The beep codes say memory.
I ran memtest86 overnight and it passed.
That said, I'm not sure how good memtest86 is.
Could you suggest a memory test program that might find

I don't want to do it unless I know I have to.
Static, ribbons, fear and trepidation.
I certainly do not want to have to buy some more DDR2 memory.
