Check your motherboards manual, it will tell you what the 4 beeps indicate, if you don't have a manual then there should be one for your motherboard on Gigabytes website.

I would reseat all connections
Reseat RAM modules and graphics card. Also try with just one Module (if you have more than one).
Take CMOS battery out for atleast 10 minutes.

take out 1 memory module that should get it to post change the memory setting from un-ganged to ganged in mobo intelligent tweaker turn the unit off put other memory module back in should work fine after
