Hello,
I moved to a new house and I finaly got the time to mount the PC again, but when I did, it dint boot. I was only able to hear a beep every 6 or 10 seconds.
I tryed removing it and try other graphic card, same thing. I removed all RAM's and tryed again (with the second graphic card), and it worked and the computer booted. But if I try and do this with my 5830, it simply doesnt work... hmmm I have no idea what to do now.
Any ideas?
My 5830 is a powercolor. My second graphic card is a Nvidia 8600 I think. My CPU is a Quad core intel, and the mainboard a gigabyte (52Q-pro I think).
I already had used both graphic cards on the past. and they were (both) ok.

Cheers!

Bad motherboard perhaps, it may be shorting on the case. Take the board out of the case and try powering it up outside of the case with one of the cards. Did you plug the power connectors into the graphics cards?
