Your problem may be one of overheating. Blow out the vents with compressed air. make sure there is air circulating.

yup. That may not be the answer, but worth a shot. Check to see if the fan is working. Blow out a match and when it smokes hold it by the vents to see the air flow. I had a desktop recently that did that. The beeps were about a minute apart. eventually it came closer to startup and eventually could not stay started for long. Someone may be able to recommend a program to check temperatures.
