Hello,

I have been having an issue with a computer I recently bough off of ibuypower.com. When I start my computer it seems to have a very sporadic issue in where the computer will beep three times when I turn it on and the display will not work through my screen. When I googled my problem it seemed that it was a memory issue, usually meaning that the ram is not seated correctly and needs to be reseated. After hearing this I decided to reseat my ram, which actually worked, but alas it seems like it is only a temporary fix for this problem. Whenever I reseat my ram the computer seems to work fine for a few days but after a certain amount of time, the problem always keeps repeating itself. I was thinking of contacting Ibuypower since this computer was bought less than three months ago, but I figured I would ask around the internet to find a possible solution to this problem. The solutions I attempted but did not permanently fix my issue was:

1) reseating the ram
2) switching where the ram is seated

Both of these solutions seemed to temporarily fix this beep issue with my computer but every time I do this it seems to come back and is pretty consistent in messing with my computer. Another note I feel I should mention is that whenever this happens, if I do not reseat my ram, the computer will usually work after a certain amount of restarts, but it seems to be very random(sometimes it will work after restarting the computer once after it beeps, but other times it takes me as many as 10-15 restarts to get the computer started). Any and all help would be appreciated with this issue and to anyone who reads this I thank you for your time.
