If you still have your motherboard manual, look under beep codes and look for 4 beeps, and it will tell you what is wrong. If you don't have your manual anymore, you have to search on google for beep codes for your specific motherboard. Every computer has a different set of beep codes, so you have to find your specific ones to find out what is wrong. -Jesse
