Hello,
I'm having a large issue with my computer. It beeps one long time and the monitor will not turn on. I replaced one of the fans because I thought the cpu might be the problem. I also moved both sticks of memory into the other two sockets.

Configuration: Windows XP. EVGA 780i SLI. EVGA 8800 GTS x2. DD2 800 2GB ram sticks x2
Firefox 3.5.2

Actually I take that back. Its more like 5-6 very short beeps, instead of one very long one.
