> umm... so did you get it to work now or what? Do you still get beeping? I'd remove the video card (if you have one) and ram, then reinstall them. Chip creep can effect RAM while appearing to be fully seated...
I was thinking of that......I also remembered that my memtest disc requires one stick inserted at a time. So I did that and each stick was testable - but the first one took twice as long to run through a pass - no errors in the pass - I didn't let it run for hours, though. I then reset the bios and tried to boot from the faster-testing stick, and it has. I haven't re-inserted the first stick. So maybe it was that.
Scifi frauds. SF illuminates.
