I just put my older gameing comeputer (incase I get the urge to whip out some of my older games and play) in a new case. And now when I try to power the thing on it beeps for times and shuts off. I've got a Soyo Sy-K7vta with the VIA chipset....I can't find out what the four beeps mean. Even on their own web site they don't have it listed. Oh, and No video either....

Well, shouldn't take too much effort to just reseat everything right? Was it working before or has it been not working since you transferred it?
