    beep code error on an old machine.

    I wanted to start up our old dell xps dimension t600r with a p3. But when I do, I get a 3 beeps, and it wont turn on. I know its old, but I wanted to do some hwbot scores on it before we get rid of it. I tried to find info on beep codes, but the dell website doesnt have them anymore(go figure)

    cant give much more info, if you need any, ask and i'll try to figure it out.

    Find the model of the motherboard... motherboards have specific boot codes though three beeps is usually a memory error...
