Our mistake, there appears to be no ram sticks in the system.

Dell Inspiron 530S with Vista. Model DCSLF with Intel core 2. Western Digital hard drive. The system was given to us. All devices were powered (monitor and computer) and all devices operational (mouse and keyboard). The Dell had a yellow light and when pressed it turned green = power on. Then we got two beeps which never altered. It does not bootup. There is a yellow light on the motherboard that stays on when the system is turned off. It's near the DVD rom. Two beeps, a pause, two beeps, etc. &nbsp;Ideas?

Storage devices include any device used for storing and retrieving digital information. Hard disk drives (HDDs) use one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. Data is accessed in a random-access manner, meaning that individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order and not only sequentially. The primary competing technology for secondary storage is flash memory in the form of solid-state drives (SSDs), but HDDs remain the dominant medium for secondary storage due to advantages in price per bit and per-device recording capacity. CD-RW (Compact Disc-ReWritable) is a digital optical disc storage format that allows information to be stored outside the mechanical HDD.

Storage Hardware

A personal computer is a general-purpose computer whose size, capabilities and price make it useful for individuals, and is intended to be operated directly by an end-user with no intervening computer time-sharing models that allowed systems to be used by many people, usually at the same time. Personal computers may be connected to a local area network (LAN), either by a cable or a wireless connection, and through that to the Internet. A personal computer may be a laptop computer or a desktop computer running an operating system such as Windows, Linux or Macintosh OS.
