why is my computer beeping?

just tried to put a extra gig ramm into my system and when i started her up i got an annoying beeping sound, now the computer turns on and just beeps at me and am not getting any input from the monitor either even after double checking all the connects.

does anyone have any ideas what ive done to her and how to sort it out?

ive taken the new ram out and its still doing it:(

Yea when a computer beeps thats its way of telling you there is a problem. It's kinda like morse code depending on how many beeps there are and the length of them. What the beeps mean exactly though depends on what kinda BIOS you have.

hey guys thanks for the help all sort now:) i did dislogdge the other ram stick, was bricking it fo a sec there!!! haha
