A buddy of mine called me with a problem with his Win98 or ME box. His power supply blew and he replaced it without a problem, but now when he attempts to boot up, he gets a black screen and two sets of beep error tones. For the life of me I can’t remember what the tones mean or where to find my list of same.
He said he gets a 2 and 8 beeps, then 2 and 1 beeps. Then nothing else. The keyboard is reacting because he can give the three finger salute to restart the process. Thats as far as he can go.
I am trying to do this over the phone, so I really can’t do too much and actually see what’s happening or NOT happening.
Anyone with the error code list?
Bob
