“Yoga ThinkPad” I bought new 2018, rarely used, the last few months it wouldn’t even turn on or charge, today it finally turned on, it let out and unholy weird BEEP and now I see this screen. I hit F9 and press enter and it does nothing. please advise.

    The beep tells me there could be problem with some hardware that motherboard is trying to tell you. I’d dig up mobo manuals and check beeping signal meanings.

      As I was going through the settings it indicated that the “beep” meant that a password & time/date needed to be set. And It also provided me information that there was a setting to allow the beep or to disable the beep.
