This was posted in another forum, but it is also technical related because of multiple issues, so I will post here as well. I am getting a series of short beeps that will not stop when I boot up. Read below thanks!
Hopefully someone here will know what is going on with my new Sonata case. I am new to the fourms here. Anyway, here goes. I just put together a system yesterday using this sonata case. I have the following installed:
Asus P4P800-Deluxe Mobo
Intel P4 3.0CGHz CPU
1 GB TWINX-LL Corsair P3200 Memory
2 SATA WD 120GB HD
1 ATA Maxtor 30GB HD
ATI Radeon 9600 AIW PRO
Plextor 8X DVD+/- Burner
At first I was able to turn it on fine and all the fans were spinning properly. Power supply speed was around 1400RPM, and CPU fan around 4000RPM. It was not reporting a speed for the case fan (said N/A) in the BIOS. Don't know why I am getting in the low 50C range for CPU temp either. The large 120MM case fan on the back seemed to be spinning very slow (can hardly feel any air when you put your hand near it). I left the computer on overnight because I was using partition magic to format the hard drives and when I got up the case fan had completely stopped. I opened the case up and it was pretty hot inside. The HD were hot to the touch. I also tried running with the case off before I went to sleep and it was still hot. I know it is pretty cramped in there with all the wires coming from the power supply and don't know if the case is overloaded with the 3 HD's but I disconnected, but the fan should not stop completely. I also tried both the fan only and the regular connectors and both did the same thing. The fan will not come on at all now when I boot up the computer. I am also now getting a long series of beeps when I boot up and it will not boot into windows at all. I might have did something wrong during the partitioning of the HD. Does anyone know how to install XP using a SATA RAID 0 setup? XP would not detect the SATA HD's unless they were set in a NON-RAID configuration. This is my first time using SATA in RAID so any installation help will be much appreciated.
