  1. I have a problem booting up a computer. When i try to boot it without a floppy drive it does a continuous code beep. It says BIOS ROM checksun error. When i try to boot it with a floppy drive in it says please insert system disk and hit enter. At this point i have no system disk and the keyboard is frozen. I cannot hit control alt delete and cannot enter the BIOS. Yet sometimes if booted up enough it will turn on and work perfect. If for any reason it reboots it will not work forever it seems. If anyone has any suggestions please help.
  2. I simply upload all my files to filefeak then send the people i want to have then a link. I get max upload by doing this and they get max download
  3. I am not experiencing humming it is accually a warning from the motherboard telling me that the fan has stopped and it only happens when idol so its gota be a setting. The new fan is nice and queit i guess its not all that big of a threat because it only does it when cold but scares me that it does turn off i have never had this. Nothing is stock on this pc. I built it piece by piece even windows pro sp2 on it. I use the same stuff on every pc i build this maken me think it has to be a bios setting. But i just cant find it no matter how many times i look in the bios it drives me nuts not to know i am kind of a perfectionist when it comes to my pc running fast. I am not to big into overclocking but love to tweek it in setting to make it perform faster and use programs many programs. You can have the greatest piece of equiptment on the planet and if your software sucks you pc will also.
  4. Yes i dissabled all options having to to with all fans. One by one
  5. Thank you i couldnt find it. I tried and tried. I swear all amd has it. I am so puzzled by why the fan stops when cool it has to be a setting.
  6. Yes its a 4 pin. I got the heatsink and fan on and still happening but only when its cold. Never goes over 25 C. I tried in the bios to dissable and setting that would controll a fan still doing it. Now i guess i need to find a jumper on the motherboard to see if i can dissable cool and quiet through that.
  7. Still waiting for the heatsink and fan i cant get to the pc cause i have been snowed in for the last 2 days
  8. I ordered the one that was suggested. I allways order everything from newegg why? cause newegg rocks!!!
  9. funny thing is that the cpu isnt even hot when it shuts off. And yes i wuld think it would be a hdd issue but i can see the fan stopping and the hard drive is new quiet and runs perfect. Loads everything fast no noise what so ever and never freezes on anything. I even installed a game and played on it for 3 hours then stopped and 15 min later it finnally made the sound. I looked and the fan had stopped and I looked at the speedfan program i was given it had read that it had stopped. I did order a new fan and heatsink a simple one to install had the same type of clips wanted to make sure it was easy.
  10. mainly when it is cold or idol and i am not in the room
  11. not all the time it comes on and off i had to run into the room to catch it
  12. Ok anyone know ware to get just a cpu fan not a heatsink and fan? AM2 socket
  13. Ok now the sound is longer but my guess is because the fan is stopping for longer. I got a poor recording for you guys hope it helps. http://www.filefreak.com/pfiles/34368/sound.wav I am gona order a new fan tonite but am sceptical that is the problem because no noise bearing sound and it keeps coming back on. But cheap thing to try cant hurt
  14. Thanks guys i will try to get a recording of it. Yes now i am using the Icool feature. Thank you for the program am gona install it 2mara. Heat sink and fan are stock you are correct. Will keep you guys updated i think 2mara am gona have time to work on it very busy.
  15. Well ever since i changed that setting it has not stopped not saying that it is fixed jsut keeping you posted. If that seriouslly fixed it i dont know what to think its just to weird. It almsot has to be the fan or the mono or a setting. I mean why would it only do it when cold or at start. Then the fan turn on after u do a few things. No noise and the times at wich it are happening make me almost rule out the fan but i cannot do that because that wouldnt be smart. One thing i do need is a program to read the fan speed while the pc is on without having to get into the bios. any help?
  16. lol mud i mudmanc4 i hear you i think it sounds silly myself. but i gota tell all information i can and what happened after i did what so it can be resolved but hell ya it is silly lol I will try tonite to reset the bios to default. I do not have the pc infront of me at the moment its at my uncles. I got the key but dont got time today most likely 2mara. I am gona try setting that same setting on my mobo see what happens cause it is a gigabyte also.
  17. gigabyte GA-M61P-S3 if looking up info leave out ga found out that helps
  18. well it comes from the mobo for sure 100% there was a setting in the bios for when cpu fan fails alert and thats what it is the alert.
  19. this only happens when the pc and cpu are cold
  20. but if it is stopping only when cold and starting after programs are opened that tells me it is a setting not the fan espcially if there is no noise from fan only mobo am i wrong?
  21. it stops running then the sound comes on. and it is a sound that is a warning from the mobo it was an option in the bios i changed it so sound would go away but i dont like the fan stopping the fan hasnt stopped since.
  22. it stops when the sound occurs i never would touch it while pc is on. It only happens at startup sometimes and while pc is on screen saver
  23. I think there is a way to make it so the fan never stops but having a brain fart. anyone know?
  24. Ok this time i figured it out partially. I dont know why but last time the cpu fan was on this time it was not. Maken me think that it is either a power problem. But most likely not. A fan problem. If that was the case noises wuld be happening. or a mobo problem. My guess is it is a setting someware any help or suggestions?
  25. CPU fan is good runs great and i had the side off one time during the sound so i know its not failing. This is also a steady tone stoping after a few seconds then starting back up. It is very intune with being exacty in timings. As for the power supply i do not have a spare but i got one in a spare pc i may have to put it in there. But before i do i am gona hook my psu tester up to every cord and see the voltages. That was another guess is the psu but in my experience if it is the psu either it wont boot or will cause stuff to freeze such as mouse, keyboard, or causing it to reboot never had a psu make a code sound and the whole system be fine. Also when the code is going off i check all system components and they seem to be fine and running great this is why i am so puzzled
