ok so my problem before was the comp turning off and restarting just cycling back and forth. so eventually i took it down to my moms work to their computer guy ( they are all lousy by the way ) he said it was the motherboard. i got a new motherboard this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128358&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-Motherboards+-+Intel-_-GIGABYTE-_-13128358
and now i get the short continuous beeps ( power error ) then i would shut it off and try again and it works, try later on and error so its random, i tryed single everything out. can the memory cause power error? i out one stick in and it worked then added the other ones one at a time with the working one in there the other 3 got a power error. any input would be appreciated thanks.
