What is the diagnostic status for 2 Beeps on boot from a Dell Studio Slim 540s?
I have a Dell Studio Slim 540s with a problem.
During boot before anything is displayed the computer beeps twice, followed by silence. Then repeats this beep sequence.

Note: I have already checked system documentation. No mention of the meaning for the beep code status is stated.

Two beeps means your RAM is not detected. Open the case, remove and re-seat the RAM, Test 1 stick at a time.

Thanks for the answer. If you happen to know of a full list for all of the codes I would love to have it.
I had already tried pulling out the RAM (3 total modules) and then reseating before posting the question. But with your response I am starting to think I may have a bad module or two.
