Read the manual that came with the new mobo to find what the beep sequence means.  If you don't have the manual go to the manufacturer's web site to find that out.  The beep sequence will tell you what's wrong.

When I turn the power on and the BIOS boots, after I change the settings to boot from the CD and exit the BIOS, the computer will reboot and try to boot from the CD, it crashes, the power turns off, and the mobo beeps, like beep...beep...beep, a single beep about two or three seconds apart, and keeps doing that until you turn the power supply off. So, what's up? Is my mobo not liking my hard drive, or is it something else entirely?
