i'm building my first computer and i've run into a few problems. When i start the computer up it beeps like normal then right after the beep, it beeps one really short time. I there is a beep code but i'm not sure what it means and i'm tired of searching on a modem. Also the keyboard lights up twice(once for the normal beep and the other for the second short beep). But when i start up, the computer finds all my drives, but stops after listing the PCI devices. Occasionaly it will ask for a system disk. It will take a floppy boot disk but won't read a cd(like a windows install). Other than the beeps it gives no other error message. Oh it is a ASUS A7V8X-X mobo. I think it could be a short but i'm not sure if it is or how to find out.
