We can't tell you what the beeps mean since you provided no info about your system. Did you check your user manual? The info might be in there or it should be available on the manufacturer's web site.

You built a computer, but you don't know what parts you used to build it? There's no name or model on the motherboard?

Like G said we need more info. We need your bios type, if you have an Award Bios see if anything below helps. If your bios is not Award then disregard.

1 long, 2 short:
-Video adapter error
-Either video adapter is bad or is not seated properly. Also, check to ensure the monitor cable is connected properly.

Repeating (endless loop):
-Memory error
-Check for improperly seated or missing memory.

1 long, 3 short:
-No video card or bad video RAM
-Reseat or replace the video card.

High frequency beeps while running:
-Overheated CPU
-Check the CPU fan for proper operation. Check the case for proper air flow.

Repeating High/Low:
-CPU
-Either the CPU is not seated properly or the CPU is damaged. May also be due to excess heat. Check the CPU fan or BIOS settings for proper fan speed.
