Hello jhasse,
The 3 beep code on this system is a failed motherboard. Below is the 3 beep code representation for the Studio 1555 system. If you are within your warranty period or need any other information you can contact me from my email address listed below.
Chipset Error (North and South Bridge Chipset DMA/IMR/ Timer Error for Intel platform);
Chipset Error Motherboard Failure Time-Of-Day Clock test failure.
Gate A20 failure Super I/O chip failure
Keyboard controller test failure.
Outcome is Motherboard failure
Thank You,
Dell-Jesse1
