This sounds like some kinda problem with the boot sequence ...if it's a windows xp machine, try booting with repeated press of F8 to get to the boot selection screen and select "boot last known stable configuration" and if that works, you are good to go...

I mean, have you already tried exhaustive web searches to turn up the beep codes for Acers? Have you tried pulling all the USB devices/cards/RAM? You may prefer to take it to a local computer shop (e.g. Staples). On Sat, Nov 22, 2008 at 8:47 AM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a (hardware) problem.?
