One Long beep followed by 3 short beeps.

Hi,

Ive been getting random blue screens, mostly in games, where apon reboot I get 1 long beep followed by 3 short ones.
Quick look up on google shows this may either be a video card problem or a memory problem.

Just wondering which it is likely to be and where I should start to rectify this?

E2140 oc @ 3120MHZ (Speedstep is on, to I may turn this off and see if it helps)
P5K mainboard
2GB DDR2, Crucial 5300

Only been cropping up the past month or so.

What's your gfx and psu?

What blue screens are you getting.
It might be worth running at stock and see what happens, if your still getting blue screens try mem test and check your memory is ok.

Orthos barely last 10 minutes at the most.
Fatal error, round 0.5 instead of less than 0.4.
Consult stress.txt.

What stress.txt?

Used the windows memory diagnostic tool and it didnt find any errors.
