i only have 1 meory stick and i took i out and it did the same but when i took it out it went beep ...... beep......beep. and keeps going
Take the side off the computer and remove and reseat the memory, if you have two memory sticks try one at a time,also remove and reseat the Graphics card(if one is fitted)as the second long beep depending on the motherboard indicates a memory or graphics card fault.
If there is no graphics card fitted (card which is seperate to the motherbaord fitted in a brown AGP slot), then you have an onboard graphics problem.
To get around this you will ned to purchase an AGP graphics card and dissable the onboard graphics in the bios (f2 or Del on startup) and in advanced settings set your AGP card as the primary graphics controller

No, there's only one AGP card in the Brown slot, not the white ones.
If you only have one memory stivk then you can't leave it out as you will get constant memory fault beeps.
