    Asus M2R32-MVP Motherboard

    Sata hdd 750gb

    Nvidia Geforce pci-e video card


    Fatal1ty sound card
    1 gig memory


    Basically I install the card and turn on the computer and it makes one long beep and three short beeps (maybe two) The screen does not come on. I take the sound card out and then it comes on. I don't think there is anything that I can disable to change the situation is the card faulty?
