How lazy, don't you have the Google to use?
Testimonial: "Thanks everyone for your solution ideas (with exception of RSole). I reseated the memory modules and noticed that the SATA motherboard connection was extremely loose. I replaced the cable and everything works again!! Thanks again."
RSole, you need to realize there are some people who are not as computer literate as you THINK you are!!! I asked for help and I get your smart mouth!! For your information I did Google it and what it told me does not make sense. So here I ask the question again (to somebody other than RSole!). Any thoughts?

Look at the motherboard (mobo). Failure of motherboards is usually due to breaking capacitors. A few years ago a capacitor company stole the "recipe" for making capacitors from another company and tried to make their own, unfortunately they did not get the ingredients right and the capacitors started breaking after 2-3 years of use. They sold these capacitors at very cheap prices and a lot of computer companies and power supply makers bought them. This is easy to diagnose. Look for capacitors (caps) (they look like little tiny soda cans) on your motherboard (mobo). They should be perfectly flat on top and not bulged or swelling or leaking anything.
You could also try to change out the power supply if you can find another one that fits it.

I deal with this sort of thing alot with servers. Easiest thing to try first is reseat the memory.

As you can imagine, this is not simple thing to diagnose.
First, we need to try Dell's steps to fix...
Remove non-essential peripherals…
Except for the monitor, keyboard, and mouse, remove all external peripherals including:

Try rebooting. If that doesn’t work, Dell states you need to do the next step.
Remove and Reseat Basic Hardware items:
At this point, Dells says if that fails contact them.
If my hunch is correct, you may have something on the motherboard shorting a connection or you have a blown capacitor. Get some “canned air” and blow out the computer thoroughly. Some people have reported the same symptom having dust or other debris causing the issue, so give it a good blowing out,
At the same time, inspect your motherboard thoroughly for an anomalies. If you see anything resembling the picture below, you have a serious motherboard problem which will require replacement.
