It would be helpful to know if this machine running XP, Vista or Win 7.
Can you hear the CPU beep during boot?
Do the lights come/blink on on the front of the laptop?
All this information is important if you want accurate advice to help solve your problem.
If you have a desktop PC monitor available, connect this to the laptop's VGA port and press the Fn (function) key simultaneously with the F5 or F6 key (the key showing 2 monitors) while booting, to send the image to the external monitor.
If you can see images on the external monitor, then your laptop may have (in ascending order of seriousness/cost of repair), an LCD panel inverter fault/failure, a cold cathode backlight fault/failure, an LCD panel fault/failure, a graphics card fault/failure, a motherboard power management system fault/failure, a motherboard fault/failure.
Your beep codes are..
1 short beep System is OK 2 short beeps POST Error - error code shown on screen No beep Power supply or system board problem Continuous beep Power supply, system board, or keyboard problem Repeating short beeps Power supply or system board problem 1 long, 1 short beep System board problem 1 long, 2 short beeps Display adapter problem (MDA, CGA) 1 long, 3 short beeps Display adapter problem (EGA) 3 long beeps 3270 keyboard card .
So looks like a display problem, have you tried any of the recovery/restore options available when you press F8 on boot up
Could very well be the power supply. The +12V rail may still be live (hence the fans running), but the others may be down (meaning you won't get a beep signal if the memory modules are removed and the computer restarted).
Try removing all memory except one board. If it does not come up switch boards. Still no luck, check power supply if you can or switch it with another. A power supply checker is pretty cheap, 10 to 15 dollars, and well worth the investment, although it is not foolproof. Try switching PS off, physically remove the BIOS backup battery, then replace it and try again. That should have cleared the BIOS back to factory defaults. It sounds like a memory problem, but as a last resort, you might reseat the CPU. The CPU fan runs, yes? Can you get some other memory to try? Well good luck!
try these two alternatives: 1.try to clean or change the slot of the memory 2. check on th power supply you put on your motherboard for the new board there are the socket for the power to be placed on the otherboard
