hi all,
I have a problem with an ibm/lenovo Think Center M52
model number 8113 21U.

It used to work just fine until it gave no video signal anymore and I could hear one long beep and then 3 short beeps.
I have taken the 2 memory sticks out, it beeped differently, I put them back and I took out what seemed to be an extra video card - surprise, surprise - it did not beep anymore, I could see the ThinkCentre logo and I was very happy ... for about 5 minutes. It never got to oot, it was complaining about the configuration change, I tried boot in safe mode - it did not work. Itried one more option, it did not work either.

Last time I tried, it just died on me again - I have no video signal and this time it beeps one long one and then TWO short ones.

Anybody any ideea?

Thanks a lot,
kowalsky
