HP Proliant ML310e Gen8 V2 won't boot pass 20% and emits continuous beeps

Sorry for the long post but this is what is happening.

Server is a Proliant ML310e Gen8 V2 - serial Number CZ142501UD, 16GB Ram all HP compliant, all have HP sticker. Single CPU  Intel (don't get to see the processor and can't remember model)

Server powers up, and just after 10% it reboots/resets and starts again, I think this is by design, during the next stage the POST screen shows 10% Early Processor Initialization, then jumps to 20% Memort and QPI Link Initialization Start, and after a few seconds, the servers emits fast continuous beeps, screen goes black, same in the iLO console and it just seats there beeping. When I press and hold the power button, the fans stop and the power button goes orange, also during the POST the power button is green (Normal Mode).

If, I use the console in iLO and ask it to do a cold boot, the server resets and the power light starts blinking green but the server never boots up. I have to remove the power to reset the server and then the cycle repeats itself. The same happens if I press the power button.

Tests perfomed;

Removed all the RAM and tested every module individually with the same results

removed all ram, beeps changed to show no ram in the system

Reset the dip switch 6 on maintenance switch, no change

removed ambient sensor, no change

disconnected SAS drives and SATA DVD,  no change

Last test - disconnected everything, leaving only CPU, 1 MEM Module, and Power Supply - same result

I am now at a loss what it could be and any help would be much appreciated. Is there something else I can do before I start replacing parts?

thank you for your assistance.
