About 18 months ago he decided he wanted more RAM in it so he got some from "somebody" and tried to put it in. He could not get it in or something and brought the machine to me with no RAM in it. I am NOT a computer geek so I dove right in and tried to put in the stick he handed me. There are white slots and black slots on the board, I think it was two of each. The stick would not fit the white, so I put it in the black and hooked up a monitor and mouse and plugged it in. I get a long beep and three short ones and then a long beep. Should I try to buy the right RAM for it or is something else shot? JB Post a reply Discussion is locked Flag Permalink You ar

If you truly don't hear anything, either your computer's power supply, motherboard, or PC speaker is no good. 1 short System RAM Refresh failure. Your programmable interrupt timer on your motherboard has failed. It could also be your interrupt controller, but either way, your motherboard will need to be replaced to fix it. 2 short Your computer has memory problems. First, check video. If video is working, you'll see an error message. If not, you have a parity error in your first 64K of memory. Check your SIMMs. Reseat them and reboot. If this doesn't do it, the memory chips may be bad. You can try switching the first and second bank memory chips. First banks are the memory banks in which your CPU finds its first 64K of base memory. You'll need to consult your manual to see which bank is first. If all of your memory tests good, you probably need to buy another motherboard. 3 short Same as 2 beeps; follow diagnosis above. 4 short Your problem could be a bad timer. The system timer failed to work properly. It will require motherboard replacement. Note: for systems with hardware monitoring installed, this beep error may also signify that the CPU fan has stopped working or it is not plugged into the CPU fan header. 5 short CPU Failure. Replace the CPU or possibly the motherboard. 6 short The chip on your motherboard that controls your keyboard isn't working. First, try anot
