Hello!

Can you please tell me how did you solve the problem for I am having the same problem with my laptop. It keeps on beeping with 5 beeps in a row. The beep is louder on the boot screen and then it beeps with sound.

Any idea how can I work this out?

Thanks

I had the cmos coin cell battery replaced and it solved the problem.

i am having the same problem but sometimes it beep 3 times and sometimes 7 times...

help me please i am damn worried

3 times is usually a system board failure. 7 times is usually a processor failure. You can try replacing the processor first. If that does not solve your problem then you may need a new motherboard. You may just try re seating your processor and see what results you get.

could you help me, because i also have five beeps and i replaced my cmos battery with a brand new one and it is still beeping. what else could it be? it beeps loudly on start up, but once the laptop is on the beeping gets lower but it never stops..

Check for a stuck key on the keyboard.

nope no stuck keys :(

Try replacing the reserve (CMOS) battery first -- see p. 61 of the service manual below.   If that doesn't fix it, the mainboard needs to be replaced.
