I understand that your connections are snug, but that beep code means RAM issue. Humor me and swap the RAM in the slots. If that doesn't do it you may want to run Memtest or try other "known good" RAM.

    having the same alarm with the same motherboard, I gave it a spring clean this morning everything was running fine, nowi can't even get into C-mos and its driving e insane with the be do be do be do contunius alarm. ive swtiched its slots it will oly boot with the ram in just one slot, the alarm continues and it still will not let me into C-mos. is there a way to solve this?

    Have you tried both sticks in the one slot? If you have and they both worked, you may have a bad slot. If only one of the sticks work you have a bad stick of RAM that needs replaced.

Packard bell tj65 screen problem

Try connecting a standard PC monitor to the laptop via the VGA port. Do you still get the same problems on the external screen? If so, there is a motherboard fault relating to the Video output. If your laptop uses the NVidia chipset, this is probably the fault as some older laptops did suffer from this.
If you dont get the fault then its probably one of these:
1) Screen issue
2) The Screen cable that allows the video data to go from the motherboard to the screen

Hope this helps

How do I connect the speakers to a packard bell computer

You need a Packard Bell motherboard for this. look on the side of the monitor in the slot, and you should see 2 dark patches (holes). poke the hooks of the speakers inside these holes then pull down. if they are correctly placed, they will not come out if you pull the speakers away from the monitor. Hope this helps! Max

Packard bell utow co20 the computer will stay on for as long as I dont use it, but as soon as I start useing it it will shut down in about 5 mins

First things first: "work" in giving this away has dodged the "responsible disposal" bullet. Drivers for this unit are probably limited to windows 98 or earlier, as the last Packard-Bell was produced in that era. Drivers for sound in particular were Packard-Bell only, and since they aren't around any more unless you can get your hands on the original installation CD you're out of luck to make the existing soundcard work. You do howrever have the option to install a newer soundcard, that should fix that issue. As for the shutting down, make sure the heatsink has good thermal contact with the processor as it sounds like the processor may be overheating. If there's a fan make sure it is running.

You've got a challenge if you want to see it all work, have fun.
