What`s wrong? BEEPING???

I built my first computer last week and everything has worked GREAT, BUT when I first turn on the computer it makes TWO short beeps. Can someone PLEASE tell me what this means? Everything has worked fine EXCEPT I bought a BFG 7800GS OC AGP 256mb videocard and it would only worked the first 10 nminutes, so I`m RMA`ing it. Other than that it seems to work fine and I ran it threw PRIME 95 and a couple other cpu programs and it past. ANY IDEAS? Thank You,,,,Paul

Motherboard manufacturers use beep codes to pass info on to the user. The manual should tell you what the beep codes mean, as there are no "universal meanings".

Is it still doing it now that you've removed the bad video card? It could have been warning you of video problems...
