I was given a HP G60 series laptop and I just want to know if it's fixable before I part it out. When the computer starts up, the screen before POST shows up but then goes black and the laptop just starts beeping. The beeps are in half-second increments and don't stop until I press the power button. I'm thinking it's either the RAM or the graphics adapter, a 8200M. I know it's common for these to overheat and die, so it wouldn't surprise me if that were the case. I also know that the RAM is mismatched (1x1GB+1x2GB), but they are the same speed. If I pull one out the computer does nothing; there's no video at all when it's turned on.
