All above is done with all External Devices Dis-Connected but after everything beep keeps on coming.

-Note that when devices were initially connected: Nothing was displayed on Monitor and Light didn't glow in Mouse or Keyboard

It is dependent on the motherboard, but five beeps usually is the CMOS battery!

Hi,

You should replace your CPU battery because it's a clear indication of battery failure.

Well, without the motherboard manufacturer we cannot correctly determine the beep codes!

Take out all of the RAM and boot it up without ANY RAM!  Now how many beeps?

well your MB is an HP.  HP 5 beeps means this:
5 short beeps BIOS recovery successful 

Per:

So it should boot.  If the BIOS is RECOVERING, the CMOS needs changed, loads the bios and reboot!  Have you actually changed the battery?
