awarded PC to nine dell 755

My original Inspiron studio slim pc with windows 7 died with the last edge of power.  Looking to replace it with a refurbished dell 755 Walmart.  My question is, the 755 is a 32-bit, but I have the disk to reinstall my old pc 64-bit.  So, can I use this disc of resettlement for the upgrade 755 32 bit to 64 bit.  I must also, the disc of reinstalling the drivers to install once the upgrade is complete.  How difficult is it going to be?

I used this same model unit on my place of work. I would only recommend you load 64-bit Windows 7 above if you have enough RAM. He crawled and 1.5 GB of RAM, running under 32-bit Windows, can't imagine the experience with 64 bit Windows 7 above, unless you have 2 to 3 GB.

You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

  • How to install Windows XP Home SP2 to a Dell 755 Tower comes with Vista Business installed?

    OK guys,

    I aquried a used Dell 755 minitower that had wiped HARD drive, but originally shipped with Vista Business installed o/s. This computer still had the sticker code product key for Vista Business on the computer.

    I have a Windows XP Home SP2 OEM disc with a product code and tried to install it on this computer, but I get an protection windows with a blue screen error whenever I tried.

    I have a Vista Home OEM disk basic with its own key code product. The computer has allowed me to install this operating system, but not would allow me to use its product key code, but would allow me to use the old Vista Business key product code that was on the computer and complete the installation. Everything was fine, but I just don't like Vista o/s and I would like to install my OEM Windows XP Home SP2 to this computer and high grade it to SP3.

    In dealing with this computer, I discovered it would allow me to load Windows XP Pro just find, but I was using a copy borrowed this o/s and had to uninstall if I could return it to its owner. I also borrowed a copy of Windows 7 OEM I installed in this machine and it works just fine, but I had to uninstall it to return to its owner.

    I still want to know why I can't install Windows XP Home Edition for this machine.  Does anyone have information about this situation or a way to solve it?

    Btk (billy the kid)

    Looks like the drive you borrowed your friend had a SATA driver integrated into it.  What you can do, is go into the BIOS and change the AHCI to IDE mode.  This should allow you to install XP.  Or you could use a floppy disk and install the driver by pressing f6 during installation.

    Don't forget: OEM keys are related to the original motherboard enabled on.

  • Establishing monitoring on nine Dell UPS who do not card management

    Goal : track on nine Dell UPS who do not card management.

    • Dell UPS 1000W x 8
    • Dell UPS 3750W x 1

    Is it possible to Garland USB ports serial (RS - 232) on Dell UPS?  Trying to get tracking via the installation of management software Dell UPS on eight Dell UPS 1000Ws and a Dell UPS 3750W.  The eight UPS are racked together, but none of them have an installed management card.  I'm trying to figure if it is possible to Garland USB or the ports series, or do I need to connect each ups its own USB or serial port on a server/PC?

    Thank you!

    Hi bezoid,

    Daisy chaining the devices is not supported. USB and options series are designed for a single connection. You can try a USB hub or a switch to serial port, but these have not been validated and may not work properly with the multi UPS management software.

  • Given to NINE DELL D620 from Ebay - experience Windows = 0.9 (CPU)! Can it be remedied with parameters of WIN7? I don't have to run the Performance tool to realize the computer was slow. Thank you

    WIN7 settings can improve performance?   Other forums?

    Nothing you can do about it.  You must be very techie trying to change a processor, it is still possible.

    It is possible that some driver or setting is in Windows that causes this problem, but I don't know of one.

    During the examination of a computer, always look for the first processor.  Benchmark CPU Google then just the designation of the cpu.

    Your is T7400 and has a score of 1260 reference.   It is indeed very low.  Pentium 4 has about 800.  Most of the score today 7500 at least 2500 and many CPUS.

  • Given to nine options?

    Hello

    You gave to nine Dell PC or laptops available for sale through your main site? I'm in the market for a second PC for the home and have been very happy with the Dell computer, that I had in the past and that I am currently in operation. However, this second computer will be just for kids with homework and the internet for research purposes, so I would rather pay for a whole new system when a refurbished professional would do the trick. It's a service you offer? And if so, how do I access it. If this is not the case, what do you suggest instead?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Adding a second drive to my Optiplex 755

    I bought an Optiplex 755 renovated a few months back that came with a floppy (really?). I decided to add a second drive, so I removed the disk and put a Seagate 750 GB drive in its place. I entered the program installation and active the drive, rebooted, went back into the Setup program to verify that the disc was recognized that it was. BUT now, whenever I restart the machine, I have the black screen with the following text:

    Replacing the HARD drive is not valid, continued use can lead to long-term reliability problems HDD please press that F1 in you want to continue.

    It also gives me the choice to press F1 to continue, F2 to enter setup or on F5 to run tests.

    I press F1 and it starts normally.

    My question is how or what I do to eliminate this black screen? Because if I restart and let the system is here and waiting forever.

    Thanks for your help.

    The DT, SFF, USFF systems REQUIRE specific Western Digital or SAMSUNG drive model. Replacing the HARD drive is not valid is specific to 745 and 755 SFF and ULTRA-COMPACT systems.

    The DT, SFF, USFF models will have a thermal message.  The model of the Tower does not care the drive Type.  This is due to "thermal considerations.

    Desktop Dell 755 is configured to reject anything but a hard drive Western Digital or Samsung, claiming that it is due to "thermal considerations.  This is for Desktop and SFF and ULTRA-COMPACT models.

  • Dell SSD drive, 2710

    I recently bought a
    given to nine Dell 2710 coming from the Dell outlet with core I7 processor,.
    2 TB HDD and SSD of 32 GB.

    My problem is that the
    SSD disk does not appear to be used as nothing is ever written
    and no speed improvements are beneficial to be him.

    The spectacle of the bios settings
    the SATA mode is defined in Raid mode in avancΘs but if I load the
    legacy OPROM and press Ctrl I access Intel RST at the start and then
    the HARD drive and SSD are indicated as non-RAID. If I chose to create a raid
    volume, then he said to all data will be lost.

    Do I have reason to think
    What a Raid volume should have been created before the software
    Re-Setup at the factory, assuming that he had cleaned down as is
    a used pre model or am I missing something about the use of the DSS
    walk in this model.

    If I do not create
    a RAID volume will be that a set of recovery Dell discs re - install Win 8 pro
    and all the drivers or will I find myself with a pretty but
    box non-bootable.

    Any help would be
    very much appreciated.

    Hi Sundeep again.

    Done a little reading on the net and found a suggestion to shrink the SSD. I did this in the disk management console and then open Intel RST. Acceleration icon appeared and her now activate the acceleration works. Magic.

    Problem solved.

    Thanks for your help, all the best,

  • V305 printer problem

    I installed a new cartridge, color & black & white in my printer, print a test page, but returned the next day and continued to get a 'improper cartridge' & 'replace the left cartridge' (black). I've done everything I can think of, including downloading new drivers, and the problem persists. The cartridges are nine Dell series... 9 for black... but will not work. Is there something I can do to fix this, or is the printer has just been shot? This V305 has not received much use and has never been clunked or hit, so I'm stumped.

    cvault1,

    If you unplug the printer from the wall and remove the brick of power for 60 seconds, this will reset the error messages that the printer. I would then plug everything back in.

    Turn on the printer.

    Open the printer (power on) and remove the Dell Series 9 black cartridge and then reinstall it. I then remove the Dell Series 9 color cartridge and reinstall it. Now, close the printer, and it will print an alignment page.

    Error messages?

    Print Cartridge black = Black (left) cartridge = color (right side)
