Recommended Posts

 

Hi

i have AW 18 that boot up very slow and randomly shuts down than goes to 7 beeps and black screen so i was wondering if anyone experience this before and what you guys suggest ?

Thank you

A 7 beep code points to a CPU error. If it is booting slowly as well then it sounds like the CPU is failing. You can try to run a Pre-boot assessment which runs through and tests all your hardware. I think you press F12 while booting and it should take you to the boot menu where you can select the assessment. Other than that you can try to grab a cheap compatible CPU and see how you go. Even though 7 beeps is a CPU error, it could be another part.
