LOL...... that annoying beeping sound is there for a reason .......( it is there to indicate that there is a problem of some type) Are you absolutely certain you are using the correct ram...... ( theres a very good chance you arent ......) Check your mobo manual to find out exactly what type of ram it requires.
What type of ram are you trying to install ........ just saying "512 MB PNY ram card" isnt good enough.
provide more information please .

What was your first ram problem ?

Yeah, I rushed though that post. More info:

Ram:
Size: 512 MB
Brand: PNY

Other stuff it says:
PC3200 Only
DDR400

My first problem was with another ram card (I gave it to my BROTHER and it WORKED) I installed it and my PC would not turn on.

Any other info? Computer specs?
Compuer make/model, or motherboard make/model if home built. Go to www.crucial.com to see what that system nneeds and compare with what you bought.

FYI, Crucial OFFERS guaranteed compatibility, lifetime warranty, reasonable prices and promp shipping.

Either your RAM is not correctly seated, is not the right type, or the motherboard may have restrictions on max amount, etc. There is more to it that just PC3200. Ranman...... How about giving us the make and model of your motherboard ...... That will SIMPLIFY things ......
