Reseating the keyboard connector did NOT "Flex" my mobo at all as I only
pushed it slightly and having built my own system I can attest that
everything in it is too well seated to be moved that easily. Also, I
reseated the vid card securely twice before finding the keyboard issue. I
was stating that not all bios use the exact same beep codes. It would seem
that from my experience that Awards 1 long and 3 short beep code is not for
video problems. I do thank everyone for their input and suggestions.
