I have just built a pc with a MSI 990FXA mobo, MSI R380 Graphics. when the grapfics card is not attached i get 1 long beep and 2 short ones, when graphics card is in place i get 5 beeps. I have checked and re seated the processor (AMD FX8350) and the memory and graphics card. Is the processor faulty as this suggests?
