Q: 3 beeps and black screen - macbook air
I wa on my macbook air and then I closed her and opened her like 10 minutes later and then the screen was black and It started beeping loud, 3 beeps.
I could not do anything but then I was holding the turn off/on button down and the beeps stopped. I presses the on/off button again and everything was okay.
I don't know what this means. I google'd it and I saw this : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1547?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
1 beep = no RAM installed
2 beeps = incompatible RAM types
3 beeps = no good banks
4 beeps = no good boot images in the boot ROM (and/or bad sys config block)
5 beeps = processor is not usable
I had 3 beeps = no good banks
What does that mean ? Is something wrong with my computer?
Please help me !
MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.3), 13 ''

Unless it happens again, don't worry; occasional glitches happen. If it does happen, take the computer in for repair.
It's possible that that series of beeps means that an attempt was made to boot the computer from a Mac OS X version too old for it.
