pc wont boot - continuous beeping noise

Placebo

Medion make, hadnt turned it on in about a month, now its making a continuous beeping sound and nothing comes on the screen !

i checked the ram slots, they seem to be in tact, might take em out and back in again.


-its a continuous short beep, like the sound you here when u hold on to a key on the keyboard [error type sound]

I think that your CPU is over heating and needs LUBE

Could you check this please and get back to me

i had that a long time and it the motherboard was hosed. check the ram again and power connections to the board.

its covered under the Aldi 3 year warranty right?

i think i got it in 2006, Recipet is probably long gone too,
Also couldnt give away the drive inside, have too much stuff on it.
