Re: Dell XPS 8500 orange flashing power button, 4 short beeps

@Butternutz -

1. What system model?
2. When did you get the system and when did the problem start?
3. Did you install any new hardware recently?
4. Have you tried reseating RAM modules in their slots? Always power off, unplug and press/hold power button for ~15 sec before working inside the case.
