Question : Problem: Motherboard makes beeping sound

I have Dell XPS 400 with the 945 Intel chipset.
Yesterday i was trying replace the Graphics Card. But i did not  pull the blue latch outwards while doing so and kind of plucked it.

Now the motherboard beeps 5 times every time i switch the PC on and there is no display.

also i noticed that the copper circuit inside the PCI express slot takes a wavy shape whenever i try to push in the card.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer : Problem: Motherboard makes beeping sound

A Beep code will have a pattern to it with a pause between.
An example for a 5 beep code would be a pattern like 1-3-1
sounding like -->beep(pause)beep beep beep(pause)beep
Can you identify the pattern, if so here are the beep codes for this model.
