Hi,

The seven beeps represents processor issue. In this issue I suggest to take out the ac adapter and the battery, then hold down the power button of your computer for 20-30-seconds. And after that plug in the ac adapter and battery and try to power up your system.

I thing this will help you

With my Dell Studio 1555 it will power on and run but keeps beeping 7 times and then 7 times over and over is the processor going bad?

as it still will boot to DELL Logo and as i have no hard drive will go to operating system not seen or something like that

Thank you

maybe it is caused by the bad contact between the hard drive and the mother board, You can check it and see if it is well connected. to speed up your computer, you should update drivers http://www.driversweb.net/Dell_ATI_Radeon_X1900XTX_512MB.html

Sorry for delay

will i have no hard drive on it

this was going to be a motherboard replacement i got two of them (Lot of two board off eBay)  and one did not work and this one powered on fine until i hooked the speaker to it and shows on a external screen working but beeps 7 times and then nothing and then 7 times again.

I tried another processor but same thing also both processor are out of dell studio 1555 so they should work or I would not even get a boot screen

But the beep should not be happening?

Hi Rajesh,

I have a Dell Inspiron M5030 and I have the same problem.  The laptop will not turn on and beeps 7 times, pauses and beeps 7 times again repeating until I turn it off.  The laptop is out of warranty.  Is there anything you can do for me?  Thanks.

Seven beeps is a CPU or mainboard failure -- more likely the board than the CPU.  Given the age of the system and cost to replace a board, you're likely better off replacing the system than repairing this one.
