Beeping sound indicate hardware problem. I would check the RAM first. It is located at the bottom of the notebook. You need to open a small cover with a screw driver. Give the RAM memory module a good clean and test it 1 piece at a time. If it is not the RAM than it could be the graphic card problem which I am unable to help because it is built on the motherboard. Hope this help.
