| At would be nice to know if this is a AMIbios, Pheonix or other BIOS. You gave a make but not the model number. When you boot what does happen once the 4 beeps sound? If this is a desktop try removing the side panel and observing the CPU (processor) fan to ensure it starts to spin and continues to do so. If that fan fails the computer will shut down to protect the CPU. If a laptop try to feel the exhaust fan or even the whir if it is normally loud enough.

| I bet it's one of your peripherals. When you take it to the tech, you just take the tower, right? |

| Pam (pkponder) my be right, do you have a second keyboard to try? Value Village will sell you one for a couple of $$ if you do not have one or cannot borrow one for a few hours. Check the Event viewer To find out which BIOS is installed tap your Delete button a few times as soon as the computer starts and you will enter the BIOS. Change nothing! To leave click the ESC button and agree that you do not wish to save any changes and the computer will boot normally again. |
