    [98]No display and wailing sound

    I have an old pentium II with a chaintech 6btm motherboard when i start it up I get no display and it makes a wailing sound. Does anyone have an idea of what going on?

    Hi cubs1908, welcome to Virtual Dr

    Check that the CPU fan is running, that sounds like it could be a fan failure alarm.
    Nick.

    If processor is in confirmed working order,
    Test in another verified working mobo,
    The mobo itself may be defective/damaged.
    Cheers.

    The bios beep codes it may be the video card or motherboard. It sounds just like a emergency vehicle

    I hope its just the video card. When it starts up the monitor has a display of no signal.

    Link provided above, has several brands of BIOS beep error codes listed.
    Match to suit.
    Cheers.

    The siren sound can be a CPU overheat warning, but there is a note specifically for the 6BTM here indicating possibly a PSU problem.
