Computer beeps at boot 3 times and loads Windows
Just recently for the last 3 weeks, my desktop PC is beeping at boot and then boots Windows successfully. When I am on the PC, I don't see any issues at all.
The beeps are short and as follows.
beep beep beep - PAUSE (1 second) - beep beep beep - PAUSE (1 second) - beep beep beep and boots Windows.
I looked around on the internet for information on this, but so far I have not found anything similar to my beeps. I am thinking my memory card is going bad. What do you think?
