hard reset is done by shutting down the computer. Then remove the cables and battery to it, and then press and hold power button for 8 secs. Reinsert the cables and battery into it, then turn it back on..

The blinking hyphen means it cant find an Operating System. If this unit were in warranty I would ask for a new one. If not then replace the motherboard.

See the below video for guidance on how to take apart your laptop.

Sound like you have a stuck key and the bip noise is the keyboard buffer pverloading.
If you can't unstick this key, you need a new keyboard.

thats weird. try restoring the computer, st the splash startup screen, press F11 then release it. follow onscreen instructions to restore the computer to factory setup

Go here: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#DFT And download the drive fitness test, burn it to a .ISO bootable CD, and boot from the disc. Run a FULL SCAN and it will tell you if the HDD is bad, which is highly likely.
