Boots but NO BEEP TONE

[musashiro]

Hi Guys,

 

So i just finished building my PC. Everything works as it should but I don't hear the satisfying beep tone on boot. I made sure to plug HD Audio on JAUD1 on my MSI H110m Pro-VH board. 

 

I checked and HD Audio is enabled on Bios. Fast boot is disabled as well. 

 

Is this normal? My OCD won't let me sleep at night if I don't hear the beep tone.

 

But seriously, I just bought the board today and would like to know if I should RMA it.

Modern PCs don't have the incredibly annoying beep tone on boot. Last time I heard that I was still running Windows 98SE.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think if there were a beep it would come from a speaker inside the case?

On another note, a lack of this beep is NOT a reason to RMA the board

oh ok, it feels like I am missing a lot from not hearing the beep tone. I mean, ever since 3rd Grade, I use it as a sign of good boot (when I first formatted a pc using XP). But thank you for answering my silly question.

I upgraded from an old 2nd gen build and I used the same case. I am thinking the beep tone is the first thing I'll hear after building.

there is usually a speaker included with the mobo or case. make sure it's plugged in.
if it wasn't included, then ye won't get a beep

Again, even if you should be hearing it, assuming nothing else is effected then you have nothing to worry about

With Asus at least it's built into the motherboard. It's used for troubleshooting boot issues. 

 

Also, it's not annoying, it's a single beep to let you know that post has completed with no errors.
