First check is graphics or memory.

Try another graphics card (if you have one). If still same result try 
another memory stick. If you have more than one stick already installed 
first remove one and try to boot, then the other.

The beeps are 'post codes'. If the board does not detect graphics card or 
RAM then it cannot boot. As there is no display it uses sound to tell you 
what is wrong. A search on Google etc will probably reveal the exact meaning 
of your particular code if you know the model of your motherboard.
