Apparently he has a Packard Bell ixtream 9607 that worked fine when it arrived at this KCU place he seemingly works at but when he got it home it decided it felt like just beeping and so he posted a thread asking for help from his DSi. Glad to hear that random technical issue thread I tried to start really took off. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that's nowhere near enough information to determine anything, but do you at least have some sort of BIOS pop up? |

since the moniter is workingI have no idea, but if I had to guess I'd say you've got a power supply issue. Either that or the CPU fell off or something, which sounds a lot less likely. |

I'm not sure what you mean by "shell" so I'm going to assume you mean the side panel thing you take off to mess around inside the thing and say yeah, you're going to have to do that, obviously. Unless you just didn't plug it in all the way or something. |

Unless you just didn't plug it in all the way or something. Why not? Also it occurs to me I know exactly nothing about this Packard Bell: ixtream 9607 thing, you should probably provide a link if possible. This is probably relevant to my question in some way. |

I cannot remove the pannel Why not? Also it occurs to me I know exactly nothing about this Packard Bell: ixtream 9607 thing, you should probably provide a link if possible. This is probably relevant to my question in some way.
2) I cannot give a link on the DSI |

2) I cannot give a link on the DSIWell, I don't know either, since I just Googled it and all I'm finding is RAM. iXtreme 9607 is RAM, not a computer model name. Figure out the model name, Google "[model name] disassembly instructions," and there should be illustrated disassembly instructions if Packard Bell knows anything about customer service. |

If the computer won't boot up, and just beeps, the beeping should actually be a code of sorts. I'm not sure if it's the same for any computer... But you should get the name of your computer model, and google it's name + beep codes. The way it beeps should tell you why it won't boot up. My guess is a piece inside slided out of place while you moved it home, but anyway... Just try what I mentioned to find the problem.
