take out memory and put it back in and try it then; you may not be getting video because of you memory

If you have another system with an AGP slot you could go and try your graphics card in that.

!!!UPGRADE !!!!

Even when take off the ram and cpu does't beep

Your processor is interesting;

Athlon XP-M is a laptop CPU. Do you have an older socket A cpu that you can put in and try? Perhaps your mainboard doesn't recognize the CPU and therefore cannot run, even though they are both socket a

call the manufacturer or just replace it with a new motherboard.

socket a is pretty rare these days, however.
