[SOLVED] Asus Prime B450M-A making unclear speaker errors?

I'm attempting to build a new computer, and it's honestly been a struggle for me. It wasn't booting at all, and so I followed the general no-boot instructions that folks have been directed to on this site, which seems to have made progress, as now my speaker beeps when I start it up. I'm still getting no signal, but the speaker is providing two error messages now. The trouble is, I'm not sure what they're saying.

The first is one long beep followed by three short ones. According to the Asus website, this means that there's an issue with the graphics card, which is strange to me, since the graphics card was removed as part of a much earlier troubleshooting step (in attempt to resolve the 'no signal' issue, I hoped connecting with the motherboard directly with no other video output would help).

The second one is a long beep followed by four short beeps, then a pause, then a fifth short beep. I have no idea what this means, as Asus support did not list it.

Any suggestions? This build process has been driving me absolutely insane. I don't know what to do, and I just want it to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Well, I contacted Asus customer support and they told me that the issue was my processor (AMD Ryzen 5 2600) not being compatible without a graphics card, so I installed it and we're all good to go. Since I can't delete my own thread, I'd figure I'd at least share that for anyone else in my shoes.
