Beepcode 'high/low/high/low' on NF7-S

I was working on something with my pc running ( i know i shouldnt have) and i was only a few feet away from my case and it shutdown. It gave me the high/low beepcode until i unplugged it. I've tested the psu, and taked on the heatsink and reseated it. Whats wrong with my computer?

oooooooooooo.....I had that once..... I cant quite remember what it was though. I think it was the temp warning when the temp got too high. Change the warning temp in the bios and it will stop, I had mine set waaay too low.

Hmm, you probably have a dead board, time to get a new (better) one.

Get a DFI lanparty B, its much better than the NF7-S and easily the best AXP board out right now.

It does absolutely nothing, no fans spinning for a second or anything?

The fans connected to the power supply directly will spin, but if i hook up a fan say to the motherboard nothing happens.

bout time you've posted here....

Fellas, this being related to the other thread i post about starting a PSU on it's own....

We've gone as far as pulling absalutely everything... including the ram.... (and i sure the video card).... with the same result..... now according to the beep code and accross multiple websites....

This is either CPU/Mobo related.... and he's gone as far as too pull the cpu right off.. take a good look at it.. and it doesn't appear to be bad

He has no spare parts to test.... nothing to go with....

I guess the only question would be....

IS there any possible way to test the mobo/cpu for sure... or even the mobo without the cpu?

Damn Award... and there lack of beeps....

As far as I'm aware of, no, not without special (and proprietary) hardware...
Only thing I know of to try is to find any board (known good) that supports his CPU. Knowing the PSU is good, the risk of frying anything is minimal.

Does this motherboard have a fan on the heatsink next to the CPU? My brother-in-law recently sent over one of his AMD boards for me to check out and the problem was that this little fan had gone bad. Just a thought.
