laptop won't start makes 2 beeps

My dell inspiron 15 3521 won't start and continously beeps after starting giving 2 beeps. After a 100 tries it starts by luck but then works fine even the dell diagnostics after startup shows everything is normal. But y won't it start? This happened once before aswell 3 months after i bought my laptop for around 2 weeks after which it resolved spontaneously. Now this problem is back. I tried removing and reinstalling the ram aswell but it was of no use either. Plz help.

Hi dannyhkdsf,

2 Beeps on Dell Inspiron 3521 indicates Memory or Memory slot failure. I would suggest you to remove and reseat the memory on the system to check if the beep codes disappear. If two or more memory modules are installed, remove the modules, then reinstall one module and restart the computer. If the computer starts normally, continue to install additional memory modules (one at a time) until you have identified a faulty module or reinstalled all modules without error.

Please let me know if this helps.
