    Hi. I have a Dell laptop. After I turn it on, the fan spins for few seconds and then stops. After that there is a continuous beep sound. Power adptor, battery are working fine. Any suggestions from experts?

    If you press any key does it finish the bootup process?

    It wouldn't hurt if you mentioned the model number.
    Did you Google-> dell laptop and continuous beep sound

    Hi Steve, thank you for the response. the Dell laptop model number is Inspiron 15-3521. I did Google, but could not find any solution. The laptop doesn't boot. After i press power button on, the fan spins and after couple of seconds it tuns off and then I can hear continous beep sound.

    Hi Tony, Thank you for the links. I noticed there are 8 beep sounds means problem with LCD screen. Is it possible to remove the LCD completely with cables and attach to a LCD monitor? for this do i need to do any BIOS settings?

    Your laptop should have an HDMI output. Buy or borrow a HDMI cable and plug it into a LCD television or monitor. No need to change BIOS settings. I do this at home to use my laptop as a DVD player.
