beep code

Hi,

We have a Dell Dimension E520.

We switched it on this morning and it did nothing just beeped at me.

The beep sequence seems to be 1-3-2

Can anyone help?

Cheers

1-3-2 sounds like memory problem.

Is the power switch LED, solid green, blinking green, solid amber, blinking amber.

 What is the reading of Diagnostic Lights on the front panel?

The Diagnostic Codes are HERE.

Thanks Bev

Solid green light

Various diagnostic lights flashed on and went off in a random sequence just leaving a drum shaped image lit up.

When I looked up from the box i noticed the screen was lit up - Hooray!!

Thanks for you help / good luck. Cheers

I always get this beep code whenever I think I have problems with my memory, but all of a sudden it disappears without me getting aware what exactly happened.
