It is an AMI BIOS. I could not get any beeps when not mounted in
mobo. But then there is no speaker to connect to outside the case.
I am pretty convinced it must a faulty one.
There is no way of knowing wihtout a video signal.

A review/spec. of P4C800 is here:

It is supposed to be one the best/fastest mobo's around. Shame I
can't get it to work :-(

Oh well, back to drawing board.
