What will happens if you holding the fn button and turning laptop on? Pre preboot and device check?

No...just black screen

IM tried to hold "fn" or "d" but not help

If i reset CMOS i can reach 5 beeps sometimes

8 beeps means 3 variants only:

1. Dead LCD

2. Loose cable connection, or display cable corrupted.

3. Dead graphic card.

8 гудков означают только 3 варианта:

1. Мертвый ЖК-дисплей (не в вашем случае).

2. Ослаблено соединение кабеля или поврежден кабель дисплея.

3. Мертвая видеокарта.

Is there a possibility that you need to remove the memory from the laptop? the seller from China suggested this option

He said :"reinstall the memory banks"

Hi!

You can try to do this and check if there is any result or not.

I think there's no point in reinstalling the operating system really .
 Maybe you really have a problem with your SSD, I had a similar problem, but there is no way to find it by checking and reinstalling it, or you need to take your whole computer to a technician, or the SSD itself to bring and check (
 That's how my computer went down((
