Thanks. Was facing same thing when I forgot to connect Display Port cable after cleaning. Good to know that this is a feature and not any issue.]]> Fri, 01 Jul 2022 17:38:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100447&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100447 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100335&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100335 Author: auanasgheps

I can confirm that a "dummy HDMI plug" bought from Amazon works fine, emulates a display and eliminates the 5 beeps.
Hurray!

I keep the PC speaker connected because the OS I run on my NAS interacts with the PC speaker to tell the user if a specific activity is completed or not.]]> Sat, 18 Jun 2022 06:27:59 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100335&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100335 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100262&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100262 Author: Xaltar

I typically just disconnect the PC speaker and only connect it when troubleshooting ]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2022 17:38:04 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100262&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100262 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100261&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100261 Author: auanasgheps

OK, looks like there is an (external) solution: buy an HDMI dummy plug that simulates a monitor on the other end.
I will go for this one since they're cheap and should solve the problem. ]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2022 17:10:26 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100261&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100261 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100259&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100259 Author: auanasgheps

Thanks for your reply!

This code was not produced when using CSM/Legacy mode, is there a way to disable it in UEFI mode?
I turn on my system every day, and is very noisy :(]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2022 17:05:28 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100259&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100259 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100251&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100251 Author: Xaltar

That is normal, the actual beep code indicates no display output is active.
If you have a display cable connected and are not getting a display
and it beeps 5 times then there is a GPU error.

Hi,

My PC with a H370M-ITX/ac makes 5 short beeps when is turned on, but boots perfectly fine.
According to what I can find online, these beeps would lead to a missing GPU. I have a Core i3-8300, which has an integrated GPU.

The system does not beep when a screen is connected (I use HDMI). However, when I unplug the cable and boot the system, it beeps, but as said works fine.

I use this system as a NAS, so I don't need the screen. At the same time, I need the beeper to know if things go wrong.

It didn't make these 5 beeps until I reinstalled the OS (Linux) and disabled CSM options.

Does UEFI mode create this issue? Can you help me?]]> Thu, 09 Jun 2022 02:13:20 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=24613&PID=100249&title=h370mitx-ac-5-beeps-when-booting-but-works#100249
