asus a7v8x-x post beeps

Comment:

i have just recently built a pc using asus' a7v8x-x motherboard,amd xp2200,256mb ddr333,gforce 4mx440 vidoe card, and every time i start up the machine i get a long repeating beep.i have been told that this is because the motherboard cant read the memory, but i have swapped it out for another stick of 256mb ddr333 and i still get this beep. if anyone has a solution at all any help would be greatly appreciated.
