1030MB: Multiple Beeps After Turning On The Machine

Symptom
When turning on the machine, you will get either 3 or 4 beeps before the machine starts to load Windows.

Resolution
This is normal operation for this motherboard. Below is a description of what each beep is for.

1st, and 2nd beep: Checking Power Management Support. If these beeps are heard, Power Management is OK.

3rd beep: VGA function. If the 3rd beep is heard, the Video functions are OK.

4th beep (optional): Checking Power Management Support (again). If the 4th beep is heard, Power Management is OK. The 4th beep will only occur when a system is powered off, then back on. The 4th beep does not occur during a "warm boot" or reboot.
