|
|
Trying to get my pc a working, Im guessing graphics card but thought i would run it by the experts.
Im getting one long beep then about 5 seconds will pass then another long beep. This will continue on till i shut pc down.
I have put a new battery on board, I have tested my PSU. Are there other area's that I am missing. I have looked at the mother boards website at their beep codes but it doesn't list my problem that i can see. What am i overlooking.
1.AWARD BIOS 1short beep ：System normal 2 short beep ：CMOS Error 1 long beep and 1 short beep：Memory error 1 long beep and 2 short beep：Graphic card error 1 long beep and 3 short beep ：AGP error 1 long beep and 9 short beep ：Memory Error Continuous long beep ：Memory not correctly installed Continuous short beep ：Power supply unit failed 2.AMI BIOS 1 short beep ：Memory Error 2 short beep：Memory parity check error. 3 short beep ：basic memory 64K address check error 4 short beep ：Real Time Clock malfunction . 5 short beep ：CPU error 6 short beep：Keyboard error 7 short beep ：CPU interruption error 8 short beep：Graphic card error 9 short beep ：Memory error 10 short beep ：CMOS error 11 short beep ：CPU cache memory malfunction |

I am no longer getting the one long beep. pulling cards and memory and reinserting them has given what sounds like a proper post beep, but I still have nothing on monitor. I am still guessing and really hoping that only my graphics card gave out. |

| Have you tried unplugging the power supply and removing the motherboard battery for a half hour or so? Not knowing what motherboard you have, if it has onboard video, you can also remove the video card and then install the battery & power, and get into the bios - setting it to defaults to try & boot the computer. Without more info on your hardware, there's not much else to suggest. Hope this helps some. |

I unplugged everything for 30 or so minutes. I still have nothing on monitor. Guess I will buy a basic graphics card and see what that will do for pc.
Thanks again |

Gigabyte 7n400pro2.......Nvidia 8x card.......Acer flat monitor
I have been shopping around and seeing the prices of the new 8x graphics cards, what use to be a 25 dollar card is now a whoppin 100 dollars. It's cheaper to upgrade in the long run i guess. I need to hit the flee markets for a cheap deal. |
