A while ago I have bought a i5 750, 2x4GB vram and a Gigabyte P55-UD5 as a bundle from MM. The motherboard was sold by the seller stating it has a known fault of sound not working, so he has provided a Asus Xonar DG along with the board so it is not an issue.
I finally got all the exact parts together and managed to build it today, but on boot, I am greeted with long contant beep. So I taken the standard steps of testing using only 1 stick at a time, using the two 4GB sticks, as well as one 4GB stick pulled from a working system, and they all beeps in the same way as following:
For the 4 memory slots from left to right (1 stick at a time):
1st and 3rd: Constant fast rapid beep (the same as the warning when memory not properly sitted or no memory installed)
2nd and 4th: Long constant beep
Both seem to be warning relating to the memory, so a I right to think just the sound of the motherboard is buggered, but the memory controller of the motherboard as well?
