Dell laptop blinking lights, 3 amber 3 white. Still functioning normally.
My Dell laptop has blinking lights, 3 amber 5 white. I looked it up, and it said that the code was power rail failure. However, my laptop is working just fine with no noticeable issues. I ran the full system scan which showed no issues. I took it to my IT department, and a guy ran a more thorough scan which also showed no issues. He was very perplexed as he said that in the 18 years he's been working there, he has never seen a laptop come in with blinking lights like that and still function normally.

To start, we and our users need to know which specific XPS Laptop model? Also, go HERE and insert the private Service Tag number to check the warranty status.
