So I have this alienware 13" laptop

sounds like more of a heat than a ram problem, with rams youre usually having random program crashes and ram related bsods.

No idea about laptops, but the cooling paste does get brittle over time and less effective.

When the motherboard is fucked, youre probably fucked.

Get the manual for the laptop and see what the beep codes mean, is there any output on the screen when it fails to post? Sounds to me like the SATA cable to the HDD might be loose. Or maybe the HDD is failing but that seems much less likely. I don't think it's a heat issue because this started after you dropped the laptop.
>it started beeping twice and fails post
>it goes to sleep or any reason it turns off and beeps again
That seems really weird, and like a software issue which is why I'm saying something related to the HDD is at fault, if you know for certain that the ram isn't. I would check to make sure the drive is physically in tight, and run CrystalDiskInfo to check the smart data of the drive to make sure it's not failing. other than that you can try to find a replacement mobo, it's probably not going to be worth it but if you can find your same laptop in bad condition cosmetically you can probably get it for cheap and swap the mobo.

2 beeps, means "No RAM detected"

Ima try the HDD.

And I said ive dropped tehe laptop, before I even got the underpowered charger. just thought I should throw in there that its got a few bumps and whatnot(Also its missing fucking screws, I caught one falling out the other day) but really it didnt start fucking up until a few months after getting the correct charger(dont worry, I dont think that using the CORRECT charger fucked up my laptop)

What would happen in the months leading up to the failed POST beeping bullshit however was that my laptop would overheat like a mother fucker, it infact has always been prone to doing this. Anytime it works hard, its like the fans cant keep up, they start to whirr very loudly. I shouldve definitely invested in some form of cooling fan, or just keeping a fan blowing on the vents period.

This sounds like classic overheat damage to me, I've had two laptops suffer with this. Take the mobo out and reflow the solder as best you can using a heat gun mostly around the gpu area. This might give you temporary relief from POST fail, if it does then it's proof that that was the problem.

Also, clean the fluff and shit out of the radiator.
