Hello Ignoring,
In order to assist you further, please help me understand how many beeps do you hear. The series of beeps, called a beep code, identifies a problem.
The following table illustrates the Beep Codes and the possible problem:
Hope this helps!

Hello Ignoring,
According to the video, it seems to be 1 beep. Which indicates, System Board: BIOS ROM failure. In this case, the motherboard needs to be replaced.
Does the computer have an active warranty? You can check the warranty status here. In case of expired warranty scenario, we would not be able to extend warranty entitled services. If the warranty on the computer has expired, you may contact our Expired Warranty Services (this is for US based customers).

Hello Ignoring,
Since you have an active warranty, I would request you to private message the system service tag number. To private message, click on my user name and click start conversation. I’d be glad to assist you further.
