Yeah, whats the amount and length of the beeps. 2 short and 1 long is usually a monitor error. Be grateful your getting to POST. It's more aggrivating when you hit the power button and you get nothing... |

That certainly is an old motherboard (over a decade old). And you say this all worked before you 'took the PC apart'? How exactly did you take apart the PC? I assume you mean you unscrewed the motherboard from the case and mounted the mobo and drives in the cocktail? |

It's a P4 1.7 Ghz. But I took it apart one piece at a time. I labeled all the cables to make sure they went in the proper way when reconnected. I did take each part out and placed them in the cocktail. Why do you ask? |

Your link above is for an old Pentium motherboard, and the manual says it was written in 1995. ??? I only ask about how much you took apart so that maybe you could reverse your steps to try and figure out where something went wrong. |
