Hi,

We would like to understand this better. 

Please release static power and check if the system works. Follow the steps below to release static power.
 
Switch off the system; remove the battery, ac adapter and the power cable. Press and hold down the power button for thirty seconds to drain any excess static power. In case the problem persists, Please pay close attention to the number of beeps. There is a big difference between a “beep-beep-beep” beep code and a “”beep-beep” beep code. Let us know how many times the system beeps.

Let us know about the progress.

I have released the static power several times to no effect, the same problem occurs with six consistent beeps which i believe implies that ether the motherboard or video card has failed.

Yep and that was what i was afraid of, as the machine is 5 years old i'm not sure it's worth replacing the parts and may just get a whole new laptop

It sounds like the video chip has failed - though since it's part of the mainboard, that will need to be replaced to solve the problem.
