I'm not sure if i'm reading this right (Had a few lagers) but on the website you showed me the BIOS beeps you are getting are RAM related (Under 'Any other beeps'.

If you have more than one stick of ram try boot your computer with only one stick in, or try boot with some RAM that you know that works.

You could also try this thats on the website:

No Post - Jumper settings Verify jumper settings on motherboard Motherboard jumpers for particular model are normally located in section 2 “Hardware setup” of the manual. On motherboards equipped with jumpers to set the FSB speed, verify that the FSB speed is set correctly for your CPU. •Athlon based systems may require jumper setting •CPU FSB 200 = 100MHz on motherboard •CPU FSB 266 = 133MHz on motherboard •CPU FSB 333 = 166MHz on motherboard •CPU FSB 400 = 200MHz on motherboard•P4 based systems do not normally use a jumper to set the FSB speed, the FSB speed will be auto detected on P4 systems. Verify that the CMOS jumper is set correctly. Clear CMOS jumper (normally JBAT1) must be set to “Keep settings” to allow the system to POST If JBAT1 is set to “clear CMOS” position the motherboard will not power on or post •On most MSI motherboards you will set JBAT1 as listed below •JBAT1 pins 1-2 Keep settings •JBAT1 pins 2-3 Clear CMOS settings •Verify the correct setting for your motherboard in manual as the correct setting may vary from model to model -- back to index No Post - Shorting issues Motherboard Grounding to case causing No Post Test the motherboard outside of the case to verify that the motherboard is not shorting to the case and causing a problem •With only the CPU and heat sink, memory, and video card (or onboard video) connected to the motherboard, place the motherboard on a non-conductive surface and retest the motherboard •Check the case mounting standoffs to verify that they are lining up correctly with the mounting holes on the motherboard. -- back to index No Post - Component related issues Eliminate comoponents as possible cause Test system with minimal components installed. •With only CPU w/ heat sink, memory and video connected retest systemVerify that all of the components on the system are in good working order •Test motherboard with known good components •Test components on known good system
