Hello all!

I went to start up my PC yesterday, and when it did, I got one long beep followed by 2 short beeps, and it won't bring up the bios. I searched online and saw that the above beep code means there's some sort of problem with the video card. I cleaned the card, took it out and put it back in, still got the same beep code. I tried using another video card, but still received the same beep code. Is it possible the PCI-e slot is bad?

System specs:

cpu: Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6700 2.67GHz
memory.: DDR2-800 2GB/64x8
hard drive.: 250GB Serial ATA 7200 RPM16MB cache
video card.: ATI Radeon X1950GT 256MB 2DVI/HDCP
Microsoft Windows XP
motherboard: Abit IB9 Core 2 Duo

Thank you!
