Default 3 beeps, no display

Hi I was trying to connect my computer up to my TV without success, when I put the monitor back in when I booted I got 3 beeps and the light stays orange on monitor. I changed the video card with an older one I had and this works fine, so is this card fried or can it be fixed?

Hello Solid_Dean, and welcome to PHF.

3 Beeps means RAM failure with AMI BIOS. Make sure your memory hasn't come loose.
