no thats not the problem...i already have


anyways like i said i was going to let it cool down and then retry, thank God it worked.  so installed some drivers for some of my devices and then restarted and got that stupid beeping thing that i got over the summer.  you turn the computer on and all it does it beep so now i have to let it cool down for that.  now i have search for the thread i made ages ago about how i got my gfx card to work on my computer.  basically i really should delete this thread, but if any other errors i am confused about occur i will let yall know.  i will delete this thread if i have no further questions.  thanks anyways.

Is it a beep the stop the beep? if so thats a Ram problem.

no its not a RAM problem...its a beep that continues forever.  now i have discovered that it is being caused by my wireless internet card.  only if it is plugged in the beeping occurs.  i have no idea why this is happening.

that can be prolly a driver problem...
i think...

how would it be a driver problem when no drivers are loaded in the bios?

you're learning, but drivers aren't loaded in the bios anyway =p they're loaded in windows and it uses them as a sort of gateway between the devices and windows itself =p

If you have another computer, try the nic in it. Also, try the nic in a different location. Also, remove the nic and go into the bios and check the settings of its previous pci port.

sure i will try the wireless card on another computer.  i was trying to boot in safe mode and the computer froze and now its making this beeping sound with out the card...i have so little patience for this.  all because i went to a dodgy site and thought i was getting a no cd crack.  well lets hope that this will all work out.


edit:  the card works fine on my spare computer.  i dunno what is going on really.  i just want the beeping to stop.  should i take to battery out of the Mobo and then put it back in?  i have done this before and it helped.  any other help will result in a thanks you.


edit 2:  finally figured it out.  too much to type.  so ill just end the thread.
