It just depends on teh motherboard. Some will not beep, some will. YOu can never assume just because one computer part does something that they all do. No 2 boards are the same, even with the same model number.
The whole thing. Tell them you have done some testing, and tell them exactly what you have done so far. The shop diagnoses computers all day long, so they will be able to find it a lot easier than you could.
I don't see them allowing me to be honest. I purchased all the items at the end of November and used all of it. I think it would cause more trouble to be honest.
I might aswell just drop it in a PC repair shop and let them deal with it. I just hope they won't just say that the motherboard is knackered without proper testing it and charging me a load for something I sort of knew already.
I guess I'll just ask a PC store to test my PSU and RAM. Although it seems to me that the RAM is guaranteed dead. Could the RAM have destroyed the board ?
