Single Beep Error Message
Hi and thanks in advance for any help you might offer,
I have an ABIT K7 motherboard with an AMD Atlhon CPU. All has been going well for a while now, that is until a few day ago when I started to get a single long beep during POST. Normally a single beep mean OK but this single beep keeps repeating itself every one or two seconds. I've checked the ABIT site and they don't mention what this message means. I've removed all of the cards and even reset the BIOS to the default settings, still get the same results. If you have any idea what may be wrong, I'd appreciate your input. thanks Tom |

Try reseating or substituting it with a known good one. If it does turns out to be the memory and you have more than one stick installed, try them out one by one. -Zotin |
