mobo beep code

[bassfisher6522]

I just realized that I get this one short beep right after I push the power button to turn on my machine. Then it boots up and runs just fine. After looking back through my A+ Managing and Trouble shooting PC book and found out that it's normal to here one or two short beeps that informs me that all is well. I don't remember hearing any beeps on my retail PC's on boot up. Is it me or is something wrong.

Look in the back of your motherboard's brochure for details or Upgrading and Repairing PC's 19th Edition. It should be OK, but my mobo had no speaker to hook up so no beeps.

Theres nothing in my mobo manual on beep codes. What I found online coincides with what my repair manual is telling me. I did place a ticket with Asus just for verification. I started to worry there for a minute.

Sloppy Asus. My Gigabyte manual has a section.

The Asus board I had in my last build did that as well. It just lets you know that everything is fine and that it's entering POST.

By no means definitive but a good reference,

PC Hell: BIOS Error Beep Codes

and usually one beep as stated already indicates all is well.
