well i was being a stoned jackass and forcing a memory stick into a slot, i finally realized it wouldnt go in when i compared a mem. stick that was already in to the new one i was trying to put in. anyway, i did manage to break one of the plastic little clips that hold the memory in place, one on each end, well yea i snapped one of those things off, and i dont know if this is why all of a sudden it doesnt want to work. when i try to turn my comp on, it powers up, but now its just does 3 quick beeps, pauses and does the 3 beeps again and so on and so on. nothing pops up on the monitor at all. the crazy weird part is, when i forced the mem stick in that didnt fit, the comp would power on but still no visual, and it wouldnt do the beeps. i dont know, im sorry if i confused you im baked right now lol. sorry for the long ass post hhm
