I broke my laptop screen so I thought to connect the laptop to TV worked fine but then I removed the screen from the laptop and now it beeps all the time even if I turn down volume. The laptop is Dell inspiron 15. Please if someone can help me stop beeping.

As far as I know there's no way to turn off the PC speaker in the BIOS/UEFI. You'll have to consult the manual of the laptop, find the location of the speaker and (if possible) remove it/cut it off. Or you could put the laptop into a very big noise-reducing box 😉
It's because the beeps are coming from the motherboard and not the main speakers. They mean there's something wrong with the hardware (obv your screen). Usually it's a small code e.g. 3 short beeps, 3 long beeps. Then you can google the meaning of that code and find out the cause and maybe a solution.
 
The thing is that I know whats wrong (no screen). I have removed the screen from the laptop before that when the broken screen was hanging there was no beeping sound and when I cut the wires connecting the laptop and the screen then it started beeping. I have no issues if it only beeped and then stopped but its beeping all the time. Laptop is working fine on the TV screen no issues. I only want to stop the beeping sound.
