    Help Beeping machine

    Hi all,
    I just recently re-capped a motherboard and now im trying to put it back into a system. I get it all put together and everything and cannot get it to shut up(stop beeping) It just sits there in continual BEEP........BEEP........BEEP.. I need some help on what i should try, I have switched processors, switched memory sticks, unplugged the hard drive, is there something disconnect or what's the problem? I get power and everything it seems like normal except for this annoying little BEEP.

    Thanks

    Check to make sure the CPU fan is one that gives an rpm signal, and that it's connected to the proper fan header on the board.

      Will the manual tell me exactly where to plug the fan into? Or do i just have to guess, because on the board there is a connector right directly behind the CPU so i figured this would correspond to run the fan, it seems to me that this is some kind of memory beep, but i have swaped the memory out, so I dont know what is going on. I will try your suggestion and see if i can find out if i connected the fan right or not.

        did the board work after recapping?
        did you test it outside the case?
        did it work before the recap?

          I am trying to test your first question, This is the point I am at, It worked before the re-cap i believe but it had bad video and the agp slot did not work to add a new video card because the caps took the functions of it out. No i haven't tried it out of the case, what is it i can do out of the case or where can i put it to test it that is safe and will not harm the board?

          Thanks

              Repeated and IF long bleeping is usually RAM related. It's probably because the RAM isn't being detected at all, the RAM is bad or it don't like the RAM.

              Short bleeping likely is caused by the motherboard thinking that there's a processor overheat problem.

                just fire it up on a stat bag on the bench.
                that will eliminate things like standoff shorts.
                get it to a bright light and magnifier to check for solder shorts.
                as for the agp look for vrm damage near it.

                  I tried the method of putting it on the bench and didn't really find anything. But i got looking and found a trace that looks like it was melted and possibly destroyed during the soldering process. I dont know if this is it,but probably is, just thought i would offer this as a suggestion to the problem.
