Gigabyte UD4 5 Beeps

(1/1)

mrmaye:
Has anyone ran into a 5 beeps from the board when turning on? When turning on the system, the system powers up (minus the video) sends one beep as if all is ok waits about 3 seconds then sends 5 short beeps. Fans spin about 20 seconds at full speed then settle in at idle speeds. Caps lock and scroll lock work on the keyboard as does sending a ctrl+alt+del. The culprit could very well be the graphics card. Want to see if anyone else has heard of the 5 beeps in any other scenario?

Things I have double checked: The seating of the CPU, bent pins, single memory in the first slot, reseating the memory,  i dont have another gfx card at the moment to test the gfx cards. No memory provided the expected results of a constant beep.

System specs are the following:

i7 5960x
Gigabyte UD4 X99
G skill ripjaws 4 DDR3 2666 32 GB quad channel
500 GB 840 EVO
560 ti (Temporary card)

I'm sure it's just a typo...
But DDR3 is not gonna work on this board.

rniezen:
I have the same issue and i really can't find the problem...

absic:
Latest BIOS for this board is F13a - beta. Are you using this?

If not, what BIOS version are you running?
