Here somewhere!!!
I am still using an old 2006 spec PC.

AMD 4400+ Not overclocked
Asrock 939 dual sata MB
Asus 460GTX 768mb
Geil 3200 DDR ram = 4gb
sweex 650w gold psu
160 gb HD = WD

As I am still building a new PC which is going slow due to car repairs/road tax etc. This is what I am using for now.:(

Anyway, today when I switched it on I got a number of beeps,(I didn't count them sorry.) and it wouldn't boot-up. I then restarted it and it booted-up fine, so I did a full system check/scan and nothing was found or showing-up. The next time I booted it up the display settings were on the lowest settings, I tried to reset them but it wouldn't work so once again I restarted the PC, and now it is working fine:confused::confused:

Anyone have any idea of what might be going on with it.
 
Your psu is absolute garbage. It only has a 25A 12v rail giving a max of 300w and I doubt if it could even deliver that. That could explain the graphics problem. Have you another psu to try.
 
Thanx for helping, and no I don't have another psu to try as they are much older than what I have in and are of lower wattage anyway. The psu is putting out power ok as I have tested it on a meter.

As I was replying to you It rebooted itself and my printer which is switched off started working but the power button is still off. :confused:
