| 73057 | 2002-08-21 18:25:00 | I have a 486 that I use to run a thermal printer. It is making 4 beeps when starting but doesn't boot properly. I can hear hte hard drive working away like it is loading windows but have nothing on the screen. Can anyone suggest what may be wrong. Anymore info required? | g4rs (744) | ||

| 73059 | 2002-08-21 20:54:00 | The AMI bios will give 4 beeps if there is a so-called system timer failure with the motherboard. The m/b is most probably a write-off. |
