How many Beeps you got?
How many RAM you have in your laptop?

If you have two, then,

1) switch off the laptop
2) remove the battery
3) remove RAM completely and insert one RAM on one slot
4) reseat the battery
5) switch on the laptop

If you know how to remove CMOS battery from motherboard of your pc, then switch off the laptop and try to clear CMOS and then try to switch on the laptop and see again.

As you said beeps reduced to 5 with single RAM try with that RAM. If nothing works it may be LCD failure according to Dell Inspiron Beep codes
