I recently up graded my system.
Added a new WD SATA 250GB HDD to two other WD hard drives (200 GB & 120GB
EIDE master/slave), and one gig of Corsair PC-3200 memory (2/512MB sticks)
to 2 gigs total.
My motherboard is an ABIT IC7-G with AWARD BIOs.
When I boot the system now; I get a beep that lasts 4 for second, and then
repeats.
According to the AWARD web site:
"The only AwardBIOS beep code indicates that a video error has occurred and
the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to display any additional
information. This beep code consists of a single long beep followed by two
short beeps. Any other beeps are probably a RAM (Random Access Memory)
problems".
But it's not a memory or video problem, as I tested both the memory and
video card (Leadtek GeForce 6600GT 128MB AGP) on two other systems with no
errors.
I got the system to boot once when I reset the BIOs. But once I turned the
system off, and rebooted the peep error returned.
My system is a P4-3.2GHz Prescott proc, 2 gigs (4/512MB) Corsair PC-3200
400MHz, 1 WD SATA 250GB, 1 WD 200GB EIDE, WD 120GB EIDE,
Lite-On DVD/RW/CD-RW, a SoundBlaster Audigy SE, and the above motioned
Leadtek video card.
If any one has any ideas as to what I may have missed, or am doing wrong, it
would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance;
