Those are usually indicators and codes telling you there is a hardware issue. It is very common with this model to have GPU (Graphics) chip overheating issues.
The flashing LED codes mean something:
LED Component Error Condition
Blinking battery power LED Battery Insufficient charge on the battery
Blink: 1 - Caps Lock/Num Lock CPU CPU not functional
Blink: 2 - Caps Lock/Num Lock BIOS BIOS corruption failure
Blink: 3 - Caps Lock/Num Lock Memory Module error not functional
Blink: 4 - Caps Lock/Num Lock Graphics Graphics controller not functional
Blink: 5 - Caps Lock/Num Lock System board General system board failure
Blink: 6 - Caps Lock/Num Lock BIOS BIOS authentication failure

Considering that the flashing is continuous in time but with one pulse, I think the problem of my computer may be:
Blink: 1 - Caps Lock / Num Lock CPU CPU
not functional
What can I do to resolve this trouble?
Thanks a lot
Well in my past experience you could replace the CPU and fix the system but in theory the reason for it going back was because the system was not getting proper ventilation. So in saying that you could need a CPU fan as well. Those code are not always spot on either. It could be a bad motherboard. It would be more so a gamble at this point. I would recover the data and purchase a new system in my opinion. If you want to attempt repairs let me know your exact model and I can send you links. (Model example: dv6-2332)
