My home built Abit KR7A computer worked for 2+ years. It started to act "squirrely" for a few days and now won't boot. Powers up and then I get a long beep, pause, long beep, pause,etc. Fans run, etc. So far, I tried the RAM in another computer and it worked fine. I replaced the motherboard with a new Abit NF7-S2 and I still get the same beep pause beep (no boot) problem. What the heck??? There isn't a heck of a lot left. Power supply?? Help and any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Dave My home built Abit KR7A computer worked for 2+ years. It started to act "squirrely" for a few days and now won't boot.

Does it beep without the video card in-place ? B4 you criticize a bigger man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, you're a mile away, and you have his shoes.

Thanks for the response!! I just pulled everything but one stick of RAM. Computer still beeps. Dave My home built Abit KR7A computer worked for 2+ years. It started to act "squirrely" for a few days and now won't boot. Powers up and then I get a long beep, pause, long beep, pause,etc. Fans run, et

Hopefully your CPU is not the culprit, BTW how many beeps are we talking about here ? B4 you criticize a bigger man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, you're a mile away, and you have his shoes.

We're talking a long beep (2 sec), a 4 sec pause, a long beep, etc., continuously. By the way, THANK YOU for the line about walking a mile in another man's shoes. It gave me a good laugh while I was pulling my hair out about that computer. My home built Abit KR7A computer worked for 2+ years. It started to act "squirrely" for a few days and now won't boot.

You've pretty much ruled out every other possibility other than the CPU............;~( B4 you criticize a bigger man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, you're a mile away, and you have his shoes.

You are probably right, but I'm going to screw around with the memory a little bit more. I have six sticks of this Crucial DDR2100 registered memory... and all but two have had to go back for warranty replacement. Thanks anyway. I think I have another CPU I can sub in this machine to see what happens. Thanks for the responses! Dave My home built Abit KR7A computer worked for 2+ years.
