Hi tawfiktito,

From what your describing the problem could be a few things but we can trouble shoot and hopefully pin this down for you! Firstly are you able to get to the systems BIOS to reset defaults / Boot to the systems Diagnostics to see if any hardware components have failed?

The ‘1’ – ‘2’ with blinking power button usually indicates the systems is attempting to finalize its recourse configuration before booting. As the systems not getting past this point there could be a memory problem or possible NVRAM corruption. If you have any known good memory to test I would suggest swapping sticks individually, testing slots one at a time to see if a slot or stick has failed.

The NVRAM can be cleared by following the instructions in this guide: http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/KCS/KcsArticles/ArticleView?docid=DSN_9411B9DF8C4A48C0AF3B60F301E53E88
