309343 2004-12-31 22:19:00 hey guys, i just got this new pc, it worked for a while and 2 days ago when i tried starting it up it goes to a white line on the top left of a black screen left it like that for llike 3 hrs and it still didnt work, i have amd anthlon 3000 xp 64 bit, 1 gb ram, 160 gb hd, and radeon 9600 xt, any suggestions on what i can do to fix it?? crisb2oo7 (6732)
309344 2004-12-31 22:26:00 If its new (less than a year, and under warranty), take it back to where u got it from and get it replaced. Don't attempt to fix it. Speedy Gonzales (78)
309345 2004-12-31 22:33:00 i built the pc my self actually, i dont think its something wrong with the hardware i just think there is something wrong with the bios but dont know what to do crisb2oo7 (6732)
309346 2004-12-31 22:42:00 Ah ok then. Ummm, you could try resetting the CMOS/BIOS, with the jumpers on the motherboard. With the system off. See if that fixes it. Did u flash the BIOS recently, why u think its the BIOS?? When u start/boot the system, can u hear any beeps at all?? Speedy Gonzales (78)
309347 2004-12-31 22:55:00 i can hear beeps and when i try to go flash memory or sometrhing like that it goes beem beem beem stops for a sec and it goes again, when i do the jumper thing i move em then do i turn on my pc or do i move em back right then?? crisb2oo7 (6732)
309348 2004-12-31 22:59:00 U take the BIOS/CMOS jumper off for a while for about 1-3 minutes then put it back on... It wont boot if u leave it off...

Then once u boot the system, see if u can go into the BIOS and set whatever settings u need. Then save the settings in the BIOS.

Those beeps will mean something. Go to your BIOS manufacturer's site and find out what the beeps are telling you.
