I put together a p4 system with 512 memory with 2.0A Ghz processor. For whatever reason the system starts to beep once every 20-30 min. The processor runs at 39 degrees and I never get any error messages. I've flashed the bios and updated all drivers. I've had to unplug the system speaker for some peace and quiet..

The specs:

P4 2.0A Ghz, 512 ddr
MSI 845E Max2l-R MB
Lg 32X burner
Lg 16x dvd player
Windows XP Pro

First check if the device is put down correctly and tightly, if so u might have to go into the windows setup by pressing F2 and check the bios because when u flash it the memory sometimes earases. If that's not the problem u should check if the memory device even works. If u cant even see the screen it might just be a video situation.

In BIOS settings, locate the PC Health section.
(sometimes part of power managment)
Check if all of your fans are reporting correct fan speed.

If one or more fans are not reporting the correct speed, either replace the fan, or disable the fan speed monitoring for that fan.

Also, check that the CPU core voltage is within proper limits. If the core voltage is low or high, your easiest option is to replace the motherboard.
