no POST beep, boots fine

My refurb gen3 doesn't give a POST beep but boots and runs ok.
I've tried the a03 and a05 BIOS with no difference.
When I reset the BIOS to default I get one long beep so I know the internal
speaker is ok.
I would like to fix this for possible future trouble-shooting.
Or should I forget about it.

All suggestions and ideas are appreciated.

I don't believe any of my Dimensions beep when they boot properly. Who
cares?

Thanks, I didn't know that.
I don't really care, except that if it is supposed to work I think it
should.

I think they just suppress them until there is a problem.
