make sure that the hsf is put on correctly, I have had the same problem b4, make sure nothing is obstructing your processor, have had that happen b4 too (such as a thermal probe etc.) maybe try reseating your CPU and Ram and see if that helps. Good luck

Does it beep more than once?

ye, if it beeps more than once u have a problem. 1 short beep is all u need.

it beeps like crazy, and the LEDs that are on the RAM go all the way to the top

Ok, can you tell us how many times it beeps and the order and if they are long or short? If it goes off like an alarm it is most likely something to do with your CPU..

or the ram if the lights on it go on....
