• Upgrade memory for a Dell 4700 [Amin Note: Service Tag published by policy TOU] Compatible PC2-3200 memory options

  Hello.

  I hope I am posting this in the correct place. I have an old Dell 4700 [Amin Note: Service Tag published by policy TOU] and I recently started to restore for occasional use. It has Windows 7 Ultimate on it and the original 256 MB 1Rx16 pair sticks of memory PC2-3200U-333-10-C1 with that he came. I turn to most compatible memory available for this model. Someone (with the final tone in their voices) can explain what memory to buy and complete all 4 locations with? This always seems to spawn a debate on how fast the PC and which can and cannot be run in this machine.

  This will be used primarily by my girlfriend and 2 teens to surf on the internet and retro games like Fallout 1 and 2, Dungeon Keeper II and Master Of Orion 2. Nothing really graphic intensive. It is the treatment of films as a media server, the ability to move the files in a big number all by managing downloads and sending files and folders tablets and phones while posting to social networks that will be bogged down there. So I need the higher memory and the fastest possible for this old dinosaur. Thanks in advance for any help! ~ Jim

  Go HERE to find DDR2 memory that is guaranteed to be compatible with your system.

  RAM maximum supported by the Dimension 4700 is 4 GB memory DDR2 [4 x 1 GB modules].

  Note: Although you can install 4 GB of memory in the Dimension 4700, unless you have a 64 bit system, your system will address only 3 GB + - memory.

• Insect caught in the monitor u2414Hb and support is a disaster. No service tag

  First of all the question I seek to solve. A small insect, probably a fly has managed to make its way into my monitor in any way. It became lodged between the Panel and an outer layer or in the Panel and quickly dies. And has been stuck in place for more than a month. Attempts to dislodge without disassembling the monitor failed.

  Now, AFAIK disassemble the monitor to clear it will void the warranty and risk of damage to the screen so I prefer to avoid. I decided to contact the Department of support or guarantee dell to see if we could do something on this end.

  The monitor was purchased new from NewEgg.com on 01/01/15, with an indicated 3 years manufacturer's warranty. So, it should always be in the manufacturers warranty period.

  Although none where Dells website, or via their telephone system you can contact the technical support or departments without a number of warranty service. My monitor does not have a serial number, and Dells own materials state clearly that stand-alone monitors sold prior to 2016 (like this one, in 2015, has bought manufactured 2014) do not always have a service key.

  I tried every number on my monitor and its box, both online and telephone assistance. A number search as a service on the Web site key (but not with the telephone assistance) and appears as a system of office since 1997.

  Telephone service has been terrible. Repeatedly asking a service key, even when I explained that I don't have not one. Repeatedly ask me about Dell computer system I bought it, despite my clear statement that my problem was equipped with a screen of stand-alone and that I was not the owner of a dell computer system. Repeatedly asking me a Dell order number, despite my stating clearly it was not purchased from Dell, but bought new from newegg.com. Repeatedly telling me to contact the seller (newegg) to some how get help as a guarantee of the manufacturer. They told me a serial number was unnecessary because millions of people had bought monitors with this serial number. As if this makes no sense at all. I was told that a product model could be used to find what product I was calling about. I was told no numbers appearing on my device, or on its original packaging (that I kept) could be found in any system. I was transferred to several operators in several services all followed the same scenario and giving the same spiel on the * service tag. Before an operator involved, I've been dishonest and has asked for my phone number. All this despite the pages of Dell support stating clearly that some of their products do not have a key support.

  It does not appear to be process at all to deal with Dell products manufactured and sold without this little number that supposedly so critical. Dell apparently cannot do anything with the model # and # series uses all manufacturers in the world.

  . Exactly how to make contact with the service the customer without a service key.

  And can do something about the dead bug that introduced itself in the center of my screen as a brown spot little? Or am I stuck risking the destruction of my monitor with a canceled warranty? It doesn't make sense that a bug should be frankly worm its way between the layers of the screen.

