All i get when i boot up is a load of beeps about 12 in total and nothing on the display
Make sure your power supply is big enough and you have plugged everything in. Some video cards require power directly from the power supply with a special 4 plug cable. You can get adapters if your power supply doesn't have the right plug.

If it is a Lenova 3000 J200, it has a PCI Express x16 slot used for a graphics card.
Be Aware of this.
ONE, it looks like it was made around October of 2007.
PCI Express has gone through several versions.
1.PCI-E 1.0 version,
2.PCI-E 1.1 version,
3.and PCI-E 2.0, so far.
PCI-E 1.0 came in 2004. PCI-E 1.1 came out a little later.
PCI-E 2.0 came out in January of 2007. You may, or may not have the PCI Express 2.0 technology used in your computer.
DOESN'T MATTER! A graphics card designed for PCI Express 2.0, will work on a computer that has PCI Express 1.1 You won't get the full capability of the graphics card.
You WON'T notice either!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express
Computer games and 3D programs, can't use the full bandwidth of PCI Express 1.1, yet alone trying to use all of the PCI Express 2.0 bandwidth.
Your concern is your Power Supply.
According to the Specifications your computer either has a 220 WATT power supply, or a 280 WATT power supply.

This isn't enough power to keep a bird flying on a string, much less power a decent graphics card.
Suggestion?
Upgrade your power supply.
What Processor does your computer have, and how much Ram Memory?

Your computer system is getting too hot.
When you don't run videos your computer is running in 2D mode, very little rendering is taking place therefore less heat output.
Then when you want to watch a video the graphics unit has to work hard and therefore produces heat. That heat needs to be effectively removed from the chassis in order for the computer system perform well.
Your computer may need a clean, remove all dust blocking air intake/exhaust areas.
Also go through my guide entitled How to install Graphics Drivers, Nvidia and AMD Radeon!!! as you may need better more efficient drivers for your graphics card.
Consult the manual in this regard for the graphics card model number or name!
The beeping either indicates overheating or low/unstable power to the computer system from the power supply!
Thanking you
