Hi, I have a acer travelmate 4070 laptop when you turn it on it starts beeping loud,
I started clicking enter so it can boot quick lol as soon laptop booted, opened window
went to normal screen operation it stopped beeping.
I gave it a shut down, turned it on again and that loud beeping started again.
Sounds like a smoke detector lol the beep wont stop, what can it be ?
how many beeps? tell us the sequence of beeps heard. need more specs of your machine as well
Those beeps indicate a problem with the computer. If you take notice of the number and sequnce and if they are long or short beeps, we can determine what the computer is trying to tell you. The information can be found on line or even better in your computer manual.
When turning on its a continues beep ............................................................................ as you see on these dots, it will stop when I press enter various times like lets say 8 to 10 times so window completely boot or I hold doen enter for like 10 seconds window boots up ans beep stops. The beep wont stop unless I press enter various times.
Window 7 ultimate
Intel pentium processor 1.70 Ghz
2.00 Gb Ram
32 bit OS
When window opens and beeps stop laptop runs normally, works normally, no problem.
Depending on the brand of computer, it is most likely memory problems.

Just want to say, the laptop is booting, works perfectly when fully booted, the beep is when turning on, at logo screen, thats when I start spamming enter, then beep stops, window opens and I can use it normally.

OK Test the memory, it is always good to be sure its up to par.
If that does not work, Im pretty sure that if you remove the CMOS battery and let the computer rest for a while it should be ok.
If all else fails, and you know how its done, update BIOS.
Do I have to save somehow the Bios setting when removing and replacing the cmos battery on my laptop ?
How do I save the Bios settings ?
If it were my computer, I would save the settings. I have found out that a back up is always the way to go.
I think this may help
