Foxconn Renaissance, 2 short, 8 less short beeps @ POST?

[aaron7]

Older gaming build we built came back today with this beeping issue.

Running 3x 2gb sticks.

System has been running for 3 years now without issue.

PC was not dusty inside and was cooling fine.

When turned on the PC gives two quick beeps followed by 8 slower (but not long) beeps.

If I insert NO memory the system gives the standard long beeping error.

I've tried one stick, two sticks, or all three sticks with no change.

I have tried other (known good) sticks of RAM with the same issue.

Only other card is the video card which tests OK in another system.

Any ideas? I can't find anything on this motherboard for beep codes!

Well hard to find I found a generic website that says it would be parity and write to video mem issues :/ have another video card to try in there?

I tried the card in another system but didn't try a different one in there for some reason. I'll give that a shot tomorrow!
