Title: Computer won't load Post by: STFC_Manc on Wednesday, July 7, 2010, 07:13:32 When I try to load my computer it turns on then starts to load but when it gets to the memory test, where it should count the memory. It doesn't start to count and just does nothing.
I have replaced RAM, it doesn't do anything. I have taken out all PCI cards, taken all the RAM out and the motherboard beeps (I read somewhere that means the MB is fine). But I have now run out of ideas, any one had a similar problem before? Title: Re: Computer won't load Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, July 7, 2010, 07:22:27 How many beeps?
Title: Re: Computer won't load Post by: STFC_Manc on Wednesday, July 7, 2010, 07:40:32 contiuous beeps I think.

Can you try the memory in another machine? If it definitely isn't faulty I'd say it's either a BIOS setting gone mad or your motherboard's knackered.
