If it does you should hear something like a single beep. If it doesn't complete the POST and freezes before you hear any beeps then having a quick look at your motherboards manual says that it should vocally say something like "system failed cpu test" (<a href="http://dlsvr.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/sock478/P4P800-E%20DX/e1867_p4p800-e_deluxe.pdf" target="_blank">http://dlsvr.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/sock478/P4P800-E DX/e1867_p4p800-e_deluxe.pdf</a>) section 3.3Does it say anything like that? It might be quite quiet if it does and you may not have heard it before.Have you also tried just booting up with just a single stick of ram in the motherboard? Try putting a single stick in different slots, also try it with the other stick too (I'm assuming your 1gb is made up of more than 1 stick). That's all i can think of right now.I was also hoping you guys might be able to offer me some insight into my problems with TV3 and C4 (DVB-T). Just recently, maybe a week ago, i have started to get terrible reception with those channels. I first thought it was a de-interlacing problem but it is the same sort of problem you get with sky just before you get rain fade (really choppy and mixed up picture). I did a rescan for channels with the tvserver and it now looks like i have zero signal strength and quality for TV3 and C4, enough to get some picture and sound but not enough for watchable tv.I live in Auckland, maybe 100 meters south of One Tree Hill, and the aerial on the roof has a clear line of sight to Waiatarua. What confuses me is that all the other channels work perfectly fine apart from TV3 and C4. Surely since they are all coming from the same broadcast location I should be getting the same strength for all channels? Any ideas what could be going on?Any help is appreciatedCheers</blockquote>
