So my computer has been refusing to boot from time to time. When it does so, it will beep as follows: * Long * *Short,Short* and no video will appear on monitor.
To alleviate it, I would simply shut the PC off then remove the CMOS battery and replace it and boot up. Now, regardless of what I remove it will not post.
I've tried everything, sound card, RAM, video, HDD and all drives. I've even tried booting without the CMOS battery and get the same result; no post and no video followed by * Long * *Short-Short*.
Various post codes are: 2C, 49, 4E, 7F and several others that pulse on the display too quick to read.
Any suggestions ? Has my CMOS battery port fried or something from too many battery removals?
