bidnet work

Ugh. So, I finally got a call back from the office about my trouble with logging in (after someone not calling me back for two week). So, I go down and turn the machine on and it's dead.

Dead. Like it beeps, then stops, then beeps. Nothing on the screen. My brother said something about a post beep. Three long ones from what I can tell, but googling online so far hasn't really told me anything except that it's broken and could be a memory or motherboard problem. Or GPU or it's a keyboard beep. Helpful!

Whatever. Maybe I'll make it out of the house tomorrow and drag it in to BidNet for them to fix. I think at this point, I should just be like, "screw this," and give up.

POST is a Power On Self Test that the BIOS does to check hardware as your computer starts up. Each different BIOS manufacturer has a different set of beep codes, which is why you're finding different possible error codes. First you'll need to know which is installed on yours. Then that will help narrow down which beep code you're getting.

Thanks! I did find that when I looked more. But it's the company's machine, so I don't have to care that much :D
