Powered off normaly, next day powers up and just beeps for 2 seconds then all the num, caps etc lock lights flash and it reboots.
I have so far...
1. Reseated ram, cleaned ran slots with iso alc, substituted with known working ram.
2. Ditto above with the gfx card [tested and working in another machine]
3. New CMos battery.
4. Tried crisis recovery with floppy [power on while holding ctrl & home] but unsure if it completed [left it for 10 mins]
5. Swapped out the Core 2 Duo for several other single core's
6. Fresh application of AS5 to both hotspots.
I feel its a crashed bios but cant be sure it recovers correctly as it doesnt reboot on its own.
It was running on the AW 2.06 bios before the bsod/beep. Could the bios reflash failure be down to version numbers?
Edit, this youtube clip shows the exact problem another person is suffering
