Spider,
I'm thinking that it's very possible that one of the internal cables has
become somewhat loose and is no longer making full contact. I would first
check both ends of the IDE ribbon cable, but it could be any of them
stopping the final part of the POST. If that doesn't fix the problem, try
removing and reseating all of the memory modules and then, if that doesn't
work, do the same thing for any add-on cards (ISA, PCI & AGP).
Peace,
G Man

Went into BIOS saw nothing resembling "system halt" in the boot area of the
BIOS or any area. I tried setting the BIOS different ways with no luck. More
specifics,

beep "No error?" then displays the dell logo screen and then the message in
dos looking screen (Black) this is the complete screen message.
