    Hi,
    I'm new on forum and my english isn't good - I'm sorry :)

    I bought new laptop Dell Studio 1558 in 2010 year. Today I have problem. When I turn on my laptop, the screen is black and I hear six beep code and next five beep code. In instruction of Dell I read that six beep code = broken graphic card and five beep code = "error real time clock"?

    So, graphic card is only broken or what else? I should repair that laptop or buy new?

    Thanks for answer. :)
