POST beep codes

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   So earlier this year I built a small form factor PC using a B650I LIGHTNING Mini-ITC motherboard, with an AM 8700G CPU in a MITXPC MX500-USB3 Compact Mini-ITX Case.  Noctua NH-L9a-AM5 Low-Profile CPU Cooler does fit !  Works great !!

Running Widows 11.

Occasionally, (1 in 5) I will get a 5 beep code during POST and it will take longer to boot.

Should I be concerned ?

	5 quick beeps? If so, don't worry about it, the system just didn't detect the display during POST. This happens sometimes when the display takes a bit longer to initialize for any reason. The signal chain is autosense so as soon as it's detected things proceed as normal anyway. Hope this is what you were looking for.
