CommonRider Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Ok, every couple of days my computer will slow down dramatically and ill hear one like beep that lasts until i restart my computer. Once i restart its fine for a few days. Its not a heat or fan issue. Is this the hard drive? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deaf_girl Posted February 7, 2006 Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 I'm not an expert on beeps and all, but I'd say it's a RAM problem. Make sure all the sticks of RAM are seated properly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CommonRider Posted February 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 have you been checkin the temps while it's doing this. Mine screams at me when i goes over the limit I set.Yeah, the temps never change. I think ill just take everything out except the mobo, use compressed air and clean everything out and put everything back in place. It couldnt be a vid card could it? Because the screen never flickers or anyhting, comp just slows way down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Might blow some dust into one of the slots and not see it where a card plugs in and really drive you nuts figuring that out... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CommonRider Posted February 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I took out my ram, brushed the dust out of the slots and popped them back in. I guess we will see if this works or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTerrorist_75 Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 It could also be the video card. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
