I found this website: http://www.jerry-diltz.net/ami_beep_codes.htm
which lists ami bios beep codes. according to it, 3 short beeps means
Memory parity error. A parity error has occurred in the first 64KB of
RAM. The RAM IC is probably defective. Replace the memory or motherboard.
or
Base 64 KB memory failure. The memory IC is probably bad. Replace the Ram
IC or the motherboard.
