The beeps are audible codes from your motherboard letting you know there
is a problem with a hardware component. Look in your motherboard manual
or on the mftr.'s website for the BIOS beep codes.

Advise you look in your M/B manual for the beep codes. All manuals have them
(that I have ever seen).

98% of the time beeps like that on startup are either a ram not seated
problem, a video card not seated problem, often with AGPs on older
systems, or sometimes a monitor not connected.
