A7V133-VM + PCI video = BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP?
Hello.
I've got the above motherboard and am trying to use/test a PCI video card with it. Now aside from that there doesn't seem to be any mechanism that turns the onboard video off other than the detection of an AGP card, there is a problem. Everything seems to work ok, except during the loading of Windows while the splash screen is showing, it makes a loud long beep then three short beeps. This is prohibitively annoying. Why is it doing this? Was this motherboard made without any consideration for PCI video or am I missing something? Thanks for any help. (It does this with any PCI card, not just this one). |

I've got an A7v133 (without the VW) and to switch from AGP to PCI I would have to go into BIOS & choose what I was going to use as the primary video display. I'm sure yours has the same option. |

I've done that, it makes no difference. As so far as I can discern, that Bios option does nothing whatsoever. Could it be a voltage problem? |
