A POST error message will only display on screen if the computer is capable of booting this far. Beep Code 1-1-2 : Meaning : Faulty CPU/motherboard.If the POST detects an error before this point, a beep code or POST code will be generated instead.

2 beeps is a parity error. Memory needs to be reseated or it is bad and needs to be replaced. The computer POST (Power On Self Test) tests the computer, When a device fails the first part of the POST, the BIOS will send a series of beeps from the PC's speaker (internal) to inform the PC user that there is a problem.

Remove everything from the back of the computer except the power cable. Turn on the computer and see if it beeps normally. There are 2 main beep codes for the Award BIOS: one long beep and two short beeps - Video error (reseat or replace video card) two short beeps - Non-Fatal Error (reseat RAM, check other components). If the computer has never beeped keep the monitor or display connected to see if any change occurs.

Two long beeps and no booting asus a7n8x Motherboard indicate that you need restart your ram and your video card if applicable and also verify that all the cables are properly connected at that there are no loose cables by firmly pressing in each cable.
