BIOS Beep Codes

When a computer is first turned on, or rebooted, its BIOS performs a power-on self test (POST) to test the system’s hardware, checking to make sure that all of the system’s hardware components are working properly. Under normal circumstances, the POST will display an error message; however, if the BIOS detects an error before it can access the video card, or if there is a problem with the video card, it will produce a series of beeps, and the pattern of the beeps indicates what kind of problem the BIOS has detected.
Because there are many brands of BIOS, there are no standard beep codes for every BIOS.

Windows 2000 Tips & Tricks

Tips

Speed up the Boot Menu (#1)

Tired of waiting thirty seconds to boot Windows 2000 if you don’t select from the boot menu? Speed up the booting process by only showing the available operating systems for just a couple of seconds.

Right-click “My Computer” on the desktop and choose “Properties”. On the “System Properties” multi-tabbed dialog box that follows, click “Advanced”. Click the “Startup and Recovery…” button. Then, on the “Startup and Recovery” dialog box that follows, next to “Display list of operating systems for … seconds”, select the number of seconds that you want the computer to wait before continuing with the default OS. When you’re done, press “OK” to close the dialog box.

Desktop Disappearing? (#2)

Although Windows 2000 is more stable than previous versions of NT, in some situations, strange things can happen. If, for example, Explorer crashes, most of your desktop, including the “Start” button, disappears. To bring back Explorer without rebooting your machine, press CONTROL-ALT-DELETE. When the “Windows Security” dialog box appears, click the “Task Manager” button. If the “Windows Task Manager’ dialog box appears as it should, select the “File” menu and then “New Task (Run)”. When the “Create New Task” dialog box appears, just type in “Explorer” and press the “OK” button. Windows Explorer should then reappear, complete with the “Start” button.
