3 long 2 short

Got a blinking thing happening, 3 long 2 short. From what I could gather from a lot of searching it's a hardware issue? What the heck does that mean tho, does it need a doctor?!

Yes, it means a hardware failure -- most likely memory stick problems or a failing motherboard.

Unfortunately, we have no way of diagnosing or repairing your PC from here.  

Sorry, but this is just a self-help forum staffed mostly by volunteers and we are neither able, nor permitted, to provide any repair estimates.

For repair estimates, you would need to contact an HP Repair or Service Center.
