    I am trying to fix a computer for a friend, but I am having tons of trouble. When I turn it on my monitor stays in standby and the onboard l.e.d says C-3 instead of FF (Fully Functional). Does anyone know where to find an explanation for the codes on this motherboard. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank You

    This is a DRAM error. Check your memory type for compatibility. Test the memory to see if it's bad. If using more than one stick take one out to see if it'll boot. Also try reseating the memory.

    The maximum memory that can be used is 1GB (2x512MB).

    Memory type is PC2100 (266MHz) DDR Non-ECC CL2.5 DIMM.

    To test the memory MemTest.
