Some Computer help

I dont know, you say you were downloading. Go to a friends house, create a boot disk then take it from there. Saying that though....xp is a bootable disk mate...if all else fails reformat. Buttttttttt...I cant stress how important Norton anti-virus is....i had avg and found it crap. Norton is the ONLY software I ever bought and is also a bootable disk. Noooooooooooooo, I dont work for Norton lol lol lol

Good luck mate...but remember...ya can reformat if it still goes tits up

mysterywhylay Reviewed by mysterywhylay on 07-25-2004. Some Computer help Well I left my computer on all night because I was d/l some games. When I woke up my computer was making a weird beeping noise like if you hold down too many keys on the keybord (on some computers) it makes a weird ass noise. Now I reset my computer and it keeps saying "sync. out of range" on the monitor and my computer makes a weird non stop beeping noise. I looked in it, nothing look fried, looked under my graphics card all's fine... Any idea? It has only been about 2 hours since it Rating: 5

Try swapping out RAM chips with a friend. Could be ur problem too.

if its your tower that beeps its either your vid,mem or power supply and its probably overheating (they all usually in mos set ups will give warning beeps) also if its your monitor your tube if its a crt might be slightly cracked but not damaged enough I know viewsonic monitors come auto with hardware monitoring "hardwar" installed it usually beeps and you can see it blinking through the grill at back (ventilation). check your bios settings where it gives cpu temp, and check your video card temp and mem temp there are tons of progs that do and depending on your bios it might even be all in there(the temps that is) until you find out what exactly is beeping anything you try is hit and miss. I suggest if its overheating though(I had same prob with beeps, it was a mem chip) putting a "normal" fan on an angle so it blows right into intake of tower (alot of the time towers dont intake enough "cool" air moving air is always cooler than stagnant so try it and if it doesnt work try the others until you find out what exactly it it.) 9 times out of 10 you take it "the professionals" and they have no idea either because there are too many different companies and hardware available for any human being to know it all. so dont' waste your money. Because they charge through the nose....

sorry about those spelling mistakes ppl im a little baked to make an understatement(and if you've got a plasma screen and its making the noise no ideas on my end I hate those things)

[godsbackyard]

how old is the computer? I am pretty sure its a hardware problem w/ that error. I doubt it had anything to do with the download if you're saying you can't even boot to the bios ( which i think is what you're saying )

im guessing vidio card if nothing at all come up on teh screen.

that is called a bios beep. means many things. try unplugging and replugging everything in. i mean everything. take your video card and everything like that and try to plug em back in. if that does not work. you might have a bad bios chip on your mother board. and thats a bitch to fix. just lettin you know
