I bid on a graphics card and then read the listing again and noticed it said it was faulty, 1 long beep followed by 2 short beeps.

Anyway I recieved the card this morning and it was the best £12.60 I have ever spent.

£7.60 was the bid that won and £5.00 postage for a ATI Radeon 9700 Pro with No one lives forever 2, Though it is now an old card but still better than my GForce FX 5700LE.

It works great no problem with it at all, So sometimes its a good Idea to go for things that are not supposed to work..lol

Yes I think it was a motherboard problem, Or a Power Supply problem.

Mike the 1 long beep and 2 short is the bios telling you that your graphics card is playing up, Either Graphics Memory problems or Card totally Naffed.
