Re: Building my own PC

http://www.amptron.com/html/bios.beepcodes.html

this is a link to general discription of why beeps can be heard as you can see most will give you a warning visually but there are plenty or reasons they can be heard with nothing visable on screen,yes the bios is running but it has not finished post and it is my belief you can not enter bios screen when this occurs.I dont pretend to know it all if im wrong i admit im wrong.At the end of the day i pointed out to ramrod he was missing the motherboard speaker and he is the rest has come from that

Re: Building my own PC

Let us know when you switch on and the explosion takes place. I want to see as your PC blows up so please film it.

Re: Building my own PC

Hey, can we keep it calm and simple .... Rammy is using this to HELP him build this PC .... arguments etc should be taken to PM. What he needs is clear concise information.

Re: Building my own PC

How is the fan speed controlled? The case fans each have 2 power plugs (why two?) but I can't see any plugs that fit the fan controller sockets on the mobo
Is one of the plugs meant to somehow connect to the mobo?

Have your fans got little white plugs?? (about 1cm by 1/2cm???) they fit onto the mobo, the fan i sent you today has this type of connector, with an adpator so you can plug it into the main psu if your mobo doesnt have enough connections
