I have a weak battery and have always had to keep my Dell laptop plugged into keep it working. I used the computer a few nights ago and it was fine. When I went to turn it on the next morning, it wouldn't turn on and just started beeping. The power and battery indicator lights turn on but nothing else happens. Does anyone know what I can do???

do it again, and this time note the beep codes, both number and length. then go to the site of your BIOS maker and see what they mean. [Google beep codes and bios maker for the info...] . Beep codes are basic signals your BIOS puts out when not much else will work.
