So i have these two old computers
One is an office pc with a better processor (but unfortunately on a different socket)
The other was my pc for a long time
So a few months back i changed it out, and decided to give it to my sister.
Before giving it to my sister i tried multiple times to change the motherboards, but it never booted, so i just put them back together. Until today i thought it was a BIOS problem, since it refused to go into BIOS (there was a boot screen and an operating system boot screen with a constantly flashing underscore).
I took the hard drive from the office pc and put it into my sisters.
Until today i had swapped back-and-forth the MBs with no problem. Today however was different.
Today i thought that it could probably boot now and i swapped the MBs again. It didn't work, so i put them back together.
Both GPU and CPU fans are spinning.
I have only video,keyboard, mouse and power plugged in, but there is no video, the sensor of the mouse follows this pattern (. is flash, - long flash, a space is nothing)

Keyboard lights for caps and numlock dont update.

- I was able to get into PC info and saw a BIOS revision date, which confused me
- Upon pressing the key to enter the BIOS it beeped once(not a high-pitched one, a deeper, quieter beep), and then just stared beeping continuously(with like a <1s delay between each beep)
