Sounds like your board is dead. Did you request a replacement or did you buy another one?


This can be caused by any of the following:
Four beeps for a AMI bios is System timer failure. This issue can be caused by any of the below situations.
-New hardware conflicting with old hardware.
-Bad or failing hardware device.
-Connections not connected or connected properly.
-Recent electrical storm that caused a surge that damaged computer.
-Other hardware issue.

Given that information, I think you may have a hardware conflict. This means that two or more components in your system are not getting along with each other.

Here's what I recommend doing:
1) Disconnect everything from the motherboard except for the front panel, CPU and one stick of RAM. To accomplish this, you should disconnect all USB devices and cables from the board (even to front panel), disconnect all drives from the board, remove the graphics card, and disconnect anything else that I haven't mentioned. Try each RAM stick individually in each slot, never having more than one stick installed at a time.
2a) If you can now enter BIOS setup, please do a Load Optimized Defaults and try reconnecting each device one-at-a-time until it either all works or you figure out which device is not cooperating with the board.
2b) If the system still won't boot (I'm counting BIOS setup as a successful boot), please let me know if the beep code(s) have changed or not.



Possibly, not sure yet.
 
I have done all of that I have a nother board here with broken graphics card slot and it will post with parts listed It not the same kind of board I thank the board is bad and have 1 on the way I will let you know if that works
