1 short beep is your BIOS saying "HELLO I'M OK"

Standard Original IBM POST Error Codes

1 short beep Normal POST - system is ok
2 short beeps POST Error - error code shown on screen
No beep Power supply or system board problem
Continuous beep Power supply, system board, or keyboard problem
Repeating short beeps Power supply or system board problem
1 long, 1 short beep System board problem
1 long, 2 short beeps Display adapter problem (MDA, CGA)
1 long, 3 short beeps Enhanced Graphics Adapter (EGA)
3 long beeps keyboard card

Each BIOS company has modified these codes over the years.

Hi, I have a problem that every time I boot my computer it first give
a long beep, and after that a spam of short beeps, I've tried to wait
it out but it won't stop.

U said the spam of beebs can be a power supply error, I tried to fix
that but it won't work either and still gives the beeps...

What can I do next?

Ps; Sorry if my English is bad.
