    Assuming you have an Award BIOS. 1 Long, 2 Short - Indicates a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to display any additional information. Meaning either the video card is not seated correctly or the monitor cable is not connected.

    Everest can give you all the information about your computer you'll ever need to know.
