Startup problems

[bylund]

I've been having numerous problems with my X61 7675-CTO with Win Vista Business and most of them are due to Lenovo's system updates. But this one is a "residue" from when I had my computer sent in for service. Ever since, upon startup I have three beeps: one long and two short. Furthermore, no buttons work - not the blue ThinkVantage button, not F8 (to choose e.g. safe mode) and no other buttons. So when I have problems (which I do...) I cannot start the computer in safe mode, I cannot run Rescue & Recover and I cannot run PC Doctor.

I have tried everything I can think of, but I really have no clue why these startup options won't work. Will I have to reinstall Windows to get this to work? (I really, really don't want to do that.)

Thanks,
