When I push the power button, it gives one short beep and one long beep. I looked it up and it means their is a "memory issue." I reset the bios using a jumper on the motherboard and it fixed the problem, for a while. A few days later the exact same problem happened. So I reset the bios again and it worked, but only for a while again. When it happened again, I reset the bios and nothing happened. So I pulled all the ram and tried each individual stick in each individual slot resetting the bios each time and it just kept beeping each time. I started to get mad at it so I just put the ram back where it was to begin with, pushed the power button and it booted right up. The next day the same problem happened again, so I went through the whole process again, but nothing happened this time, so I walked away from it for half an hour. When I went back to it, I pushed the power button and it booted right up like nothing was ever wrong. Anyway I was wondering if anyone knows what to do, I am starting to think its the motherboard going haywire.

Run Memtest86 (http://www.memtest.org/).

Hopefully one or both RAM chips fail and then u won't have to question a million other possibilities. Unfortunately RAM isn't dirt cheap anymore.

I would run memtest but I don't have another computer to put the ram in, I did forget to mention that I swapped out the ram with other ram that I know is good (and compatible), but I still get the same beep code.
