anybody have any suggestions for me?
i took my comp on the plane with me, and now it doesn't work!!!
it makes a few quick beeps right after you turn it on, which is odd.
and also it won't send a signal to the monitor, so maybe a vid card prob??

If beep is

beeeeeeep beep beep bepp

then it is a video card prob, take out the video card and place it back in. It could have come loose in the airline very easily.

KFM (Kentucky Fried Memory) perhaps? Your mamaboard manual should have a listing of error beeps or bepps and what they mean. And remember, when all else fails, there is always the hammer.




:stab: me later.

The manufacture of the MainBoard should have info on the bios that is in it,the Beeps are a warning, telling you something is wrong,from a mouse or keyboard not connected to a fried MainBoard.Open the case and find the MainBoard number and than do a Google search on the net . That will tell you more about what bios your compter has and what the error may be.
