Im using an ASrock A520-HDV motherboard, and when i was rebooting my computer to boot it into windows (i have windows 10 and arch linux installed) it showed the grub menu for 1 second and then the screen went totally black, so i pushed the reset button of my case, but when i did that the computer didnt POST and it started to beep 3 consecutive times followed by 1 beep, then stopping and doing it all over again, i reseted the cmpuer with the power supply and it booted normally, but i want to know what those beeps mean, i also checked the motherboard’s manual and it doesnt say anything

    If you have multiple sticks, you can remove a bad one until you can replace it. Many memory modules have a lifetime warranty so you can often get them replaced by the manufacturer. I don’t think there’s a scenario where the system will stay stable with a bad stick installed.

      i already tested the ram, 0 errors, i think it is something with grub, probably because i configured it to be able to work with secure boot, i already had that problem before (but without the beeps, only the black screen, that was problably because i pressed the reset button too fast and it triggered something) anyway, thank you
