what do you mean beep, does it keep repeatedly beeping or what? does it only beep when you touch something?

The continuous beeping in some boards is a memory issue.

There is a fairly complete list of beep codes and what they mean that is elsewhere on this list. I believe it was created by Tedster.
Could be a video graphics card failing, memory failure, or a dozen other things.

Yes, memory or a badly failing hard drive
