hi guys,i have a First MotherBoard (AN19E/AN19C) and a AMD XP 3000 for my CPU.all of a sudden today as i try to boot up my PC,my PC gives a very loud double beep sound and it can't boot up after that.i restarted and it happens again.no matter how manytimes i tried it wouldn't work.i assessed that i could be a hardware problem as i used to have this problem after installing an extra fan.but after rebooting my CPU works.i tried removing the extra fan and booting up but it doesn't work also.any solutions?

by the way my 2 strips of 256mb ram are working properly,so i doubt it could be the ram.

and the beeps is actually 1 long beep and 3 short beeps instead of 2 long beeps that i mentioned above

One long and 3 short beeps indicates either a RAM or video adapter problem, depending upon the bios type.
