Since you are getting system beeps, see if you can track
down a beep code list on your board. I had a similar problem once,
and come to find out from the beep codes, one of my RAM sticks came unseated
enough to goof it up.
BIOS virus could do it. If you flash it, maybe
that would solve it (ooo, Field of Dream flashback). Or, just get a cheap
board like you are doing too. But if you've never flashed a BIOS, good
time to try and learn! From: EMAIL:PROTECTED [mailto:EMAIL:PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fallert, Adam Christian Sent: Thursday, May 06, 2004 9:17 AM To: MLUG Members Subject: RE: [MLUG] Does any have a old chip and Motherboard Yeah, I checked the
battery. The machine will power up. It will not detect any AGP video
cards. It will however detect a PCI video card, but then it just starts to
beep at me and the monitor flashes in odd patterns and asci code with the
beep. I am suspecting that
the bios may have been hit with a bios virus sometime before I bought the
motherboard on eBay. As always with bios viruses, they tend to strike on
or after a specific date. _______________________________________ From:

Wyant Maybe you need to Flash
your BIOS...Are you getting any signs of life from your machine when you hit the
power button? Don't forget to check the on board battery and power
connections running to the board itself. I've seen board batteries go bad
and create havoc like this. just my 2
cents From:

On Behalf Of Does anyone have an old p2, p3 or
AMD equivalent and corresponding motherboard you would like to get rid of?
My dedicated Linux box at home somehow got zapped during my move into a new
house. Basically, I powered it down, moved it by car, let it sit for a
couple weeks, and now it won’t post upon power up.
I am desperate. I have a lot
of files on there that I need access to soon. Thanks in
advance Adam _______________________________________ |
