Hey guys,

I had my computer runnign at 215 * 12 fine for three weeks.

I packed up my tower andm oved to school and tried to turn it on 4 hours after i turned it off at home. Now it'll go past the BIOS screen and stay in the bios for even up to 15 mintues fine.... but as soon as it starts bootign and when it gets past loadign the sata card and drives... it stops and all fans turn off and it starts beeping HIGH low HIGH low.... it wont stop until i pull the plug and wait for the power in the psu to drain like a minute...

now it will only run at 133*12.. all i tried so far... it wont go back up... it still crashed once in the past two days running at 133...

idk why its messed up...

any ideas?

The only thing I can come up with off the top of my head is that maybe the hsf shifted a little during the move and part of the core is getting hot or maybe something came loose inside and is giving an intermittent ground on the mobo or something like that. It sounds like something physically happened to cause this to happen, since it occurred right after the move. The only other possible thing I can possibly think of is that I had a simialr problem a year or 2 ago; any time i moved my rig, I had problems booting and it did this for a couple of months. It was caused by an IBM Deathstar GXP75 hard drive that was slowly going south and it finally died after a couple of months of that crap.

Ditto

Try reseating everything, flash the bios etc and see if it works

Try To Restore Defaults And Increase Speed Step By Step. May Be It Could Help.

talk to it gently, say really nice things about it, how nice it looks etc.. if that fails, loudly threaten to sell it... in pieces.. :D
