So yesterday my comp parts come in from newegg and I built it. But when I turn it on nothing comes on the monitor and the comp beeps every few seconds!
Basically I can't even get something on the screen, the monitor goes from being on to standby when i connect it to the comp.
Specs:
ASPIRE X-Navigator ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 450W Power Supply
AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Venice 1GHz FSB Socket 939 Processor Model

SAPPHIRE Radeon X850XT PE 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16
OCZ Value 2GB RAM (PC 3200)
Seagate 160GB Hard Drive
its Phoenix award bios..but i dunno how to understand the beeps :dead:
 
This can only be worked out by someone that can hear the beeps. You have the correct idea of what you're listening for. All I can really suggest is listen some more. Trying to make out the slightly longer gaps that create the grouping.
