Random 4 beeps? Is this a mobo issue?

[CSGOaddict]

To summarize quickly, random 4 fast beeps coming occasionally when using PC. Happens often when playing CS and just happened when watching twitch. MIGHT *POSSIBLY* be due to the new amd driver update thingy? I've noticed this is what it starting happening after. Amd build btw, ryzen 3 1200 and rx 570.

 

Plssss help! Thanks in advance.

need to know what mobo you have
but just looking up at generic 4 short beeps says memory but might be different depending on board make

system timer failure 

looking further i get this explanation
 the ASRock mobo uses an AMI BIOS, therefore those four short beeps indicates a System Timer Failure, which means "The system clock/timer IC has failed or there is a memory error in the first bank of memory". Testing each stick of RAM may help, or testing each RAM slot - it could be a dodgy stick, or a sign that the mobo is having its last days.

try reseating the ram. or using 1 stick at a time and try the other 2 slots before anything else

AMD's new video drivers cause 4 quick beeps every time you run an application that is using Radeon Anti-Lag.  Pretty sure if the beeps are coming from your sound device and not the onboard mobo speaker then it isn't a mobo code.

I love you

I didn't know that lmfao. Yes they are coming from my headphones, I never really knew how these beep codes worked since I've done only one build and I didn't have any issues. Good to know. Thanks a lot!

So did turning that setting off fix the beeps?  I've been trying for a few days to figure out how to get the beeps to stop while keeping Anti-Lag on.  It's a little annoying

(facepalm) you didnt say the beeps were in your headphones lol. but wow THAT would be annoying. why the alert? what were they thinking

Yeah I've been trying to figure out why they couldn't have just added it to the hotkey notification they force me to see every time I launch a 3D app.  I'm sure you can turn both off somehow I'm just determined to find it in this new control panel without using google
