You can hear boot beeps?

So I need 2 things
1. Count how many times it beeps during boot.
2. Check which BIOS your MOBO is using, it usally tells you on the MOBO box.

If it does not beep that means that the MOBO does not boot BIOS.
Also try to plug in the screen into the MOBO/GPU

If it does not beep, the problem can be:
processor, ram or some of bios shit.
Also, unplug your gpu and use your onboard video.
Things I can think of:
-Check your BIOS
-Check your video cable (faulty?)
-Check the beeps (>>52799 has a good link)
-Check the processor
