Completed new computer, but getting an error beep.

[catattack]

Ok well the computer I just built for my Realator is finished, but when I turn the computer on, the monitor doesnt flicker or turn on and all the computer does is make Long single beeps. For Example. Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.... Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.... I read up on that and I guess it says its some "memory problem"? and all I have to really do was change the memory to a different slot. Well I did that, and then took memory out of both my working computers to see if that changed anything but it still made the same beep! Whats going on?!!

Well any comments are great! Thanks guys!

Some system info might help...

could be a faultl dimm slot on the board....but yeah some system info would help

[the insaan]

definatley memory fault, continous beeping after 1 second pause might be a compatibility issue or just a faulty stick of ram

I would go with the others but had similar beeps before and it turned out to be the graphics card not seated correctly.

What is the system spec?

[yamangman]

A quick series of beeps followed by a pause is normally a graphics card issue. I would say RAM also, either a faulty module or socket.

Sorry about the system specs, she just gave me the supplies and they are so generic thers no product name or anything I tryed putting 2 different types of memory into the slots but still same thing.

Well I just noticed there is a BIG scratch on the mobo between the cpu and the memory slots. Would this cause anything?

[yamangman]

Well yes, if it's a scratch you can surely ascertain whether it has caused any damage to the PCB, solder or anything? Take it back and point it out or RMA it or whatever.
