Laptop won't boot up

[Alice-Rose]

When I go to boot up my computer, I am greeted with a black screen, And the caps lock blinking white 3 times, followed by two short blinks, And 3 loud beeps repeated 5 times...how do I fix this?! I've already tried a hard reset and it hasn't fixed anything.

Here's what you need to do, to identify the issue and resolve it accordingly:

(To identify what the beeps represent: click here)

• check if it works fine on an alternate/external monitor.
  • If it works fine on an alternate screen, please Perform a hard reset, Attempt a BIOS recovery  and then, Run the System Diagnostics tests.

Hi! Thank you! So my screen won't transmit to the tv, and I've tried hitting f4 like it suggests.

@Alice-Rose This seems to be a hardware malfunction, if you've gone through all the links I shared and yet the issue persists, and I suggest you talk to HP support and discuss your options, follow the below steps to get started:

1) Click on this link - http://www.hp.com/contacthp/

2) Click on Sign-in or select the product using the below step:

3) Enter the serial of your device.

4) Select the country from the drop-down.

5) Click on "Show Options".

Fill the web-form, to populate a case number and phone number for yourself!

Also, if you are having trouble navigating through the above options, it's most likely because the device is out of warranty, if yes? please send me a private message with the region you are contacting us from,
