Solve : 1 long beep at start-up?

1.	Solve : 1 long beep at start-up?
Answer» I just built my pc with MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum MB , AMD 64 3000, Kingston DDR400 1GB and Coolmax CX-450B 450W power supply. When I use the power button in front I get 1 long beep and nothing happens but if I hit the front button to TURN on and then use the power button in back, off then back on again I get 1 short beep and everything is fine. Thanks for your help!Recheck all installed hardware/or reset it ram sticks etc..............check mobo manual........Some 64 Msi boards dont like Audigy 1 sound cards-do you have one?Mine did the same until I binned the CARDI'm using the built-in sound on MB,no sound card. One other thing that bothers me is that I sent 3 e-mails to MSI tech support with no reply also the manual is light on trouble shooting. Thanks for the responses. Recheck all cables and connectors Reseat all hardware. -- Technical support never responds during weekends. If you have written to them during a work day and not received a reply in at LEAST 5 DAYS, I suggest you E-mail again but this time pay specific attention to any demands they may place on your E-mail. For example: certain technical support wants you to PUT a specific text in the subject line or otherwise their filters will consider your message spam.Dan Have you tried the very helpful MSI forums here http://forum.msi.com.tw/ Forgive if you already have been there
