Last time I booted this board it worked but the 1st ram slot did not work.
After a couple of years storage, when I attempt to boot I get the continuous beeping sound. I can't find a manual to download, but I am assuming this has the award BIOS. A search suggests that this is the Ram failing to be recognized.
There is no sign of bulging caps or damage to the board.
Do I assume that the memory controller has died?
I have tried various tested working Ram, and always the continuous beep, no matter which slots are used.
Will test the CPU ASAP, but the fact I'm getting the beeps means that it's a ram problem.
Any experience or suggestions? Thanks in advance.
