    Hi my hp desktop is giving me 3 beep, the fan is not starting
    Hi everyone please please help me, my hp desktop is giving me 3 beeps when I turn it on. The fan is not turning on either when I start it, nothing works just 3 short beeps pause 3 short beeps. I have tried new memory in every slot, 1 at a time, I have tried new hard drive, nothing seems to work. So I'm really hoping some one out there can, thanks in advance
