Fix Issues of Gateway Computer Black Screen and Beeping on Startup

When you start your computer, it runs a POST (Power-On Self-Test) to check that different hardware components are functioning properly. If the issues are recognized, the system will not turn on. This test goes before the PC is ready to show something on the screen, so if any errors are detected, the system will beep to indicate a fault. If you’re using the Gateway computer, then following troubleshooting steps help identify common issues and isolate faulty components that can cause the system to beep without requiring the call on the Gateway computer customer service number that helps you get in touch with PC experts and avail a hassle-free solution.

1.       Firstly, check the keyboard peripheral to make sure that no keys are stuck or being held down. Revolve your fingers over the keyboard to check and free any keys that may be stuck. Also, try to change the keyboard with a new one and start your system again to check if the problem is fixed.

2.       Check all connected cables and ensure they’re entirely connected to. Check each cable and connect wires tightly as necessary. Also, eliminate the objects blocking the system’s air vents. If the dust found in the vent, remove the external vents and vacuum dust carefully from the vents and heat sinks in the system.

3.       Disconnect devices connected to the Gateway system, such as USB sticks, printers, hubs, remote receivers and exterior drives. If your PC starts without peripherals connected, then one of these devices may be faulty. Reconnect them one-by-one to check which is defective.

Remove and reinsert all internal cards and connectors, such as the memory, excepting the CPU. If you have two memory cards is installed, troubleshoot each one at a time. Check each card is placed entirely in its selected slot.

3.          Remove all internal components such as expansion cards, hard drives, card readers and optical drives. If the system runs without connecting to the internal devices, one of them may be faulty. Reconnect them one-by-one to check which is damaged.
