We are fixya not HP, so.... why ask here? and not HP real>?
OLD DESKTOP?: a000 is not the real model , only part.'
is this PC ,13 years old. ?
not even the word desktop stated once, wow.
my wild guess is it is a DT, due to super easy motherboard viewings. if not , say so please..
no full service tag stated, it has model and full p/n on it.
See my photo at end. (long post) lacking that.
HP made VAST pc with A000 , as part of much larger P/n
tag line 1 ,3 and 5 tells the helper what is REALLY there.
it even tells us if the parts are for USA. are you?
NO OS STATED in your post.
a000 is a very old PC and has the CAP disease, the china clone caps classical failure.. (well known) 1999 to 2003

so many questions, who fix it, why not just buy another newer PC, that has w7 on it already, the one that is not a virus magnet like XP. (or VISTA junk) W7/8/10 years.
you will not replace the caps easy, (takes special tools) {I can}
there are no new motherboards, HP does not sell things this old.
that leaves used, or (omg NOS) motherboards with the same useless China noname caps in it, why go there? avoid this and run from the box. (I would)
the unstated OS , is problematic here, XP will not let you change the mobo, and MS stopped taking calls in XP and VISTA>
so cant force activation that way, why go down this path.?
what I'd do is buy a usde PC with W7 coa sticker on this side
or newer' (COA is the OS license from MS)
for $100 or near, i can find a PC desktop. that is
vastly better that yours.
but if compelled to run bad motherboards same year.
then if I had your service tag , i could in fact point to them sold used, and be a match , exactly, the HP parts surfer lets me do that.(ask)_
first tell what OS is there? of the 14 used.
then post full service tag for 10x batter answers.
in 2006 HP added the new F11 key. started the year 2006
so if PC is that or newer the F11 recovery key works and you dont need any
HP (unstated) OS(unstated) install media (CDs)
see? how that service tag is magical?
what I'd do is get a newer PC. I bet yours is 2003 or older, i do.
here is the best solution for an upgrade.
id never buy any MOBO with those caps onboard. EVER.
here are some great whys to get a better machine
and not go broke.

LEGACY PAIN: my wild guess , is yours is here.?
off the HP legacy page? if use scrap it.
data--------------------legacy pigs----------------------------------------------
what is your 1,3,5? only this matters, first. and unstated
next is OS, what OS is running any PC from HP runs 6 or more OS
sold new, even linux ,freedos and P/S2 ! and w95 up
tell more and get x10 better responses !
Like do you need mobility?
do you need W10 or 64bit support. (be wise)
do you want the PC to last 10 more years? or 1 week.
what APPS do you run if any, or only use IE6 the virus magnet.
do you use the internet (LOL)
do you need the MS CLOUD.
the list is endless but this is basic.
did you ask friends if they have a used PC they don't want
or would sell for $10?

They are usually in a plastic caady which has a latch on it find the latch and release the caddy hope this helps

the lcd lamp driver (inverter is likely bad)
inverter provides the high voltage that the lamps need.
as it heats up it has the symptoms you describe.
easy to replace.
I see them on ebay for around 30.00

Hello!
That beeps indicated that there is a problem in the video Graphics adapter and in the memory.
try remove and clean the memory and then fix it back, im sure that would resolve your problems. however if this not solve then your should replace the memory.
If affraid to do so, then maybe let the repairman do it for you.
fixya!
best regards, melnavz

Sounds like the LCD backlight or inverter went bad. More probably the inverter,and that's good because,of the two, it's usually cheaper and easier to replace.
Before considering those,check the lid switch to make sure that it is operating correctly and not stuck down.
