5 beeps during POST

[Timmy-P]

I noticed during a hard restart of my computer I hear five beeps before seeing POST, only to encounter a boot loop and the same 5 beeps; shutting down the computer entirely and booting cold allows a proper boot, but last night I let my computer idle while I was laying down, I heard the 5 beeps repeatedly, so it encountered the same boot loop while it was in Sleep mode.

I tried Googling it, only thing I found was it was a process failure and to reseat RAM, anything else I should be aware of?

Thanks.
