I unplugged and unscrewed everything from case
performed my little casemod and mounted it in as few times before
The only thing I did this time for firs time was changin my memory modules in slots
I pressed power button and it worked good as it should
so 1long 3short beeps aren´t keyboard controller error but vga/ram problem
I will test and send something new if problems persisit

Jc, remember near the start of this thread i had near enough the same prob as you, just a little update.
After being prob free for abt 4 months now, all of a sudden yesterday after rebooting comp the monitor stayed on standby again (older monitor worked), unplugged and left for 10 mins then it was ok.
As for if its a mobo issue, well i just upgraded that aswell with a full new installation, but it still does it.
I've kinda got used to it happening and it does it quite rarely now anyway, how frequently does it affect you?

If it has started doing that since you changed the vga cooler, it sounds like it relates to that, you didnt drop your gfx card by chance or did you do something else bad to it? My gfx run x4 pci-e, the chipset govern's that, but it is in the x16 slot! I would start praying to the gfx lord!

2 Ace80 3 maybe 5 times
not only after changing gpu cooler but after casemodding (I had to remove everything from case and then install it in)
reseating ram helped thist time
no other ideas or solutions :(
maybe you will find out something new

seems to be solved
it was probably bad contact in pc-e slot
I unscrewed back shield of card and insterted
it worked as it should
so I think it is problem of my cheap case
