What are you seeing other than this? Are there other problems you see? When do you see this? I have worked on older optiplexes and the lights are yellow at different times.

SOURCE: Missing Drives for Dell Optiplex GX260 PC Desktop Problem

if you don't have the cd with the drivers and utilities, then you can download the drivers online with another computer. (you will need a thumb drive or cd to save it on) you will also need to make sure you know what brand of ethernet card your computer came with. once you get that ethernet card working, you can get online and download the remaining drivers, possibly through windows update. be sure to select custom update, not express, so it will search for the hardware drivers for you.

If 1 & 2 are off ... then you have problems.

Memory modules are detected, but a memory failure has occurred.

  • If you have one memory module installed, reinstall it and restart the computer. (see Memory for instructions on how to remove and install memory modules.)
  • If you have two or more memory modules installed, remove the modules, reinstall one module, and then restart the computer. If the computer starts normally, reinstall an additional module. Continue until you have identified a faulty module or reinstalled all modules without error.
  • If available, install properly working memory of the same type into your computer.
  • If the problem persists, contact Dell (see Contacting Dell).

According to Dell's notes:

My dell optiplex 790 desktop pc have a error code is 2-3-4 and some times 1-2 please i want help

Hello there
I have found two things which will help you.
A Technical Guide to the Optiplex 790 which will download from here:
http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/optiplex-790-tech-guide.pdf
It is in pdf format and can be saved to your computer for future reference.
Also I found a Service Manual here:
Dell OptiPlex 990 Desktop Service Manual Page 76
If you click on the green download button at the top of the page then you will taken to a page where you enter 3 letters that are given to you and you can then opt to download it or view in your browser. In both cases it can be saved to your computer.
The latter has a good section on beep codes, and light codes on page 73 ( Chap 20) and following.
It gives your 2-3-4 as a possible USB failure, so try booting with no USB items attached - printer, flash drive, scanner, external drive etc.
It gives your 1-2 code as an expansion card failure and gives various means of checking.
Hope this is helpful, if so would you please register that with Fixya
Cheers
