Wow, Urgent help, Constant beeps and then restart

StareX
Go to solution Solved by Ophidio,

Constant beeping tends to be an issue with either memory or a video card. try just one stick of ram and the onboard graphics if you have onboard graphics. 

Wooow.. What is going on?

Let's begin from the start. There I was trying to overclock my card, and did rethink it. After rethinking it I decided to put it on stock clocks and use Guru3D Uninstaller to uninstall the drivers. (My GPU's LEDs acted up so doing that solves them) Now I picked the "Uninstall and shutdown" option and then when it finished it shutdown.

Now as I was going to my case, I pulled my card out, and looked at it for awhile just ya know for admiring it, put it back in and fired up my PC but hold on... I now hear constant beeps coming from my PC like unstop beeps and now I'm worried, wtf did I just do? Or what the hell happened?

Now yeah, I know this might be a RAM issue so the first thing I did was reseat the RAM sticks, tried only 2 but no.

Now I thought it was my GPU so I replaced it with an older one, but the problem consists even there.

I tried to Hard BIOS reset my PC (By not letting go off the power button for 10 seconds) and no luck.

The PC doesn't boot ok? It simply does the annoying beeps and restarts and starts over..

Did I just burn my motherboard? And how the fuck did I do it???? Or I don't know.. Wtf happened?

Not sure if it's the same but I've had somewhat the same issue before. Once  my motherboard would try to boot but it would be stuck at the Asus boot screen, it would beep once saying everything was fine but obviously nothing was fine. Ended up RMAing the mobo. Anyway, how many beeps are you getting before it reboots? Generally motherboards will beep a certain amount of times before rebooting to tell you what the problem is.

Take the gfx card out and try to boot using onboard vga. Beep codes vary between manufacturer I believe. But is there any pattern to them? Ex. two short beeps, long beep, pause...?

yep, motherboards can be bitchy sometimes when you decide to change something or just clean something. At least everything seems to be working okay for you now?..

Ohh.. Works now.

Lesson learned, since 2012 I had this setup with me. Today I learned that if I nag my PC and beat it up it'll spit me out like a hardens virus and insult me till I fall down to my knees.

Aka, I won't freaking OC this PC until I'm getting watercooling so fuck this.

Btw.. Is 67.9% a good ASIC score for a GTX 980 Ti ? :|.. Random question but ya know.

Issue fixed.
