| 1201547 | 2011-05-11 23:32:00 | All I get from my computer after pressing the power on button is one continuous beep. The HD is spinning the fans are going DVD drive is going. Computer specs in sig. Using friends computer. Thanks. :( |

| 1201548 | 2011-05-11 23:38:00 | That's no good, sounds like it could be memory (RAM) related Trev or possibly video, I can't find the beep codes for your BIOS right at the moment. Do you know how to pull the side off the case and remove the memory chips? What I would do is power the PC off, removed all the RAM chips, reset the BIOS using the jumpers on the board, (to the left of the battery) and then put just one RAM chip back in, and try it again. |

| 1201552 | 2011-05-12 00:42:00 | OK, try Sol's suggestion - pull out the graphics card and use the onboard video, see if that makes a difference. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1201553 | 2011-05-12 00:51:00 | No difference. :( |

| 1201554 | 2011-05-12 00:58:00 | Unplug all USB devices and try that! | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 1201555 | 2011-05-12 02:41:00 | Actually the computer is sitting on a table with nothing attached to it. When something goes wrong with something I have it really goes wrong. :( |

| 1201556 | 2011-05-12 02:43:00 | Hmmm. Try disabling CPU smart fan in the BIOS. | pctek (84) | ||
