Hey there, I just received a Dell T3500 workstation from a friend. After installing an SSD and booting up, everything seemed normal. But when trying to install a GPU driver, I faced a BSOD. Once the issue was resolved, the system displayed error codes with lights 3 and 4 illuminated. I changed RAM sticks and even added an extra 2GB stick, but it still prompted memory configuration questions. Eventually, I turned off the PC and removed that extra RAM, which then showed error codes with lights 1, 2, and 3, and failed to power on at all—just a single beep. I've attached a video for reference: 8mb.video-GjB-9p2XuuFT.mp4

Removed the CMOS battery and placed it back, leaving its internal components uncertain about their configuration because the memory settings weren’t confirmed.

Hi, after completing that step, the device stopped beeping during startup. Now I’m facing another issue: before launching Windows, a warning appeared about the CMOS battery needing replacement. After proceeding, when the Windows logo appeared, the screen went dark and then restarted normally, but no output was shown—only "No Signal" on the monitor. I’m using a DisplayPort connection and have tried changing the graphics card slot, but it didn’t resolve the problem.
