Loud beep low beep??

lorne · 03-17-2004, 07:39 PM

SYS specs:

CPU: 2500 Mobile
MOBO: NF7-S
RAM: 512 MB samsung PC 3200
Hd: Seagate 40 GB 7200 rpm
Vid card: mx 440

Temps under load CPU:48 deg C/ Case 27 Deg C

So i just went into abit EQ to check stuff out and as soon as i open it i get a constant tone of a low beep by a high beep. The manual says nothing about it. And i read in here it could mean the cpu is damaged but it has been folding since yesterday and i have had no problems.

Anybody know what this might mean??

Sounds like a temp warning. Might have the threshhold set to low in BIOS.

Thanks rbreb, i found it one of my voltage rails is off i think. Have a look, the unchecked box is the one that was causing beep. I need to get a proper PSU i think. Will this be ok to run until i get a better psu??

Should be fine. Other rails look good. And I don't even have a clue why/what/where the -12v does anyways.

in an electrical circut the ammount of the energy put in must be equal to the ammount of energy that must be removed. So since you're inputting 12+v, -12v must be taken out of the circut.

i think

Thanks for the info guys good to know it was nothing serious.

off topic: I didn't want to start a thread about this, but when you run prime95, do you do torture test or benchmark?

My machines fold 24-7 so that is what i use it works as good as prime 95. Is that what you mean??
