HP 625

Hi! I have a HP 625 laptop from the year of 2010 and I have an issue of it not booting up (it's very hard to do it). When I press the power button, I can hear the sound when laptop is on but the screen remains black and CAPS blinks 5 times. I don't know the reason for this, If I manage to somehow boot it up (which can be done by plugging the power cord in the laptop in the right second after pressing the power button), it works completly normal, without troubles. I have got this problem, when I wanted to power it on after about 4 - 6 months out of usage. It was repaired once, when I restarted it to see what happens - the machine was fixing some files as it was seen on the screen, but now this problem is back and if I restart it it doesn't repair anything. Although I mentioned, it can be booted up but is very very difficult to. I know, the laptop is very old, but I don't want to put it away since it works very good when on...Thanks!
