Help!  My AT-compatible has recently died.  When I turn it on, it beeps and
that's all.  The BIOS is by Phoenix (or so the label on the ROM indicates)
and the beep pattern is beep beep beeeeep beep.  Does anyone know what this
pattern means?  The machine doesn't get far enough through the boot sequence
to initialize the display card (an EGA which works when I try it in an XT) so
I don't get any PIC's.  I swapped power supplies (the first one seemed to have
only 9V coming out of the 12V supply) but that didn't help.
