    For the Veriton X2660G models, the beep codes are:

    So one long and one short beep shows that the BIOS is corrupt. If it will not boot farther the CMOS chip will have to be reprogrammed. Many technicians have the tools to reflash a chip, but most end users do not.

    So what to do? Go to a technician so they can flash the BIOS on my pc?

    I asked chatgpt what to do and gpt said i make a recovery flashdrive, by converting the flashdrive to FAT32 and put the BIOS file there. I don't have another pc to format it to FAT32 and im having problems trying to figure out what app to use to Format the flashdrive to FAT32. I used the other app like USB all in one tool and other stuff by Mixapplication but it didn't work.
