HP Laptop continuous beeping on startup, computer boots

[Mizshelli]

Hi, I need some help. My HP G60-635DX Laptop is getting a continuous beep on startup. The computer boots but it takes a while, and the beep doesn't stop until the windows flag starts showing on the screen. When the computer gets to the desktop, the mouse jumps around, like when I click on My Computer, it opens something totally different. Also, when it starts, the hard drive LED on the front is blinking in time with the beeps. Can anyone help me fix this? It happened once before and HP got it to stop but now it's back and they won't help me!

I was checking HP's website for a beep code, but couldn't find any. Apparently, you have to count the number of beeps or led flashes and call them so that they can assist you from there.

This link shows some of the LED blink codes for an HP laptop http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...c=en&product=4120392&tmp_track_link=ot_search and also this page as well may be of some help, but it seems HP doesnt want to give much without you having to call them for assistance... http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/...c=en&product=4120392&tmp_track_link=ot_search

The blinking LEDs on a laptop can give clues as to what is wrong just as the beep codes can sometimes.

unfortunately it's impossible to count the beeps, they are continuous for about 45 seconds. And my cursor jumps all over when I'm typing too. Thanks though!

I figured out the beeping. It's the battery. Got a new one on order.
