Greetings all!
I have an older Abit AX8 mobo with a Phoenix D686 BIOS that I'm trying to make use of. All is installed and seemingly ready to go. On power-up, I get a beep code of Long, Short, Short, Short. This does not correspond to ANY Phoenix beep code sequence I can find online. Does anyone here have great insight into what that beep code is telling me?
I know it's a Phoenix D686 because it says so right on top of the chip. Nonetheless, since this beep code corresponds to a video error for an Award BIOS, I swapped the video card with a working card from another machine. Still no joy. Tried both a PCI and a PCIe card. Same beep code.
I've stripped the mobo down to a single stick of ram and nothing else. No change in the beep code.
I appreciate any help that can be offered. I'm stumped!
