I know this has been discussed frequently on here, and I apologise if this is already mentioned. I originally had the issue with starting the computer and fans spinning on high speed and not booting. It did this for years and I would just try and boot 10-50x eventually it would boot. Recently after trying numerous times and no boot I decided to buy a new graphics card hoping to fix the problem, now wether I put the new card or old card I get the series of beeps during post, I can't figure out the sequence as I have the list of what the beeps mean. I'm guessing the pcie is damaged if neither card works now? It doesn't make any sense. I'm thinking it's the motherboard ? I know people have had success replacing, GPU, power supply and or motherboard.

Thanks for helping

you should count the beeps, how the beeps are. Are the beeps continuously or it beeps in sequence (such as 3 beeps, pause, then 3 beeps).
However, you should remove RAMs and remove the battery then put the RAM back in one at a time that would let you know which if the one of the RAM stick is bad or the RAM slot is bad.
