It might possibly be your hard drive, I had a problem like that before and it made beeping sounds when I turned it on.

Was your laptop making rattling or clicking noises before this?

If it was, your hard drive might be broken.

I found the same problem in a forum, you might read through it and see if it solves your problems. Brian USA

Hello Bharath,
My name is Krishna and I work for the Social Media and Community Team at Dell. As per the diagnostic indicator, it looks like a RAM read/write failure. Try reseating the memory module and see if it helps. Also, swap the memory into a different slot on the system board and try installing a known good memory module into the various slots to pin-point either the module or system board slot causing the problem. The link below has instructions for reseating the memory modules.

Hope this helps.
