PC beeping non stop then doing 3 long beeps and no post, when I shut it down it boots by itself

[Crack_EN]

So I have a computer about 3-4 years old that was my gaming PC before I got my new one, I gave it to my parents just so they have a general stuff computer and today it just randomly started beeping 2 much for me 2 count and then doing 3 long beeps and just keep working but not posting, I looked up on similar problems on the internet and people said it's probably the ram so I replaced it with an identical specs ram stick and tried booting it and still doing the same thing, when I press the power button for like 4 second to hard shut it it just boots up again 

The mobo is a gigabyte GA-H81M-DS2V
The ram specs are ddr3 1600 MHz which is identical to the one I had in it before it started doing this

Could be the ram slots on the MOBO itself, have you tried alternating one at a time with the sticks being plugged in? Just to see if one of your RAM slots isn't working

i have tried both and it did the same thing, i don't think its a ram problem because every time i hard press the power button and shut the system down the system boots by itself after 4 seconds

So, can you get into the BIOS? No right?

How's the TIM on your CPU? CPU might be overheating

No i cant

that is maybe the problem? 3-4 years is time to re apply it again?

Definitely doesn't hurt, try re-seating the CMOS battery as well.

Have you tried clearing your CMOS? If not: connect the two pins on the CMOS header (with something metallic like a knife or a screwdriver):

MAKE SURE TO NOT TOUCH ANY OTHER COMPONENT ON THE BOARD. This has to be done when the board is on (after pressing the power button.)

 

Does your board have a CMOS battery? If so: replace it.

you mean connecting the 2 pins on the cmos header?

It effectively does the same thing but I mean physically removing the battery and placing it back in again

Yes, you can get them at any store that sells batteries (usually)

 

Get a new battery and see if that fixes the problem. Otherwise your cou might be dead, one of the controllers on your board, your ram slots, i really dont know. Without spare parts it is very hard to test for failures in specific components.

As @CreativeGuy2013 said, try a new battery. Also check if, maybe a bit of stupid thing to say, your CPU fan header is plugged into the MOBO. If you have another CPU you can test that as well, see how you get on mate.
