    ive got a weird situation, for some reason when i boot all is fine but maybe 1 minute into it or 3 minutes into it the system starts making this constant beep noise and then shut's down, i don't believe it is heat, and i think maybe battery but i'm plugged into the wall ( charging at the moment to confirm) but i was wondering maybe somebody knows, i checked the manual and see no post codes, the capslock, num lock and scroll lock all blink as well.

    Perhaps you've done a bad pasting accidentally? If you have time you could always try a repaste and see if that changes anything.

    bios crashed now, turns out to be video card, but my main system bios is dead,does anybody know of the D900F blind flash key combo? i've got a usb with phoenix bios recovery stuff loaded but it does nothing.

    edit: is there a cmos battery, or jumper somewhere on this board i can't seem to see anything.
