-   I have the same description as far as the beeps is concerned. I had 512 RAM and attempted to upgrade to 2GB after cleaning some dust out.

I got the exact issue that you are experiencing:

Starts....shutsdown...few seconds starts up, and 1 short beep, 2 long beeps with nothing shown on the monitor. I believe to be a video card issue, which I am going to test later today.

I know this is totally off the point, but how did you get it open? I'm after getting a d51s and cannot for the life of me open it. Any ideas? As regards the beeping with your RAM install, this always happens when I upgrade the RAM in pcs/laptops. Its a warning message you get from your system telling you that it recognises a change in memory and should say so on your screen. You simply follow the directions on screen and you'll be all set

Remove all the memory, start up, it will beep. shut down, place in one memory and try starting up. IF it still beeps count the beeps short and long and let me know.

Thank you
