that's the manual for the system model you've provided in your OP. scroll down to page 123, it lists all the beep codes and what they mean there. 

Oh thank you for the help, I have diagnosed the problem and fixed it, thank you 

Hey guys

I had an old Intel CPU laying about and I thought I should put it into my pc and it should be faster as it has hyper threading and is at 3ghz

But anyway I went to turn it on and I get this error code beeping noise I tried to examine it carefully but I can't find out what it is.

The PC is a Dell optiplex 170l.

I have attached a video below so you guys can hear it too.

Thanks in advance:)

Oh the Video link, ok I get you

It makes 6 beeps, some beeps shorter than others

I just re-seated the CPU and it still does the beeps
