The number of beeps is important to determine the issue.
In general if it just keeps beeping that's a sign of bad RAM.
There is a service manual available for download that might help in diagnosing the issue: http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/Manuals/acer/2009/ServiceGuides/SG_Aspire_5532_10192009.pdf
