I went on vacation for a week and my computer was running fine. Then when I got home and started it up my computer there were long spread out beeps 2 seconds about and they don't stop it just keeps going. My mouse,keyboard, and monitor don't come on. I have an 8800 gt and a 650i ultra motherboard. If any other specs are needed il post. The weird part is I got it to work before I dusted it out, but then it stopped working. I tried replacing the ran as I have seen in other posts the beep still continues

Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 7.0

I've got the same problem. I've got a Dell Dimension E510 2003 XP. My computer was running fine till one morning I turned it on and it started beeping the beeps last about 4 seconds and are around 2 seconds apart they won't stop they just keep on going. Plus my monitor,keyboard,and mouse don't respond. But when I turn it off for about 4 hours and try to turn it back on it will work fine then do that same thing again after around 5 hours. When it is at the desktop and does that it goes to the command prompt and says Drive 2 not found and then it freezes up on me. Does anyone one know what this means. When I took off the side panel the beep sounded like it was coming from Drive Bay 1. Anyone have any advice?

Thanks

The computer could have something in the hard drive so check the it to see what is wrong if that is not the case then the motherboard is about to go out

I ran some performance checks for physical and logical errors, I cleaned up my registry and it found 2100 errors. I also freed up some of my RAM. I opened the PC up I took the drive out then put it back in; everything seems to be fine, its been working for about 2 weeks now.

The ram are sticks of memory on the mother board. Best thing to do if you care to start troubleshooting your hardward would be to find a site that has descriptive pictures of a motherboard and all the chips and cards, and being sure of what is what before you start poking around. Once you know what everything is though and have some confidence in it, as long as you dont start trying to solder random things, it is fairly simple to install RAM or vid/sound cards.
