Answer» Hey Everyone,
Here's what HAPPENED. I was online, then CLOSED out the window and my computer froze. So naturally I hit ctrl/alt/delete keys and nothing happened. So I hit it again about 3 more times and my computer restarts, only it instead of restarting normally, I get 1 LONG beep and 2 short beeps and my computer doesn't come on. So after a little research it looks like I'm not passing the POST, and it may have something to do with a video component? How do I get PAST this?!? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Robert .....1 long and 2 short beeps would indicate a vid problem.....try uninstalling your vid card .......remove it from MOTHER board and then replace it and its drivers as well ( make sure the power is off when you remove the card and you be sure to touch a unpainted part of the case to remove the possiblity of a static spike.)
dl65 I will give it a try. So just remove the card, replace it, and then my computer should come on and I can re-install the drivers correct? (I'm not much of a computer wiz unfortunatly). Get back to me plz!!! I appreciate the help. robert ......yes just go ahead and remover the card......and reboot.....it shouldnt come up .......then shut down ......plug the card back in ( make sure its seated properly ) and startup again ....... One more thing ....do you have a good updated anti virus program installed ? let us know how you make out
dl65 Everything worked great!!! I really appreciate all your help...and really glad I found your web site. It's a lifesaver Keep it going!!
