I've been reading though alot of forms and google alot on this subject for a while and i noticed that alot of people have diffrent reasons behind this and diffrent problems.
Mine started this morning my computer made 4 short beeps I knew that it ment an error with something and well I googled and found out i had to remove all my removalbe chips like ram and video card... to see if it had dust, well all i did was remove the Ram chips or card one by one and check to see if they had dust well they didn't have any dust that i could see but i went ahead and cleaned them a bit with a Swiffer =p
well my computer loaded up so much faster (before the beeps my computer was taking nearly 2 to 3 hrs to load up from the frist screen to the desktop screen) but now it won't start windows it just takes me to a black screen saying "Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key" I hit every key on my key bored and only one key made a beep every time i hit it the print screen key but thats besides the point, another thing is i'm not very smart with computers I fail with them big time but I really care about this computer because a friend of mine but no longer talk to built it for me and programed it etc. and really care to keep it working for if the day comes he forgives me he can see that i really dedicated alot to keeping a healthy computer, and well i got recovery cds for windows xp but donno if it will work with this one since its a diffrent computer I donno what else to say so plz help id greatly apprciate it
