This sounds like you have issues with the Ram slots, try swapping the Ram on other slots. Usually System Beeps when there is issues with Ram and System stops / hangs in between installation when you have Ram issues or issues with Ram slot. Since you have tried different Ram chips, it should be issue with Ram slots on the M/B. Also try to refit the processor.

Many things hardware/software can cause the computer to hang. First, you
should check the Event Viewer (eventvwr.msc) to see what error messages you get. Motherboard, memory, controllers, etc. can cause problems. I once had a bad USB host controller and the computer would hang all the time. If you have some diagnostic software/hardware to check your computer's hardware, try to use it.If you suspect there is a software issue, you can try MSCONFIG to remove some of the items that are running. You might even try autoruns.exe from sysinternals.com to see all those programs that run at startup. Virus scanners and adware scanners could also help diagnose the issue.
