So I just had my DS10 perfectly configured but on its side, and it fell over. Now it just gives me 3 beeps. If it's like other alphas, there are different beep sequences that mean different things and the meanings of some of the more common ones are listed in the manual. What do I do, disassemble the whole thing and reseat the RAM or what? Given what happened, that sounds like a good idea. Also check for connections that have come loose and for any damage. If you have a graphics card fitted but no keyboard or mouse plugged in, this can cause some alphas to beep on startup, but they generally ignore the problem and continue on booting.
