Can you include the HP product number of this ML330e? I am not sur what you mean by "feature board".
The 4 beeps you are describing indicate one of several possibilities:
- no memory is recognized as installed
- no CPU is recognised as installed
- system board has failed

It is possible the system board was damaged when removing and installing parts?

I dont have the part No here at the moment but the feature board is a pci plug in card which runs the ide and VGA and network connection all run through. at this stage I have reached desperation point as it is 4 am and still beeping at me , I hate computers, I am going to remove the hard drive and instal it in a IBM P3-900 desktop I have here just to try and have something for when this car ealership opens in the morning, did I tell you how much I hate computers,
