Hello Bran,

I will give everything a try. I got the map, only thing it does not help. It goes Yellow, then stays green, HDD light lits for a moment or two then nothing. It has not given me the 3rd and 4th light in sequenced since I knew of the map and started watching. I dunno what happened in the past.
Thank you,
Eric Vogel

Sounds like CPU or Memory, if you have any cards in any slots I would
remove all cards and install one by one until the symptons appear , or
just reseat all the cards. Their is a map to the 4 lights just do a
google search.

Most Dellls have diagnostic software to test the HD. I think it's F12
when you boot. Just run the IDE test, which tell you if you have a HD
problem.
