Ok my bios is Award Bios by Phoenix and I looked it up
and it says that it only beeps when theres a memory
problem or video problem.

/award+error+codes.htm#Post_Codes

The good news is that its not beeping anymore after I did
that kernel thing. Im gonna search some more to see if I
can fix it. If not Im just might reinstall XP. Thanks a
lot for everyones help. I appreciate it.

Damnit! I get to this step

3)Type ren kernel32.dll kernel32.old, and then press
ENTER.

but it doesnt work so I skip on to the other steps and
it
works and then type exit and it keeps on doing the same
problem.

Any suggestions?

I really think this is my problem right here

I tried the safe mode thing and it didnt boot up. Im
going to try the instructions on the website but I lost
my CD. Will it still work if I use one from a Dell
computer that I also have? If not am I just going to
have
to buy a whole new retail OS?

Thank you a lot for the help!

There is probably something wrong with
the "POST "Power
On Self Test" / CMOS
Settings (that's what twp beeps generally mean)

Try Starting in SAFE MODE:
Press F8 repeatedly when the PC is first starting.
When
the screen appears
with boot options, choose SAFE MODE. Press Enter
(twice?) Click "Yes" when
it asks if you want to continue in SAFE MODE.
If it starts:
Click ~~Start--Run--type "msconfig"--Press Enter.
Go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck everything and try
to start your PC. If
it starts ok, try re-enabling one thing at a time,
until
you find what
causes the problem.

If you have the Update stored on your PC you can also
try reinstalling it,
provided you can get to SAFE MODE.

Hope some of that helps,

Well Im running a P4 2.4GHz w/a 60 GB hardrive and
512MB
of RAM. I have a 128mb ATI Radeon 9800Pro Graphics
card,
DVD Rom, and a CDRW. Sorry but I don't know my BIOS.
I
bought the PC from HP. Ok, I uninstalled that update
and
now when I turn on my PC it shows the XP start up
screen
with the green loading bar at the bottom and while
it's
doing this I hear two beeps from my motherboard.
Theyre
low sounding beeps in a sequence of 1-pause-1 and
theyre
not long beeps. Then the screen turns all black and
the
PC restarts. I've already made sure the memory is
secure
in its slot and have made sure every wire is
connected
correctly. If anybody has any sort of info PLEASE
HELP.
Thanks. O yea and if you need more info about the PC
to
help me out please post and I'll try to answer them
as
best I can.
