Beep codes vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but what is happening from your description is a POST error. When the computer turns on, the BIOS runs a set of tests to check to make sure everything is correct, and if its not it will start beeping. The beeping you're describing is common with bad RAM, but only the motherboard manufacturer can tell you for sure. And since you bought a Gateway, they're not going to tell you without you paying them.
