I got my gfx card from RMA and it seems that it doesnt work on my mobo, but it works on my friends. We both use PCI-E graphic cards, but when I insert the asus 6600 gt to my mobo and boot, pc speaker beeps 1 long and 3 short which means the gfx card is not fully functional or something. Im waiting for my friend to drop by so I can try his old Ati 850xt, but what could be the reason my RMAd gfx card works on my friend but not on my mobo ?
 
Lack of power, bad BIOS, bad slot (inc. dust in slot). Probably more. Can't really diagnose without trying a different card in the same motherboard.
 
I had the mobo sent to RMA and they said it was working properly so I suppose I should check out my PSU next.
 
More news


and LL stands for ?
[17:08:47] <SlashLife> Low Level maybe?
[17:09:02] <SlashLife> As in "I know what value it really is, but it's just too damn low"?

Busted psu perhaps ?
oh yeah, the psu tester beeps and blinks the LL
