[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1399744, member: 46727"] My first question to you is this: Did you buy Apple Care? If so, take it on in and let Apple diagnosis the problem. If no Apple Care, try removing the memory modules one bank at a time, or, since memory is currently inexpensive, replace the modules with new ones. The three beeps indicate a hardware problem, that much we know. It could be memory and then again it could be a logic board problem. If instead of buying and swapping out the modules, you would like to run a comprehensive module checker, download the free MemTest for Mac from [URL="http://osxdaily.com/2011/05/03/memtest-mac-ram-test/"]here[/URL]. The test will stress and check the modules. Let us know the results and we can go from there. [/QUOTE]
