    Power out


    Had a power out yesterday and now when I attempt to turn on the computer I get two beeps, that's all. Can't remember what those beeps mean. Do I take in for repair?

    Two beeps could mean a POST error (and an error code should appear on the screen), or it could mean a memory problem, or it could mean something else entirely. It depends on which BIOS your computer has.

    Can you get into Advanced Boot Options to run diagnostics?
