tring to configure my new cmputer nee to know what it means when you here continous beeps during boot process
 
Most common cause of continuous beeps is either a key stuck on the keyboard, mouse plugged into keyboard port, or keyboard not properly plugged in.

Hope this helps CitrixEngineer@yahoo.co.uk
 
does the system boot all the way into your os?
if not try reseating your ram and your cards.
a partialy seated pci card can cause an error beep on boot.

knoweldge is power, spread the power
 
That all depends on which bios your motherboard has. In most cases, if its continous short beeping, then its CPU related, either its not seatd right or its overheating.
If its long continous beeping, then its not detecting your memory. Gotta learn to walk before you can run
 
I've had the same problem when my graphics card seemed to be broken.
