I started the computer with just Ram and CPU, no drives, no cards, nothing, still the same problem, weird long low pitched beeping/humming like always. The computer Wwent through the steps, got to where windows starts obviously got the Disk Fail error b/c no HD was connected.
Ok got into Bios...
Nope not the problem, already switched the HD. Still the same problem. I am lost here. when the beeping is happening the the lights by the PCI cards are red.???
Anymore Ideas

Ok on the capacitors, no leaks no bulge. Reseated ram, CPU fan runs. no fan for the video card. It has onboard sound and video. I have no idea what the problem is, my new problem, the bios has a password on them no idea what it is, I will have to ask my girlfriend if she knows, but I doubt she...
The mobo is a MSI 2000, onboard sound, and video. The problem arose after starting the computer up after a few weeks of sitting around. The only thing that was changed in the computer while it sat was a CDRW drive was taken out, I put that back in and it still hangs.
Thanks Josh
