204582 2003-12-31 23:08:00 I was playing AOE II when my screen froze. After closing down, I rebooted and my monitor LED went green then orange and stayed orange then the computer seemed to shut itself down.
I also noted during boot, the following beep code - 1 long 3 short beeps. is this the end or is there a solution i.e. new monitor / video card or ram

The beeps your PC is making depend on just _what_ BIOS your PC is running...

Google is your friend here, but here's what I found:
www.uktsupport.co.uk
and
www.computercraft.com

Its likely a Memory Error or Video Error.

Im willing to be your Graphics card has died or come loose, hence no display.

Try opening the case and making sure your Graphics card is firmly plugged in.

Of course if you have Onboard VGA, then you'll need to go purchase a new Graphics card :-)

Hope this helps


Chill.
