Windows 7 Black Screen on start up

The beeping isn't a driver issue, it's a hardware fault.

Motherboards have different beep codes depending on the manufacturer. For Dell PCs, six beeps means a video BIOS test/video card failure. See the beep code list here:

xps 8100 beep codes - XPS Club Forum - XPS Club - Dell Community

Unplug the power from the PC, and then try taking out your video card and putting it back in and see if it continues to beep.

I switched to on board graphics and it still had the same beep code and I gave my card to a friend and he tested it and it worked on his computer so I think there is a motherboard issue

As a final check, try booting a Live Linux CD, see if you get the same problem?
