my mb beeps every second or so to no end when i try to boot... nothing ever shows on the screen.
here's some background... yesterday i came home to find that the red light on my optical mouse was not on... so i unplugged it from the usb port and immediately i heard a fan or something turn on really loudly. this went on for 5 minutes or so.... anyways i plugged the mouse back in and nothing happened, except that the red light would turn on for a split second and then die. so i rebooted... and things worked fine. so i left it for a while and when i came back it was back to the state i had found it (dead red light) but this time i could not reboot it.. this is when it started with the repeated beeping.
what do you guys think? power supply issue maybe?
the mb is an asus a7m266... i would look at the manual to see what the beeps mean, but the asus.tw site seems to be down...
thanks!
