Do you get any display on the screen? If not and all you get is beep, then it is likely to be a issue with your RAM, either it's not seated properly or damaged. Usually the first thing when you fire up your computer, the bios is looking for a min set of memory from your ram and if this cannot be located then it's going to give you some beep. If you know your Bios maker, then you can listen to the amount of beep and look it up on the internet for that bios maker to determine the actually cost. Now if you can get something onto displayed on the screen, could be a keyboard error issue, usually a key being press down. I believe it to be a memory issue, and to diagnose this, take all your ram out from the bank, and try to boot it without the memory if the beep is beeped differently. If it does, then that mean your have a bad memory, so try swapping the other sticks of ram if you have any to on the first bank of memory slot, and leave the rest empty, and see if this works, and if not and you still get the continious beeps, then your bios is corrupted, or your motherboard if i would say. In that case, it's best to get a new computer, it is cheaper to get a computer then to repair and pay for parts and labor cost.

When i turn on my Dell Inspiron 2400 Desktop Computer why won`t it start.

Is the computer plugged in to a known good power source with a known good power cord? Also, make sure the power is fully seated on both ends. When you press the power button are you getting any indicator lights? The power button itself has an LED that will be either solid green, blinking green, solid amber, blinking amber, or off. Do you hear any beeps?

Beeps twice then pauses and beeps twice again(repeats) and wont boot

When your computer emits beeps when you power on the computer, it's usually means that you have a memory issue. Try re-seating the memory modules and power on the computer. If you have more the one module, insert one at a time and power on the computer.

How do i unlock my dell keyboard?

Dell Inspiron 530s keyboard unlock
Is the keyboard usb or ps2? If its usb then try another port. If its ps2(Green) then power down the pc by holding in the power button for 8 to 10 seconds. Pull the plug and make sure no pins are bent. Plug it back in and boot back up. This should fix the problem if its ps2. Regards

Dell inspiron 530s won't boot up and gives me 4 beeps a pause, 4 beeps etc.

4 Beeps indicates a RAM memory failure. Disconnect power, press and hold the power button to release all power from the motherboard, then re-seat the Memory.

If error doesn't go away, try modules one at a time to find the bad one
