Two short beeps and no further activity mean you could have a motherboard problem or a memory (RAM) problem.
Reseat the RAM modules and reboot the laptop, if the laptop still doesn't work, remove the RAM module/s and insert them into a working laptop to test them, or take them to you friendly computer shop to have them tested.
If the RAM is OK then the fault is the motherboard. Replacing the motherboard may not be a cost effective solution.

Thinkpad r50

The Power On Password problem is near impossible to crack. It is designed to prevent unauthorized access to the Thinkpad and removing the BIOS battery will not remove the password because the password is stored on an EEPROM chip.
There are no backdoor passwords available, the only option is to ask the person who set the password.
OR
There is a way to hack into the Thinkpad to see and remove the password but it requires electronic skills, a program and a working computer.
For details on how to do this go to :-
