Hi
One possibility...

4, 5, 6, 7 | Fatal errors related to the operation of critical motherboard components - such as the CPU. |
Is the CMOS/RTC battery likely to be discharged?

I tried already and unplugged for few minutes, then put back again the battery, plugged back the power and turned on. Same thing happen, 6 long beeps, skipped the bios even though i continuously pressing escape button.

Hi
For BIOS (this laptop answer may help)...
https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c02693833
Turn off the notebook.
Plug the notebook into a power source using the power adapter.
With the notebook off, press and hold the Windows logo key and the B key at the same time (WinKey +B).
NB: On some notebook models, it might be necessary to press and hold the Windows logo key and the V key (WinKey +V).
While pressing those keys, press and hold the Power button on the computer for 2 to 3 seconds, and then release the Power button but continue to hold the Windows logo key and the B or V key until the HP BIOS update screen displays or you hear a beeping sound (usually 8 beeps).

Hi
6 Short Beeps | The chip on your motherboard that controls your keyboard (A20 gate) isn't working. First try another keyboard. If it doesn't help, reseat the chip that controls the keyboard, if it isn't soldered in. If it still beeps, replace the chip if possible. Replace the motherboard if it is soldered in. |
