PC will not boot

Hi

My Dell Inspiron 24 desktop, I got a message saying power adapter and wattage could not be determined.   I turned the PC off and now it will not reboot.   It turns on, 2 beeps and screen is dark.  
does anyone know how to fix this?

thank you

I asked in your other thread to tell us the exact PC model number. "Inspiron 24" isn't sufficient info. There should be four numbers after 24, like 3464, 5459, etc...

And as I said over there, 2 beeps is typically a RAM (memory) problem...

Did you try what I suggested over there for starting to figure this out?

And please don't double post the same question...

Sorry I did not mean to post twice.  Yes, I did try what you suggested and it did not work

Given both symptoms, you're probably now faced with a system board replacement.
