Laptop beep error

So yeah, i have this Fujitsu Amilo L7320 in here, and it's having some problem's booting up, if you press the power button, there's 6 beeps, and a blank screen
the beeps are like this: 4 short beeps, 1 short beep, 1 short beep. What happened was, a few years ago (maybe 1 or something) i was using it, and.. it crashed, i tried turning it on, and it got stuck at the bios, or made some random beeps (at the time i did not count them)

So now, i am determined to fix this laptop, so i got it out, and without testing, turned it on. It gave me a
2-4-3 beep code, so i put the laptop on, and i wrapped it in a towel, and left it for 30 minutes. When turning it off and then turning it on, it gave me a 3-4-3 beep code, and still no booting up. So I turned it off and back on again, one more time, and now i am stuck with a 4-1-1 beep code (all of these beeps have been short beeps)

I have done the following things and it makes no difference
-Take the RAM out, and use different DDR2 memory chips
-Strip the Laptop down, and clean everything up
-Kick it
-Removed EVERYTHING, which it didn't need to boot up.
-Ask it to turn on
-Smile at it.

So if this helps conclude the problem
-There are 7 indicator lights at the bottom right of the laptop, 4 of them are on (no flashing lights), here are the ones which are on
-Power
-AC Charging (it's connected to AC because the battery sucks)
-Hard drive light (There's no Hard Drive in it, it's just a solid light.)
-WiFi light

Now, to the specs of this laptop
Intel Celeron M 1.73GHz 400FSB
1gb DDR2 533 RAM (1x 1gb ram)
VIA P4N800 64MB Onboard Graphics
N/A HDD
DVD-RW Drive
15.4 WXGA 1280X800 Display
Phoenix Bios (Dunno which version)

EDIT1: Well i just turned it on again, and it gave me a 2-4-3 code (i think, it might have been a 3-4-3 code), so i restarted again, and i got a 1-1-1 code, then i turned it off and on again, and it was 4-1-1. What is going on here guys?

Can you reach the BIOS battery? Maybe pull it out to try and reset the BIOS?
Pull out the BIOS battery, and the main battery. Unplug the charger. Remove the RAM and clean the RAM slot properly. Insert a known good RAM module. Press and hold the power button for 30 seconds to drain the system of any residual power in some capacitors.
Leave the BIOS battery and the main battery out, plug in the charger, and try powering on?
