Ive just been building a PC for a family member and I cant get it to POST, hardware is as below:
Intel E5300
Asrock G31M-S G31
Corsair XMS2 4GB 800mhz
With no other hardware plugged in im getting 3 beeps, a pause, 3 more etc..
As far as I can tell that would point to a memory issue, ive tried 3 different sticks of ram in it (including one out of my machine) but still get the same beeps. In fact I get exactly the same if I turn it on with no memory installed..
Ive tried reseating everything including the CPU, still no luck
I havent tried a different CPU yet as that will be a bit more awkward.
Anyone any ideas?
