  • I got this computer from a car boot sale here in the UK. When I tested this computer I found it showing no display and beeping twice. I really don't know much about computers but upon reflection now, I think it was just that the display was showing through the graphics card.

    I recently bought a MB with CPU and most parts without a case. I installed in a IBM Thinkcentre case and the same Dbl beep. Repeat the same Procedure and Bingo! It works!!!
    Your search is appreciated my friend!!

    Hey man, I found one of these outside and took it in. It seems to work fine despite the 2 beeps, but once in a while it'll freeze up and the display would go weird, but the boot up session is fine and the OS comes up quite quickly after I turn it off and back on again. Any idea what the problem could be?

    • @HamedAdefuwa
      @HamedAdefuwa  3 года назад

      lol you found one? nice! It seems its a graphics card issue? Does yours have a graphics card in? If not, perhaps try installing one?

    Haven't watched the full vid yet so sorry if I'm commenting too soon. I turned mine on today and got that exact 2 beeps but it starts up and I'm at my desktop just fine. This is the first time I've noticed the 2 beeps what does it indicate?

    • @HamedAdefuwa
      @HamedAdefuwa  3 года назад

      The fact that it started up is strange, usually it's a CMOS error or graphics card issue. So clearing the battery or removing GPU usually does the trick. I'd leave it as is if you're in the desktop.

      @@HamedAdefuwa I was thinking, I just got a new 4k tv and have it hooked up with a vga to hdmi adapter. The first day I had hooked it up I switched to a resolution that wasn't supported but was able to get it back to 1080p which is where I'm gonna leave it. Could the switch to the unsupported resolution trigger the beeps?
      Edit: my pc only has integrated graphics (Intel HD 4600) so I can't take out my gpu

      @raevod6361 i cant remember much lol. But I know the adapter I had was wrong. It was VGA to HDMI so it only works one way or something. The beeping on the motherboard I can remember if I fixed it or if I just got a different motherboard.

  • @MrVidification

    I get two or three short beeps but it's through the speakers whilst running the os (usually within brave browser or on the w10 desktop, I think it's a gfx driver issue)

    • @gamingstuffbyroni2456
      @gamingstuffbyroni2456 Год назад

      you went to visit device manager, if its a driver issue?

    • @MrVidification
      @MrVidification Год назад

      ​@@gamingstuffbyroni2456 There were no driver issues showing, or anything in need of an update. Having said that, it's now a ten year old laptop using win 10 as an OS (it came with 8.0). I think the beeping was directly from the motherboard. At the time I assumed a failing component or outdated graphics drivers in combo with an OS it wasn't designed for, as some of the beeping came with a half second freeze on screen. I haven't had any random beeping or freezing for months, so I can only assume an OS update fixed it. I will be replacing the laptop soon. thanks

      I'd guess so yh, some people have said adding a graphics card solved the problem, others said removing it solved theirs. I'd say get the cheapest compatible one you can.
