Blinking lights on a Dell laptop are used to indicate an error or a hardware problem.

You didn't post the model number of your Inspiron so I can't help you other than to advise you to go the Dell website - click on "Support", enter your laptop's Service Tag code, and click on appropriate links for information and help specific to that model.
