HELP!I am trying to put together a custom PC but I am getting a 4-5 second beep intermittantly after booting it up for the first time. All the fans run OK as the front boot indicators (in front of the case). I have installed only the Motherboard (Abit IC-G), the CPU (Pentium IV, 3 GHZ) with the heatsink and fan that came with it. Also, the Memory (Kingston 512MB- 2), and the ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card. I plugged in all the required wriring and a monitor. There is no picture on the monitor. The case is an Sonata ATX. Any ideas out there???

Your motherboard manual may have more information on the subject.
