    happened to me a while ago. The motherboard needed to be replaced In my case well that s what the dell technican did anyway. Could also be a problem
    with the power unit either. Maybe somebody else can offer you better advice but I'd contact Dell Support. Although that doesn't tend to be quick and easy experience....

    How old is your computer?
