Hi all
I built a new rig about 3 days ago and it seems to be having problems.
When I was playing CoD4 the screen went a grey/black colour and the sound stopped. I had to press the restart button and when it booted back up the screen was still grey/black and showing nothing. I then heard 1 long beeeeep followed by 3 short beeps.
I restarted for the 2nd time and it booted up OK. I was also able to play CoD4 again with no problems.
Since then I have run IBT 3 times and it passed fine. I also ran memtest86 for two hours and it passed OK. I also ran Prime95 all last night (6 hours) and it had no errors.
CPU temps never exceed ~46C under full load.
GPU temps can hit 78C when gaming.
I thought all was OK until I just tried the Crysis demo. About 5 mins into the demo the exact same thing happened - screen went grey/black with no sound and nothing on screen.
I restarted and the screen was still grey/black and it made the same error beeps (1 long followed by 3 short).
I now can't get into the BIOS or anything, the screen is just black and I keep getting those error beeps.
My PC specs;
Intel C2D E8400 @ stock
Asus P5Q Pro
OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) PC2-8500C5 Platinum series
EVGA GTX260-216
Enermax Modu82+ 625W PSU
Western Digital Blue Caviar 640GB
Windows Vista x64
I have looked through the P5Q Pro manual and I can't find what that error code means.
Any help would be much appreciated!
