How did you determine it's a timer problem? Did you just flash your BIOS before this happened?
Anyhow, reseat your video and ram, and disconnect everything else. Will it POST?

Flash your BIOS at your own risk.
I looked on pages for beeping bios codes. There was written that the beeping code from a Award Bios like that from me (1-2-1) meens that a timer-block - or something like that - is the problem. But I didn't find anything about what a timer-block is. So that's my problem I hope you can help me.Thank you in advance for your time.
That code is aparently correct for Phoenix (who now own Award) but I don't know that it is correct for Award. Have you tried re-seating or replacing the video card and the memory ?Milfkanne wrote:I looked on pages for beeping bios codes.

AFAIK, if Award BIOS beeps it means video or RAM problem.
