I'll copy and paste it below. It's mainly for older computers but It maybe of help to you?....... What is a BIOS Beep Code? When you power on a computer the BIOS immediately takes control of the computer and performs the P.O.S.T (Power On Self Test). At the end of the POST the computer will play an audible 'BEEP' through either the PC's internal speaker of through speakers attached to the sound card (if you have a built-in sound chip). If the POST completed successfully without detecting any problems with then system will play a single short beep to let you know the test is complete and the computer will continue to startup and load the operating system. If during the POST the BIOS detects a problem it will normally display a visual error message on the monitor explaining what the problem is.
starting the remainder of the boot process. If the computer passes the POST, the computer may give a single beep (some computers may beep twice) as it starts and continue to boot. However, if the computer fails the POST, the computer will either not beep 3 short beeps or generate a beep code that tells the user the source of the problem. If your

What is the make and model of the PC? Also make sure you didn't bump something else lose ( processor, cables, etc ). 1 Ghost Chili OP Ross42. Jan 2, 2013 at 2:15 UTC It's probably 1 long beep a bad ram stick. But yeah without knowing the beep codes, that's just a shot in the dark. 0 Thai Pepper OP Wife of SAM Jan 2, 2013 at 2:16 UTC What I'm reading says 1 long beep is a memory error. Does the same beep when no memory is inserted too. 0 Cayenne OP RichyA Jan 2, 2013 at 2:17 UTC Vdubayas has it - what is the machine manufacturer? If it's built from bits and pieces, what is the motherboard manufacturer? If it's a dell machine, the long beep is the machine whinging about badly seated memory. Best bet would be to test both the old and new memory in another machine. If it's good in there but not in the one you're trying to sort, the memory slots may have had it. 0 Thai Pepper OP Helpful Post Gary342 Jan 2, 2013 at 2:18 UTC I have been down this road myself. Usually it is when i am added RAM and not replacing all the sticks. Try reseating the RAM and also reseating any PCI or PCI-E cards. Sometimes the cards move out of the socket just enough to cause issues. I have on occasion had to unplug every cable, card, and even the CPU chip and reconnect all those for a computer to come b
by introducing more precise citations. (October 2010) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) The first stage of a typical POST operation. (AMI BIOS) The second stage of a POST. Sometimes, it is shown 'Boot from CD'. (AMI BIOS) A power-on self-test (POST) is a process performed by firmware or software routines immediately after a computer or other digital electronic device is powered on. This article mainly deals with personal computers, but many other embedded systems such as those in major appliances, avionics, communications, or medical equipment also have self-test routines which are automatically invoked at power-on. The results of tests run by the POST may be displayed on a panel that is part of the device, output to an external device, or stored for future retrieval by a diagnostic tool. Since a self-test might detect that the system's usual human-readable display is non-functional, an indicator lamp or a speaker may be provided to show error codes as a sequence of flashes or beeps. In addition to running tests, the POST process may also set the initial state of the device from firmware. In the case of a computer, the POST routines are part of a device's pre-boot sequence and only once they complete successfully is the bootstrap loader code invoked to load an operating system.
