Looks like you are not the only one with this prob on gigabyte boards, I did a Google search "p67a ud4 1 long beep and 2 short" and there are a few poeple saying the same, here is one from the official Gigabyte forum http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php?action=printpage;topic=4572.0

The beep code means

"The BIOS is unable to access the video system in order to write any error messages to the screen".

According to http://www.pcguide.com/ts/x/sys/beep/awardB12-c.html

EDIT: Forgot to say try clearing the CMOS, take the CMOS battery and all power cables for 10 minuets and if you haven't done so already update your BIOS.

nothing explained what the actual cause is there

I know that was just one I picked at random from the Google results, none that i have read through actually give a reason to what is causing it, if I find one I will post it. Also links fixed.
