The beeping you are getting on boot up is an error code. Listen carefully and you will usually find that it is a series of long and short beeps (like Morse Code). Write the series down.
Now go to the web site of the manufacturer of the PC and search for their error codes. Look up your series and it will tell you want the problem is. It will be a hardware issue - usually related to processor, memory or hard drive. As you stated that you dropped the hard drive, that is most likely going to be the problem.
Save your pennies because you are probably going to need to replace the hard drive with a new one....

Your hard drive won't be beeping because it has nothing in it that can beep. Your computer may be beeping.
It's beeping because you broke something by dropping it. take it to a repair shop for them to fix it.

placed the force in a freezer in one day. next day, attempt to lower back up the force. Temperature alterations can replace tolerances and you will get fortunate. The examine head runs on a magnetic coil and that is alignment is serious. Your drop has led to it to get out of tolerance. the top might have additionally contacted the floor, which will certainly do records harm, yet to not all of it. the press you pay attention is the top pulling out of the examine section and banging against the quit, attempting to shake off any debris and then re-attempting the operation. Barring that, no commonplace laptop keep can assist you. in case you have records you surely might desire to get off the force, then deliver it to a records sparkling-room difficult disk restoration keep. they'll disassemble the force and circulate the platter to a standards reader that gets your records, although that is going to cost you approximately $500 on the conventional.
