Beep codes .
http://home.wxs.nl/~hjmeijer/PCKnowl...BeepCodes.html http://www.pchell.com/hardware/beepcodes.shtml http://www.pcguide.com/ts/x/sys/beep/index.htm http://www.butterwick0.freeserve.co....shoot/ts8.html http://www.pcguide.com/ts/x/sys/beep/award.htm 1 Long Beep: Memory problem Explanation: There is a failure of some sort related to the system memory. Diagnosis: The first bank of memory probably has a failure of some sort; this is usually just a physical problem such as an incorrectly inserted module, but may also mean a bad memory chip in a module. It is possible that there is a failure related to the motherboard or a system device as well. |

i thought it might have something to do with using the MB cd so i restored back to before i installed that and sure enough it fixed it,NOW what i am wondering is it necessary to use the MD cd with xp? it seems to run very well without that install.

You don't have to use the CD supplied by Intel, because XP has its own set of drivers for that hardware. You could, however, load one driver at a time, to isolate the problem. That or get the latest from intel's web site.

You can just use the windows drivers. I think for intel boards, they are pretty good, anyway. Its when you get into off brands that you start running into troubles.
