I then get 1 long beep followed by 2 short beeps, which indicates a video hardware failure. First time this happened I got so frustrated that I just kicked the computer, and magically it worked. Now when ever it happens I need to turn the computer onto its side and then start it, or else I will get the beep code above. Is there anyway to fix this, and can someone explain how this even works?   | ||

Use your brain This. If you cant figure out that you should reseat your video card, maybe you aren't qualified to own a computer. | ||

Also, check to see if your video card is attached corectly to the motherboard, in some cases the video cards magically move a bit out of the socket and you need to make sure they're attacked properly. | ||

I used to play games with the computer on the floor and the case cover off...for um, ventilation. Or something. After this problem started, I took out my video card to see if there was something wrong, and it was covered with a TON of ramen. I mean coated in it. The stuff had obviously dried and left a layer of salt and who knows what else all over the PCB. Apparently I'd spilled something I was eating the night before while heavily intoxicated. So, protip: Check your video card for ramen. | ||
