IT Game CPU Just beeps 4 times and nothing
« on: August 29, 2023, 02:24:30 PM »
IO had this game and and error came up low cpu fan speed. So I ordered the exact same fan and put it in. Went to boot and nothing. Put old fan back in and went to boot and got 4 beeps on cpu then nothing. CPU worked fine before this, not sure what would cause cpu to not boot all the sudden after a fan change. Anybody got any ideas??

Are there any memory RAM cards on the board? Try removing and reseating them.

Thanks! that did work. I don't know why I did not think of that. Now how do you ram clear the machine? I think I must have put in a different card even though it was money rain to begin with. It wants me to do a ram clear.

With the brainbox installed to the left of the CFast card there is a bank of dip switches.  Turn the switch closest to you on.  Basically flip it toward the cFast card.  I cant recall if it is dip 1 or dip 8.
Just know you will need a Clear Stick.  IT calls their "dongles" sticks.  Not very many of those floating out in the wild.

Its a weird looking one. Sorry for the pic quality. Its like an overgrown full size flash drive.  One end is USB.

Nope, same exact device but not the one you need.
It will look like the WRITE0003 but says something to the effect of ALL CLEAR or something close to that.
