4 beeps indicates a failure of the RTC Real Time Clock IC, or a failure in the first memory bank.
long test you can try to run memtest on the unit and let go for a few (3) passes look for memory errors
short test, remove one stick of ram and test the system. record results. Swap stick of memory and attempt boot. record results.
was one stick good and the other not? remove the not stick and look for a replacement.
