Having troubles with really old pc

Go to solution Solved by WkdPaul,

Tried without the burned RAM slot populated?

Ok so hello everybody. My small brother has really old pc where he plays cs 1.6 :D And that pc broke down, and I don't know why. When i turn it on motherboard beeps, i can't count beeps because beeps never stop. So i thought what if i replace ram, i grabbed ram stick out and i saw that some gold pins were brown, so i assumed they broke down. So i took ram from other pc and replaced them, and it still beeps forever? any ideas? I tried to change psu too gpu too still same thing :D (good thing that I had two pc with ddr1 laying around)

Have you tried cleaning out the slot that the RAM was in? Try reinstalling the video card? 

For gpu i did, i had another one laying around, for RAM slots i never did, and that pc was never cleaned and I never changed cooling pasta on cpu, so you thing that dust is between motherboard and memory?

:DD Funny I just forgot how its named :D But its really old pc probably intel pentium 4 so I don't care too much about it, but it is good, because my small brother doesn't sit around me and watch how i play csgo ;d
