Hello:
I'm having a problem with a re-build of a Duron System.
Originally, the system was a Duron 1300MHZ on a ECS K7S5A (rev 1)
mainboard with
256 MB of PC-133 SDRAM, 40GB hdd and 32MB AGP video Card.
The processor was damaged due to the heatsink being improperly installed
so I gutted the system and upgraded to a newer one on an ASUS mobo.
Now I'm trying to build a cheap internet system with the leftover parts.
I bought a used Duron 700MHZ CPU, it was tested and works fine. The RAM
is the original
256 MB PC-133 SDRAM that was in the machine before the upgrade.
I needed a hard drive and video card to complete the system. I bought a
cheap pci video card and a 6GB hard drive. All were tested before
installation and worked.
Now after assembling the system I get 4 beeps on post up. 1 long with 3
short beeps.
I've checked online with regard to beep codes and get different answers.
The BIOS is AMI. I don't believe it has ever been upgraded [flashed].
Any suggestions as to what might be wrong?
I'd appreciate the help.
TIA!!
