I have 2 memory cards in my system (128 x 2) and I took one out to add a 512MB card. after I installed it and rebooted, my moniter would not show anything and it started to smell funny. I didnt know what my problem is and now I can get the fan on and system up but the beep noise doesnt happen and my moniter just flashes the little light. Please help!
