I pulled out my battery and changed pins, then put everything back,
the A8N-SLI won't get past POST. One long beep and 2 short beeps.
I asked a few days ago why my A8N-SLI beeps, but didn't get responses
so I posted this one.
Maybe that is the beep pattern for a bad video card ? I tried
checking some Asus user manuals, but the table of beep codes is
missing for that motherboard series.

Power off the computer and unplug it. Before touching the motherboard,
ground yourself to the computer case. Now:
1) Check the paddle card. Remove the paddlecard carefully from its
connector, then plug it back in again. If it was making bad connections,
that may help it.
2) Power off again. This time, change the paddle card from the "non-sli"
position, to the "sli" position. Test the computer again. What this
does, is place x8 lane wiring on both video card slots.
3) Move the video card from its current slot, to the other slot.
Power up and test again. Any change ?
4) Does the video card have an auxiliary connector on the end of the card ?
Check the power cable.
I hope the video card slot is not blown.
HTH,
Paul
