Yeah, I know .... most of the so-called "computer" stores in this area are staffed with total idiots.
It's an XFX nForce 680i LT SLI mobo. I just found the manual and I'm going to give it a look see. The BIOS is Phoenix-AwardBIOS. I've just dragged out the manual and I'm going to see if it lists the beep sequence.
I did find one site on the net that gives the sequence for most of the BIOS types ... and if I recall, the one for Phoenix said the continuous squeal was a sign of either a bad mobo or a bad cpu. It had better not be the damned cpu ... that thing cost me $1000 ... all by it's little self.
