System Boot Fail;ure Beeping
System running Vista Home Premium Upgrade since release and all updates
automaticaly downloaded. On Startup, a long beep followed by 2 short beeps occurs, by switching off power supply and restarting system will boot mostly on first restart but sometimes it takes up to 4. When system on brown off button or "restart there are no problems only when powered shut down. I have checked boot priority and everything is in correct order.I have reinstalled Windows Vista upgrade hoping this would clear problem but it is still there. I can cope with just turning sytem off but on some occassions I wish to shut down due to absence from home. Any suggestions please. -- Ashley

That is not a Software problem...it’s a hardware problem.The beeps are your
motherboard's way of telling you what the specific problem is.Each BIOS has a different beep code..once you determine the maker of your Bios do a Google on Beep codes and look for the sequence guide. The hard shut down/stall on start up is usually an indication that your PSU is not supplying enough power to start up your devices.When you just reboot the devices already have partial power and all starts up normally. peter -- DISCLAIMER: If you find a posting or message from me offensive, inappropriate, or disruptive, please ignore it.
