I am putting together a 1.8 MHz celeron, ECS P4VXASD2+ motherboard, DDR
256Meg PC2100, GigaByte AG32S AGP video card.  So far all I have installed
are these parts.  The fans spin and the power light comes on, but no
display.  All I get are beeps.  First one, then 8, then 2, then 1.  The
board has AMIbios.  I did a search on the codes and thought that they were
saying something about memory or video card.  I changed the position of the
memory, and reseated the video card. I also rechecked jumpers and looked for
possible shorts mounting the MB.  All parts are new, but looks like one at
least is bad.  Does anyone have any ideas on how to narrow it down(I might
be able to  find a machine to check memory, but don't know about the video
card, since it is AGP), or does anyone know what the beeps are telling me?
Replies off list are fine......just need to solve this problem.  THX
