I've looked for the motherboard booklet high and low. It is bound to
turn up just as Gavin takes it away tomorrow <span
class="moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span><br>
<br>
Regarding the BIOS. That's the problem, nothing is bootable, nothing
on the screen, no start-up, no access to CD/DVD R/W drive so I can't
even boot to a 'live' distro. 'tis dead man. Just the
dah-dit-dit-dit.<br>
<br>
But I have great faith in Gavin, he's been in touch and will drop in
tomorrow afternoon. Such excellent service.<br>

Good morning all,<br>
<br>
Gavin, whom I think lives in Birchington, built me a
splendid AMD64<br>
desktop several years ago. He also partakes of this group
frequently too.<br>
<br>
I need to talk to him now because that PC failed to boot
yesterday.<br>
After half a dozen burps around the HD it fails with a
dah-dit-dit-dit<br>
bleep.<br>
<br>
Can someone, Gavin preferably, let me have his contact
details as we<br>
need to arrange for him to bend his expertise to fixing
it.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>

The beep sequence can tell you what has failed. Have a look up
for your BIOS and you can tell what you need to buy.<span
