So i got the gt210 from inno 3d...

Now when i install it ...... and boot I hear 3 short beeps...... and then a restart and the process continues for 2-3 times and then the computer stays on but no video out..... :( i tried both the vga and dvi output on the vga.... please help... What does three short continuous beep mean?

You're lucky to be getting beeps at all. Check out this page: http://www.computerhope.com/beep.htm

If the problem only happens when you put in the card, make sure it's seated securely and that your PSU is sufficient.

That's indeed very strange. How powerful is your PSU? That's another factor to look into. Aside from that, you can still try testing individual RAM modules in different slots and see if it helps anything.

Edit: If all fails and your PSU is sufficient, it could be a mobo problem.
