    I am really unlucky with this machine, i already got a broken GPU and Mainboard and now the CPU dies... :(

    Today after showing a flashing scroll lock, my screen stayed black on boot.

    After a reboot all was back to normal but i called a tech from Dell and he told me all of those error codes mean that something is really wrong,
    now i have to send it to dell for further diagnostics.

    wish me good luck :/
