The screen of the laptop is blank, some of the time the laptop will successful get into window after many times of the beeping session.

Hi ROADMAN_A2,

Firstly, the next time system boots into windows, ensure you copy / save all your important data.

The one beep is a BIOS ROM failure which ideally indicates a possible motherboard failure - check this article - http://dell.to/1IuETMX

Create a bootable USB using Rufus - http://bit.ly/1mmhOE1 - copy the BIOS file to that - http://dell.to/2hjuxac - and try to flash the BIOS.

Try a BIOS recovery - http://dell.to/2eMNErl- although your system model might not be listed, please give it a try.

Restart the system and press f12 key on startup - choose diagnostics. Let it run the diags and if you encounter any errors - make a note of the complete error and report the same to us. These are onboard diagnostics and they might possible pick some error if the hardware is not functional. Also, run an extended / thorough tests on the HDD and memory to check for any possible errors. 

You could try reseating the memory modules and the CMOS battery and check if required - download the service manual from the support site link above.

If nothing works, I would suspect a motherboard failure. 

You could contact our team to get a quote for a paid service call - http://dell.to/1vnT6CQ

You could also order the parts here - http://bit.ly/2gxg8Zf

My personal suggestion is that you invest your money on a new machine than to repair this system. However, that is your discretion.

Also, please click my DELL-username and write me a private conversation with the service tag and your Name for case records.

Let us know if you have any other queries.
