how many beeps are there if u r getting one long beep then either the ram is gone or the ram is not seated properly

3 short beeps 64k Ram failure.So it is to be a memory error.Try to seat your ram properly ,and check in your both (generally 2 slots)slots.
Have u checked anothe working Ram in your PC or your Ram at any other PC.
