    I get the same beep code no matter what I do.
    Things I've done while clearing CMOS each time
    Pulled the Video Card
    Switched Video card
    Switched PCI slots for Video cards
    Switched Monitors
    Pulled RAM
    Replaced CMOS Battery which tested dead
    Pulled the power on all drives

    I'm thinking power supply but I don't have one to swap.

    Any Ideas

    Thanks

    It depends on your BIOS what the beep codes mean but 1 long and 2 short is usually a video card failure.
