I have the ASUS P2B Motherboard. When booting up I get a long beep sound over
and over again. I checked my memory, AGP card, processor and powr supply all
are working fine on another system. Nothing else plugged into the computer.
Jumpers are correct for the processor. What are the beep codes? What is the
problem I am having? ASUS told me it was the memory module but I checked that
in another computer and even tried different PC 100 modules in different slots
on the board. Help!

Hey
strip your computer down to the basic components make sure that everything
is seated correctly. When there is a bios beep that means there is a major
booting problem and your bios beeps to indicate what the problem. If
memory simm/dimm is working fine on other systems then i could quite
possibly be the jacket slot for the memory. It would have to be the
motherboard.

I have Asus P2B, and have encountered the 'beep' or 'beeps' on boot up
twice.
The first time it was the AGP card, which had slipped out slightly so had to
reseat it again.
The second time it was keyboard related...basically the keyboard had
knackered up, hence my bios threw a fit when it coudn't find one! Put a new
one in and no problem.
These beeps are telling u one of your components isn't working.

I'm 90% sure that it is your AGP-card that is causing the long beeps, try to
fit it more securely or try another AGP-card.
or
To be sure, take out the AGP videocard and try a PCI version.
