Computer has one long beep then 8 short beeps?

[elliotthenshaw02]

No idea what’s happened, I’m definitely not the most experienced person when it comes to PC’s going wrong. I was just trying to launch a game when my computer started to display no signal. Went to restart it which is when it started beeping, I’ve unplugged my graphics card and plugged it back in, did the same with my ram but didn’t fix it either.

Motherboard: 970a SLI Krait Edition
Graphics card: GV-R939G1 GAMING-8GD

Any help would be really appreciated

Your motherboard has an AMI BIOS. Are you sure the x16 slot is clean?

AMI BIOS beep codes: 1 Long, 8 Short Beeps = Display / retrace test failed. Re-seat the video card.

Clear the CMOS.

1 Long Beep + 2 Short Beeps

One long beep and two short beeps is usually an indication of a failure within the memory that's part of the video card.
Replacing the video card is almost always the route to go here, but be sure to try removing and reinstalling it first, just in case the only problem is that it has wiggled a bit loose.
