I've just acquired an 8 year old MAC from in laws. The reason for me acquiring it is that the thing now just beeps at you when you turn it on. It's had sod all use over its 8 years so perhaps it got bored and decided to sleep permanently. The bleeps are 3 short, 3 long, 3 short and a blank screen. From a google search there are suggestions that it could be RAM issues, firmware update problems or motherboard replacement. The third option sounds expensive but does anyone know order of costs for the others or if there may be another explanation? I've been recommended a computer repair place that charges £40 to look at the thing with this taken off the repair cost but if its hundreds to repair then I'd rather not bother.
Any helpful advice would be appreciated
