dell studio xps beeps six times when booting

I have a studio xps laptop.  Upon boot, there is no screen.  I've tried to attach a monitor via hdmi, but I still don't get anything out.

6 beeps is a GPU failure.  One short-term solution:  gently apply heat from a hair dryer to the GPU for a few minutes.  It may temporarily resuscitate the system.

If that works, you've bought some indefinite amount of time.  If not, given the value of the system, it's replacement-system time.
