Consequently any links posted from that site prior to that time won't work anymore.
Looking at the original question, here is the manual I referenced...

This thread provides information on beep codes: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/bph07107?jumpid=reg_r1002_usen_c-001_title_r0001
If your PC is older than 2015, the 8 beeps (as indicated in the thread) indicate a corrupted BIOS.
