Need help, PC beeps 5 times

So, I've just built my first PC (gaming) the GPU and SSD got delayed so I decided to build the PC now and just add them in later (I have an HDD) I put everything together and did some cable management. But when I turn it on nothing appears on my monitor and the speaker that hooks up to the mother board beeps 5 times. I've tried: changing ram slot, taking CPU out of socket and putting it back in (without changing the thermal paste) and checked the cables. Specs: Asrock a320m pro4 motherboard, amd ryzen 3 1200 @ 3.1ghz, 1tb seagate barracuda HDD @ 7200rpm, seasonic M12II Bronze 520W ATX12V, and a MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 2GB and a 128gb Sandisk plus SSD. Last two things haven't arrived yet. First time using this website/forum, hope it works. Thank you in advance.

Ryzen APU's are not out yet which are what would use the motherbds video ports.
I'm afraid you'll have to wait until the GPU comes in to test further.

Ok igot the GPU and I got to the uefi and there's no beeping anymore. However, I downloaded windows 10 iso and when I try to boot into windows I get a blue screen which says: Error: Your Pc/Device has to be repaired system32 not found error code oxc000255. I don't think it's a bad download since I've redownloaded it twice.

Perhaps you are initially setting the boot drive to the windows installer? I've seen this cause similar issue.
I always begin with only the boot drive installed onto the lowerest numbered sata port (usually sata 0) with the bios set to boot from it.
During post you will be presented with the option to Press an f-key to select a boot drive. This is where you select the windows installer media (dvd or usb drive)
Once windows & all your motherbd's drivers' (from the manufacturers website) have been installed and you verified that it boots successfully, you can add the harddrive in. I would also proceed to create an image of the boot drive in this state. You'll be able to restore this image ina few minutes and be back up and running very quickly with all your drivers intact. Macrioum Reflect Free is very good for this and it's Free

bro i got the same problem?i got galax 1050 2gb OC and ryzen 1200 do i need to change my GPU?

No, The 1200 is not an APU which means that it dos not have a built in graphics card so therefor you connect the display to the ports on the GPU, not the motherbd.

Since this is not your thread, this one will be closed. If you have issue's, please create a new thread for yourself and describe the issue along with your systems specifications (make & model#'s of the various parts). Thank you.
