[SOLVED] Psychopathic Laptop!

Hi Everyone!

I've a Pavilion dv6000 which I'm trying to fix for a friend (why do I offer to do these things?) and which emits rapid beeps on startup as though a key is stuck on the keyboard. Trouble is I've just fitted a new keyboard and it's still happening! After I installed the keyboard the thing worked perfectly... once! And then started beeping again. I got mad with it this morning, and removed the cmos battery for an hour and also took out the RAM modules and cleaned the edge connectors with a rubber. The thing worked perfectly for two startups and is now merrily sitting on my counter at home beeping at me!

Has anyone experienced this with this type of machine before and if so has anyone a solution? ... Please?

Dave
