It means something is wrong! Get out the manual and look for beep codes. The beeps will be in some form of code and you can tell where the problems are by reading the number of beeps and whether they are short or long.

you have to check your hardware the ram or vga card might not be connected properly so try removing them and inserting them again because when the mother bord peeps it's usually hardware
if you're not a pro then you'd better see a technesion

Its means you have very messed up computer.
to fix this problem find your recorery/installation disks and reinstall your operating system. oh and by the way say good by to any personal files you might have on there.

ok if it is as exactly as u discribed (1beep-3beep-1beep) then its a memory refresh problem meaning you have bad memory on your system. Best of luck
