No post boot and beeping indicating hardware failure

[mdl350]

Hi guys have been looking through this website but can't find an answer to this problem I have a asus a88x gamer motherboard and a amd x4 860k processor all fitted too the board correctly had it apart 4 times now checking it has a new corsair 750watt power supply and new cool master heat sink cooler and fan fan is plugged in correctly. And checked all power connection 8pin in and 24pin correctly.
But on powering up I get one long beep and 4 short which asus say hardWare failure.....
The board lights up fan comes on. But no picture also have tried cos battery removable and board reset with pins bridged but still the same any idea how I can find out if it's motherboard or cpu at fault? With out great expensive. Thanks Mark
