I've got a problem with my old PC - I hope you can tell what it means. When I put power button, all I can hear is bios beeps: 2 short-pause- and 1 short. I made a video: https://youtu.be/m8VlX9ZM7uQ" rel="nofollow - https://youtu.be/m8VlX9ZM7uQ What I've checked: -6 different types of ram in all slots (Patriot PSD512400 512mb PC3200, Infineon 256mb HYS64D32000GU-7-B PC2100, Aeneon 256mb AED560UD00-500C88X PC3200, Micron 256mb mt9vddt3272ag-335c4 PC2700 333mhz - all singly in all slots) -another psu (new Fortron) -2types of hdd type -unmounted dvd drive, -changed thermal paste on the processor, -2 different graphic cards. All changed parts were 100% working in another pc. It's a bit strange that it stopped working because it worked normally for a long time. All capacitors on the motherboard are completly fine and look like new. I can't find anywhere explanation to this beeps.

3 BEEPS is a Ram issues.
If i read your Test correctly you already tried using only one Stick of RAM?
If this is correct and did not fix your problem your Mainboard is propably broken.

 Yes, I tried using only one Stick of these mentioned above RAM. But listen carefully - it's 2 short, pause and 1 short beep. All FAQ's to AMI Bios tells about 3 continuous beeps, so that is strange. What in that case could be broken in that mobo?
