                    Hi, i've been doing some research.
It suggests to try this first:
Switch off the system; remove the battery, ac adapter and the power cable. Press and hold down the power button for thirty seconds to drain any excess static power.
But then i found this further down the forum:
3 beep code on Dell Inspiron 3521 indicates it's an issue with systemboard you will have to replace the systemboard.
There was also this:
I would suggest you to update the BIOS on the system. Please enter your service tag # on the link below, select the OS, then download the BIOS from BIOS section onto the system and install it.

Sorry for the conflicting info, just trying to get info and see what works for you.
Hope this helps!
