I just upgraded to an EPoX 8RDA+ Motherboard, with an AMD AthlonXP 2800+ processor and a Radeon 9600XT graphics card. But I am getting a couple of problems occuring on and off:
## SOLVED ##
1. After having the PC switched off overnight, when I switch on in the morning, I get no display, and the CPU speaker makes a continuous 2-tone beeping noise. If I switch it off at the mains and then back on again, its fine. Any ideas what this means and how I can stop it happening?</s>

UNSOLVED
2. My DVD Drive and DVDRW Drive are not always being detected by the system (both on BIOS startup, and in WindowsXP). They occasionally get picked up, but its rare, so I am guessing its not a faulty motherboard/socket? I have also tried 4 different IDE cables too. The drives are both on the IDE 2 cable, as IDE 1 seems to have no problems whatsoever. Again, any explanations as to why it wont detect my secondary master/slave drives 99% of the time?
Hope someone can help, please email me at: dionket@aol.com if you have any questions or ideas
