Beep Code Manual
3 beeps Base 64K RAM failure. There is a problem with the first 64K of system memory.
Yes thank you shayna it was the memorie card problems, that why not show on screen only hear beeping sound
Behind the cpu is a 4 pronged power cable try unplugging it
3 beeps = ram error, possible a ram card busted, check ram cards on another pc whit memtest or another memory tester
Try a cheep video card from your local used computer parts store they're every where, you'll ask for a pci video card.
Here are the beep codes for different manufacturers: http://www.computerhope.com/beep.htm
Emachines=Junk
Buy something else.I have mine around 4 years and nothing but problems after the first 2 weeks.Now it turns on fan runs like crazy and nothing on the screen.Solution,Take hard drive out,throw the tower in the garbage and buy something better.I have not heard one good word about emachines.When I asked my computer guy about emachines he laughed,that said it all right there.
