Title: beep codes after X minutes of OS boot
Post by: sunzaru on April 05, 2007, 08:41:46 PM

First off.. the time on X is random.  5 minutes to 3 hours.

beep tones are Low then High (not sure if they are short or long but are same duration.. i think long if based off the bios single beep tone)  and the beeping continues until after i reboot.  the OS still runs while it beeps, but becomes very "choppy".  i also seem to loose internet connection more frequently once the beeping starts (wireless network).

i have unpluged everything and reseated them.  give my video card it's own power line from the power supply.

3 hard drives 1 dvd, sound card,  wireless usb nic, usb mouse and usb keyboard.

This setup has worked for months, no "new" hardware, and now this starts up... any ideas?
