PLEASE HELP! Beeping and black screen when laptop turned on
OK, I've had this laptop (HP pavilion dv2000) for a while now, and I have no idea what happened. Recently, when I turn it on, all the lights turn on—but after around 5 seconds, it beeps loudly four times. Also, the screen is completely black—nothing pops up. The black screen goes on forever. If anybody has had this problem or knows how to fix it, I would be extremely grateful for your help with this problem. I have no idea what to do. Thanks.
Is this a good question?
I have the same problem but mine beeps constantly one after the other about 4 seconds apart. And each i geuss beep "group" beeps 7 times

I finally had to take mine in to see a professional. The motherboard was shot and it wasn't worth the $ to fix it....sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

My laptop (hp windows 10) has been beeping all along about 75 times now and I tried everything now and I really do not know what to do

Hi @loveu
Is there a pattern to the beeps e.g. 4 beeps then a pause repeated or 2 beeps pause repeated or 1 long beep pause repeated etc? Also could you provide the model number of your HP laptop? What have you tried to do?

my hp pavilion 17 just did the samething, but after turning it back off and on three or so times it started working fine again.
by Gregory Peel
Well... Surprisingly... I had this error too! It wasn't the PSU though! I didn't install my RAM properly & all the pins wasn't snug in the DIMM slot.
Thought I'd share my experience.

My laptop keeps beeping and has a black screen and the only way it stops is when I unplug it or take the battery out of it

Mine was doing this, beeping, so i shut the screen which on my settings doesn't force a shut down; it just turns off the screen... It made it to the home screen, but mouse wasn't working, nor the keyboard. Then I removed the bettery, and booted up while plugged in, so running stright off the wall socket, and it worked fine.... Powered down, put the battery back in, and again it booted up just fine. I think i had it sitting idle too long and the battery drained a lot causing a boot error??? it's just magic!!

im having that problem right its beeping once then stopping then beeping then stopping over and over I tried a memory test and it passed and the other test wouldnt work? I dont know what to do...
by Nicola Berry
Im having the same problem its beeping continuously but its one beep pause then one beep the memory test passed and I dont know what else to do..
by Nicola Berry
Hi Nicola Berry.
Not quite sure I understand when you say the the memory test passed.
How did you prove this? How many RAM modules are installed? If more than 1 did you try either1 only in either slot etc?
Is there a display on the screen at all? Are you getting the HP logo at all? Are there any error message on the screen? What are the lights on the keyboard showing e.g. power, hdd etc? Are they blinking or solid?

Usually, turning the laptop upside down and banging on the mattress 5 or 6 times with the battery and charger removed does the trick.
Worked for me!! :D

Hi, one day I decided to go on my laptop HP PAVILLION DV6. I turned it on and left it to to start up. I was getting impatient but left it for more then an hour. It stayed on a lit up black screen. I have tried many things to get it to work again but none have worked. Please Help Me Fix This!!! Or atleast tell me how to factory reset my laptop without it having to start up.

The problem could be the memory or video card , try changing the memories with working . for video card you need technical expertise to open and check from the mother board .

Laptop or desktop beeping noise is majorly an indication of error or bios battery expiry. In my case bios battery was expired. I changed bios battery and my issue was resolved...
