Re: tlug: beeps from motherboards again

[Sean Bennett <sean@example.com>]

...initially I wondered if not have a monitor plugged into the video card
could have been a cause in my case.... but it turned out whether I had the
monitor connected or not, I still got the same 1-3-3 beep pattern.  Its
interesting that you get the same pattern regarding you monitor switch box
setting. I'm curious if our problems are related.  Is your beep pattern 1-3
or 1-3-3?   (this thread would probably look right at home in
alt.birdwatching.calls <g>)
