Hi,
you would usually flash/update the old bios, with the new bios via floppy disk drive, or cd if your motherboard supports it. if you go to the manufacturers web-site-support or downloads. you should be able to get the latest bios for the board. also read any notes on " flashing the bios " if the board won,t boot, you can,t damage it anymore than it already is. nothing to lose everything to gain.
if you have to send the board to be unsoldered/re-soldered very expensive usually.

if this information solves your problem, please rate as Fixya.

Many thanks for using the forums.

Hi,
Do this, first disconnect your memory into motherboard slot and then power on your PC. if you hear repeated beeping means no memory installed, the motherboard work fine. try to insert again your memory. if your memory are two pcs. insert only one memory and then power on again your PC. (only one by one insert memory for testing so you can trace if one of your memory was defective).

Beeps on startup but no video and continues to have long beeps with no video

Check the the cpu, ram and video card are seated properly. If they all are, then the board is defective and will need to be replaced.

On startup the hard drive makes continuous beeping sound and small orange light comes on

Its not Hard Drive that makes beeping sound its your mainboard. Check in Bios (if possible) that HD is recognised properly. Disconnect HD form computer and then start computer without HD to see wheather the problem is still there. If not, connect another HD (preferably not more than 40 GB) and use a new IDE cable if applicable. Some HP PCs record in Bios their original HD serial number preventing replacement of HD. In worst case the HD controller on Mainboard is not working properly or may be defected.

Cannot get the option to enable VGA through using F8 at windows S

Sometimes after changing BIOS settings the computer will not start or will possibly give error messages similar to yours. I have at times had to remove the power source, remove the motherboard battery, and set the motherboard back to factory default settings. You also stated that you installed a new motherboard. That could also be a potential problem. If the computer has never started with the new motherboard, the new board may be defective.

I think this is hardware issue and its issue with your ram. Please remove your current ram and try another ram. And see the results if beeps is still running. So its problem with your motherboard
