heeelp me with fe31m

heeeeelpp!!!

My vaio fe31m has just decided not to work at all!!! When I press power button, leds go green, speaker beeps three times.. and thats all. No Vaio logo, hdd is not working. I checked memory by using modules I used 6 months ago (I did small memory upgrade), so it's not the reason. Might it be a Cpu failure? Or motherboard? It looks like even bios is not starting, so it's not a virus but a hardware problem. Does enybody know what's going on?

Thanks

Have a look at the Beep Codes here: -

3 beeps usually indicates a problem with the memory so that the Vaio does not POST.  When you checked the memory did you replace both memory sticks?

yes I did. I returned to original factory modules, which has been working fine before I replaced them. Both cases I'm getting 3 beeps 😕

actually... I'm getting 1 long and 2 short beeps. I looked at beep code and... if I'm not wrong, I have award bios, which means that video card is dead :slight_frown: looks like I need a new laptop :slight_frown:
