My computer is not working and I dont know what is wrong with it. When
i turn it on it starts like its normally going to run and then turns
off but the fan still works. Sometimes when i turn it on it just beeps
(long beeps continuously). What is wrong with it? And how much is a
reasonable amount to charge to fix something like that?

Thank You for all of your responses!
Mary

Sounds like a mobo failure. Does an error message or anything at all
flash on the screen?

Many BIOSes will have different beep codes even if they appear to be from the same manufacturer. This is because motherboard manufacturers reprogram codes to reflect their own customizations. You can often go to the web site for the motherboard's manufacturer to find the updated codes, but you may find cases where the manufacturer simply does not document the changes.
