    Acer beeps on restart

    I guess I should go ahead and replace it. We live in the sticks so I won't get to town until Monday. I'll let you know how it works.

    Angry Acer beeps on restart

    It's back! My computer booted fine this morning but when I restarted, it started the same long beep with no video. I restarted it twice yesterday but it appears that it still has the same old problem. Any suggestions?

    I wonder if you could have developed a motherboard fault, where the battery is being rapidly discharged. I've come across that before. Do you have a multimeter, or could you borrow one? If so, check the battery voltage - it should be close to 3.0 volts.
    Nick.

    At this point, I'd say it is either a motherboard issue or possibly a power supply problem. Motherboard is most likely though.
