete the restore. I have run the various disk repairs that are offered when pressing F8 at the dell logo screen but to no avail (it doesn't seem to find any issues). I really just want to get my files/photos off and then try and reinstall windows but as explained my computer won't stay on long enough for me to be able to do anythingThe computer will stay on in safe mode, however, it will not load in safe mode with networking. Could it be something to do with wifi? Reason I say this is I have been reading various threads and this has been suggested as a possible issue for one person's similar problem.
i posted earlier today on another thread and how convenient i have another problem, i have a sony vaio L series touch screen that all of a sudden beeps twice on different occasions, when i have my projector to it (projector is not on all the time) i may be watching netflix online and then beep beep everything minimizes. doesnt happen all the time when it beeps but its just annoying.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHere's the visual procedure my PC goes through after pressing the power button:
- POST screen
- Checking-for-bootable-drives screen
- Windows logo screen
- White text reading 'autochk not found - skipping autocheck' on an otherwise blank, black screen
- VERY brief flash of what looks like the same blue as a BSOD with very few words right at the top
- Automatic restart
- Back to the POST screen, etc, etc, etc...
I can still happily boot into the Windows 7 CD and GParted (they're the only bootable discs I have).If you will, please take the time to read my final post (the other posts may be useful aswell) on this thread, as it contains useful information on what caused the cycle (and what I have already tried) and has some screenshots (this thread is more of a continuation of the aformentioned one).
My computer will randomly reset itself and reboot from DOS and back to windows again. These intervals would range from 5 mins from startup to 3 hours or more so they are completely random. This has been happening for 1 year now. Recently the intervals have been getting shorter and shorter to the point where my computer will reset upon 2-5 min of start up after hitting windows guaranteed. I get no error messages or indications that it is about to happen. Normally I'd jump on the overheating bandwagon but the strange thing is, my computer does not reset ever if I am playing a graphics intensive Video Game (battlefield 3 to name one).
It only resets if I'm not really doing anything intensive such as word processing or browsing the web or watching a movie. All these simple tasks will cause my computer to reset after a random time period. Anything where my CPU/GPU churns into motion prevents these resets. This I cannot explain. A problem which also happens (and I feel might be related to cause this) is that if I ever shutdown my computer, it will not boot (windows cannot load). And I have to system restore to get my computer to run again. So I have never hit the shutdown button in a long time.
My laptop (Hp Pavilion dvx4 1 1/2 years old) suddenly won't load Windows 7. It turns on, fan and DVD drive run but the mute and Internet icons on the keyboard remain red and there are two flashing lights on the keyboard (one beside the caps lock key and the other is above the scroll key). That's all it does. No beeps, sounds or cursor. I had noticed a problem with my sound on a couple web sites prior to this but no error messages ever displayed indicating any problems. I bought this laptop at Best Buys and they installed a recovery disc but other then that I don't have the original Windows 7 disc in order to try to boot from CD-rom.
