I get Video and RAM beep codes mixed up, but I think that's the RAM one. Otherwise it would be video. In either case, it means the system can't find the part.

With Gigabyte GA-8ISXT-FS motherboards (top quality i865PE chipset boards, fully loaded) going for $32 all over the web, I can't find any excuse for PC-Chips, let alone the 848 chipset.
