Boot problems

I am running a E4300 @ 3.0ghz. I just recently took down the OC to 1.8ghz and that didn't fix anything. It still does the beeps at the start up (really fast 2 beeps) or 1 beep and the display loads up, but in windows there are no video drivers loaded and ATI catalyst says no ATI device found.

I'm lost for what to do. Nothing is overclocked right now. Everything seems to be functioning fine.

Motherboard is a Gigabyte 965P-DS3 Rev 1.3
Video Card is a Sapphire ATI X1950
Memory is OCZ DDR2 800 2x1gb

Any ideas would be appreciated

this just happened randomly, it happened about a week after I installed my PCI-E wireless network card.

Have you tried uninstalling the driver from device manager and click "scan for new hardware?"

Try re-seating the video card, making sure it's fully bottomed in the slot. Be sure to unplug the PC before doing this. "Random" stuff is often a physical problem.

I did, but it says no ATI card is recognized

obviously it's working or else I would get video on the screen

sometimes it works normal (right now for an example). Although I did still have 2 beeps are start up about 5 times in a row, then it finally booted normally.

Use restore and go back to the day before you installed the wireless PCI-R card.

edit:
Remove the card then restore.
