I just put in a new XP2500+ into my A7N8X-X and i start it up and it stalls in post and gives me a beep code.

Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep-Beep forever it keeps long beeping me
can anyone help.
 
Yep, looks like the memory according to the list......

Award BIOS Beep Codes

Award BIOS uses beeps of varying duration. A long beep will typically last for 2 seconds while a short beep will last only 1 second. Award BIOS also uses beeps of different frequency to indicate critical errors. If an Award BIOS detects that the CPU is overheating it may play a high pitched repeating beep while the computer is running.

BEEP CODE MEANING POSSIBLE CAUSE

1 Long, 2 Short Video adapter failure Bad video adapter

Repeating (Endless loop) Memory error Bad memory or bad connection

1 Long, 3 Short Video adapter failure Bad video adapter or memory

High freq. beeps (while running) CPU is overheating CPU fan failure

Repeating High, Low beeps CPU failure Bad processor
