Dell Opti-Plex GX280 - not booting (or staying on should i say)

$

ok.... want to say thanks in advance for any help, i am a complete novice when it comes the inside of pc's etc.


anyway i understand this computer isnt new, however i dont use it much as i have a laptop which i use mostly for work and college.

Tonight my child was going to use it and it started up as usual then went straight back off - it did do this before last year and i just cleaned dust etc and it worked ok

today it went on and then back off, along with some beeps - i did some research about the lights at the rear. My PC's lights are GGGY - which i couldnt pinpoint a reason for.

did some of the basic tips from online such as removing cmos battery for 5 seconds - which at first i thought did help as it then got as far as allowing me to hit f2 bringing up the screen - then going off

its also saying diskette 0

I really dont know what to do - if its something i can do i would like to do it, if its something expensive then i would say goodbye to old faithful


Thankyou
