IC7-G Bootup problems

[Guest]

I built a PC several months ago now. Everything was working fine until
everything froze. When I turned my PC on, it no longer boots, it simply
beeps! The beeping pattern is a continued beep for roughly 5 seconds, then a
pause for about 2 seconds, and then the process is repeated. I'm unable to
find any receipts for any of my components so it's difficult to contact the
reseller. I'm certain that these beeps will identify the failed hardware
component and I will have to procure a replacement. Can anyone identify the
failed component from these beeps or/and point me to the tech info where I
can read up on this issue.



Thanks in advance.

I'm sure someone here could help you, Michael, if you cared to tell
them what system setup you're getting this problem with.

Wise, knowledgeable and helpful though many of the contributors here
are, none of them are actually psychic. ;-)

Looks like RAM problems, I have exactly the same when I set my RAM
timings too tide.
Try reset CMOS by jumper, don't forget to unplug the power before you do
