ok, here's whats happening: i hit the power button on my computer, and it starts beeping non-stop and nothing happens. no bios, no startup, no memory check, just the computer beeps, and no startup. i've tried everything, that includes: replugging hardware, unplugging hardware, changing monitors, video cards, sound cards, removed dust, opened processor thingy and put it back (incase it's misplaced), recharged the bios battery, and lastly, kicking the computer a bunch of times (u don't believe how pissed off i was when i realized my essay on colombia was due next week) do u have ANY other suggestions, or even better, experience with this situation? meanwhile, i'm lookin for a new motherboard to buy cuz i think that's the problem. --

It's either the memory or your motherboard. |

If it's an asus card, then check the beeps with the instructions booklet. -- Creator and genius behind the skurk-"TimeCrash" mod If a wolf kill a man, man will kill the wolf. -- |
