You're working through some tricky issues with your Dell G5 5000 prebuilt. So far you've confirmed the power supply is functional, ruling out major electrical problems. The fan and RGB lights show a peculiar pattern—brief activation, brief shutdown, then staying off—along with an amber flashing light that only appears twice. The manual mentions troubleshooting codes, but none of them seem to appear without a white code. The power supply indicator changes color before the lights behave oddly, which might hint at its status. Since you have just one RAM stick, removing it isn't an option right now. Consider checking connections, testing with another power source, or consulting online forums for similar symptoms. Let me know what you find next!
