Hello People,
will give the vaste wealth of knowledge on the internet a try....
I am using the D815EEA2 motherboard with a 800 celeron pIII processor. i got a new, as far as i know, 1GB pIII processor, from a friend and put it onto the motherboard. it conked out immediately. 3 beeps and 2 beeps. i then put the celeron into the motherboard and no response but the same 3 and 2 beeps. i tried to fix it clearing the cmos, changing the jumper setting, but it did not work and i am stuck with a processor and motherboard that does not work....or do they...any ideas?
Thanking You....PB

Have you had experience installing CPU before? Are you sure you seated it properly and did you install the heatsink/fan properly? Also, did you plug the CPU fan into the mobo??

These should be the beep codes for that board:

Beep Codes The following table describes the beep codes that are used by AMIBIOS: Number of Beeps Description
1 Memory refresh timer error.
2 Parity error
3 Main memory read / write test error.
4 Motherboard timer not operational
5 Processor error
6 Keyboard controller BAT test error.
7 General exception error.
8 Display memory error.
9 ROM checksum error
10 CMOS shutdown register read/write error
11 Cache memory bad

7.1 Troubleshooting BIOS Beep Codes Number of Beeps Troubleshooting Action 1, 2 or 3 Reseat the memory, or replace with known good modules.
4-7, 9-11 Fatal error indicating a serious problem with the system. Consult your system manufacturer. Before declaring the motherboard beyond all hope, eliminate the possibility of interference by a malfunctioning add-in card. Remove all expansion cards cards except the video adapter.
• If the beep codes are generated even when all other expansion cards are absent, the motherboard has a serious problem. Consult your system manufacturer.
• If the beep codes are not generated when all other expansion cards are absent, one of the add-in cards is causing the malfunction. Insert the cards back into the system one at a time until the problem happens again. This will reveal the malfunctioning add-in card.
8 If the system video adapter is an add-in card, replace or reseat the video adapter. If the video adapter is an integrated part of the system board, the board may be faulty.
