Intel iMac will not power up and beeps 'S.O.S' in morris code.

Hello,

I have a co-worker that is sifting through 100s of files that were recovered from a failed server, while doing so her iMac gave her the spinning wheel for a long time and all applications stopped responding. She then restarted the machine, but it would not turn back on and began beeping 'SOS' in morris code. We tried pulling out the 3rd party ram that we installed about 2 months ago, and worked fine for the last two months. If anyone knows what this problem might be or if there is anything we can try in the mean time that would be great! Otherwise we have an appointment with some Geniuses tonight after work.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.2), Office owned machine
