My son's PC has an A7S333 Mb with aChaintech g-force4 mx video card, 2gh AMD
Cpu (new), new Crucial ram, IBM 40 g 7200 Deskstar HD. All the other boards
have been removed. This PC worked for over a year then it started to crash.
I reloaded XP pro, which took 14 hrs for some reason, and it ran real slow,
the cpu useage was at 100% and I could not get it less than 50-60% by
shutting down processes. I reformatted again, trying to clear the Boot
sector in case it was a virus. Then XP pro would not finish loading. Now
when I try to boot it all I get is the continuous beeps. I tried resetting
the CMOS, nothing.

Any ideas?

TIA, Tom
