shirbb,

Slow down.  We can appreciate one that loves a challenge, but please one at a time.  

The 1 long beep should give you an indication....
Check your power supply against your draw......what is the wattage of the PS?

Are all of the hardware of the same "generation"?  In other words, are you using an older monitor/newer monitor with an older video card?

Is this the same machine as the previous post?

its a AtI XP300 yes all same generation.psu is 130 watts 
all the hardware iv tested on another socket 748 and it works
when i heard the single long beep i thought def ram .but then i put in ram that works on another pc  and no luck

Get a bigger PS!

OK, so you tested in another working machine, so build it using that machine, and use thast machines parts to make the onther one work....see!

Take out the part that you were using in the production and see if it fails in the older board.  If the problem moves, then it is the component!

Take your time, and it is the simplest of stuff that will hang you!
 
Let Us KNOW!
