Hi Mattyracer,
Welcome to the Community Forum.
7 beeps indicate motherboard failure. Disconnect all peripherals, Ac adapter, battery, press & hold the power button for 15 seconds and check if it works.
If the issue persists even after that I suggest that you get it serviced by a technician. Let me know the region you belong to, to check the options.

7 beeps usually indicates processor failure. Add all the other damages and it's time to buy a new computer.

Hi Mattyracer,
8 beeps indicate LCD screen failure. Perfrom the same steps as suggested earlier that is flea power & check if it helps.
