I recently tried putting a comp together and i'm positive all the connections are right, the cpu is seated right and the video card looks perfect and fits perfect but i get CONTINOUS beeps from the motherboard when i turn it on, semi-long beeps with a 3 second pause before it beeps again. One source i found said for this motherboard that is a ram error but i wanna be sure, anyon got a answer?

I'm having the same problem - I get intermittent 2-second beeps (longer than the usual startup beep), but my problem is a bit more in-depth.
I recently installed Kubuntu on my external hard-drive, but because I had to boot through the external drive (with GRUB), it took forever and a day to boot - everything had to transfer through USB to get to the processor.
Now, to remedy this, I tried to resize my partitions and move my Linux install to my normal hard drive. However, when I resized the partitions, it wiped all of the external drive, and thus, GRUB's master boot record. So, for about three days, when I turned it on, I'd get a quick beep and a GRUB error message - either error 17 or error 21, depending on whether or not I had my Kubuntu boot disc in the drive.
This, however, may not even be related to my problem. All I needed to do was get into the repair console with an XP CD and use the fixmbr command, then I'd be good.
The problem started after I popped open my computer to check what kind of RAM I have. I also gave it a nice thorough dusting with an air canister, because it was pretty terrible in there. I removed my RAM card to check whether it was DDR 300 or 400 (it was 400), then popped it back in with the clamps in place. When I put the cover back on, I got the 2-second startup beep, and no video output. I think it might just be that I jostled the RAM card, but it could be a symptom of a deeper problem. Anyone have suggestions?

need you assistance please, attaché here is the scan copy of my motherboard. The reason why I am writing this is because after I have switch off my computer on Saturday morning everything was fine but the main problem was that my son tried to switch it on because I was not around. What happen is that there was no connection of mouse or the keyboard so when I try to switch it on, on Sunday it didn’t work, so I thought it was a power supply but it wasn’t after checking thoroughly I dismantle it yesterday and try to check where the fault is but still it didn't work? I don't know whether the fault is with the motherboard , because I also change CPU to check whether it didn't affect but the CPU works from the other motherboard which is the INTEL 478 CPU.

Got a warning beep from the PC speaker(continuous), so I shut down & cleaned
all the dust from inside the case using canned air & a vacuum
cleaner w/brush. Was playing call of duty 4 when the beep occurred.
Did not notice any change in performance. PC would not boot after
cleanup. Booted ok next day, but hung up after a bit. Reset hung
after the windows screen with the precessing bar at the bottom. Shut
it down & it would not boot again for an hour. I did notice the
heat sink over the NVidia chipset was too hot to touch. I am thinking
it is time for a new mobo & cpu
