Default [Fixed] computer makes odd beeping sound upon boot

I have switched a few componants around o my new build, and now when I start it, it makes a beeping sound which doesn't (to my knowledge) match any of the beep codes. I'ts a long-ish beep that continues forever in a beeep - pause - beeep fashion The screen doesn't even show anything. I may have incorrectly installed something, but can find anything wrong... frustrating. I have a wma. of the beep uploaded here. Any insight is appreciated.

Welcome to PC HF xavie
Please will you check your Ram Which is a flat rectangular stick in your motherboard.Make sure the clips at each end of it are closed.That may be the problem.
Amd

Also if its not the Ram then can we have your Motherboards serial number or your computer serial number?

Ah... that did the trick!! Thanks a lot! That saved me an hour or two of troubleshooting. Sometimes it's just so easy to overlook the tiniest of things.
