Mathematica is able to compute these limits, the result is in terms of a partial derivative of a regularized hypergeometric function. For $k=2$ I find $$\lim_{k\rightarrow 2}x^{-k}I_k(x)=\frac{11}{3}-\gamma_{\rm{Euler}}+\ln x-\frac{1}{6x^3}\left(_2\!\tilde{F}_1^{(0,0,1,0)}(-3,1,-2;x)+\,_2\tilde{F}_1^{(1,0,0,0)}(-3,1,-2;x)\right).$$ The superscript notation is Mathematica's way of indicating which variable to differentiate. As a test, for $x=1/2$ the right-hand-side evaluates to $-4.833333\cdots=-29/6$, which agrees with a numerical evaluation of $\lim_{k\rightarrow 2}[\beta_x( -1 - k, 0) + H_{-2 - k}]$.
