Constant long beep = make sure you plugged the power into your 9600 when you switched. Other constant beeps are cannot find usable memory (different than 3 beeps where the first 64kb cannot be found), video card installed but not usable (same as other, different than 3 beeps where there is no card installed) You could also be underpowering your system on the 12vt rail. Regardless of how much power the PSU can provide, it might not have enough juice along the 12vt line. Whats the amp rating on 12vt? |
my PSU states each 12v should have 20a max.
The EVGA rep had me test everything disconnected but one stick of ram, my CPU, my CPU fan, and GTX 470 all at once and it posted beautifully. I sa it almost has tto be a short in the PSU as a blow capacitor is a short. lol
