I had one a few months ago that lasted just long enough to get Windows 
8.1 installed. The replacement didn't last but a couple of minutes.

So I sent the second one back for a refund and bought a completely 
different board from a different place and it's been working fine.

If you are looking for "relatively" cheap servo drive/motor combos;  I 
have had good luck with Teco Servo systems.

that is not correct. PCs do not boot into BIOS. BIOS is the code that 
runs self tests and initiate bootup from the selected peripheral. Some 
advanced BIOS boot mini version of Linux but that's not common 
unfortunately. Blame Microsoft.

It's the BIOS code that makes beeps when self test detects an error. 
Beeps are somewhat standard. http://www.biosflash.com/e/bios-beeps.htm

That statement is inaccurate. All motherboards require "certain wattage" 
whatever that be. It all depends on the chipset, type of memory and CPU. 
What's also important is peripherals such as disk drives, internal tape 
drives, video cards, etc.

That's suspicious to me. My system with 4 core CPU, 12 GB of memory, and 
Nvidia video card is happy with 450W PSU. Unless that PC has more stuff 
in it, 450W should be sufficient.

I work with 1U or 2U servers here and there and they do not use that 
much power, over 450W, with 2 multicore CPUs.

Mixing old memory with new motherboard is most likely the issue here. 
Make sure you have memory type that manual recommends and your PC will 
help you cut material soon.
