I get 2 beeps at POST which supposedly means parity circuit failure. I tried playing with the RAM (make sure it seated properly, tried different slots, tried different memory sticks) but that wasn't the problem. I thought it might be the motherboard so I replaced the MOBO and also purchased new RAM. Last night the problem returned.....the house power flickered for a http://forums.devshed.com/motherboards-106/boot-2-beeps-post-187734.html second, the computer went down and then tried to re-boot itself but couldn't. It just gave the two beeps. I completely shut it down for about five minutes then came back and tried booting it and it booted fine. This has happened in the past also where the house power flickers, computer won't re-boot, turn it off for 5-10 minutes and then it starts fine. The problem has also occurred on some cold boots in the morning but that is pretty rare. It's obviously not the MOBO or RAM. What else can cause the 2 beeps? Any thoughts? Thanks.

Beep code is defined by Bios.) Consult your mobo maker and search about its bios.

Power on the PC, and listen to the beeps: no beeps => Power supply, CPU, mainboard or BIOS is most likely defective. some beeps => remember the beeps and next step. Power off the PC, and insert the RAM memory. Power on the PC, and listen to the beeps: no beeps => RAM incorrectly installed. same beeps as before => RAM is