  Monitors without a number of service purchased from resellers (Amazon, Best Buy, Buy.com, cost Co, Wal-Mart, Sams, other boutique online, eBay, etc.)
  * Based on the start date of monitor 20 digit PPID number code, Dell will guarantee the monitor for 3 years for most monitors. There are exceptions (S2340M, S2340L, etc.) who had only 1 year warranty.
  * You must contact the Support of your country (1-866-618-2044 USA) by telephone. Tell them to open only one internal Dell Oracle knowledge Information Centre
  * In the search space, they should enter PNP13081, and then click search. This opens the article,
  "Replacement for the monitor Dell and procedure policy - political international Dell. They should read scenario 7

  Scenario 7 =.
  Discussion: The customer is unable to provide a Dell order number or monitor the Service tag number. The only information that the client has are the PPID 20 serial numbers for the monitor.
  Warranty: date 3 years from manufacturing monitor integrated in the PPID number 20 digits
  Replacement procedure: Implement the replacement of screen against the dummy tag

• Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the beginning

  Original title: Vista processor

  Stupid Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the start.  Cannot run anything with any request of CPU without getting bogged down and crashing.  It is not windows defender, I suspend this service and the machine is ok for another 1/2 hour, them I'm up to 50% of the CPU.  The idle process said Task Manager is > 90%, still indicates 50% CPU usage and the cooling fan looks like a 747 taking off.  Should I just pull the machine and go for Linux, or what?  Cannot run games or whatever it is, totally disgusted with vista of POS and microsoft can it Deep and do not get windows 7, it is probably worse.  Is that all I can turn off to get the same performance than, say, windows 3.1?  It would be preferable to the current situation.  MSCKMA.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Why when I open my email on another computer for example, in Outlook Express or the site of Telstra all my e-mail messages get deleted from the full mail?

  When I opened my email on another computer for example, in Outlook Express or on the Telstra site do all my emails in my inbox deleted completely from complete Mail. This happens with two email addresses different set up on two different computers. I wish that my e-mail messages to stay in complete Mail unless it is deleted from there. Thank you

  Your question is not clear. Is this something that happens, or something you're worried might happen?

  Whatever it is, the answer depends on what you do and how your email clients are set up.

  If you use POP in Outlook Express (really? "It's a very old program!) so he can delete messages from the server. You should be able to leave messages on the server, or you can switch using IMAP.

  Just looking for messages in your Web browser will not erase all messages, but if you delete a message there, again whether or not it is also deleted on any of your computers depends on whether these computers using POP or IMAP.

  I am aware that I have you confused probably further.

  My preference, as I want to be able to work with my email on multiple devices different, is that you use IMAP only, but others can, for various reasons, choose to use pop. There is no good or evil, what suits you best, but in both cases, we must understand a little the operation of the service.

  I have just replaced my ssd hd and now when I installed windows again, I am in need of my serial number (oops, should have thought before wiped my other HD:------).

  I checked and it is not a sticker with the serial of windows on the computer. so is there a way to recover sing service tag?

Unfortunately made Microsoft the installation of deployment of the ridiculously difficult Windows/Windows 8 Service Pack1 8.1 causing much frustration users.

• "Setup is preparing your computer for first use" loop problem

  Hello, I was hoping you guys could help out me with a big problem, I ran across when trying to install Windows 7 on a desktop computer new, custom - build. I managed to successfully install my Windows 7 64-bit, it appeared, but when I try to run it, that I will meet a black screen that says "Setup is preparing your computer for first use" and it will stay there forever, I would say. I let it run all night and didn't go anywhere.

  I tried to start in safe mode, and Windows was loading files sys32, he got to "Classpnp.sys" and it froze. After a few minutes, the screen is blacked out, and I got fired the familiar screen "Setup is preparing your computer for first use.

  I bought the copy of Windows 7 nine FRY, there will be no problem with that. My HD is a (new) 240 GB PNY Optima SSD, my mobo is a (new) Z97X-SLI Gigabyte, and I have 16 GB of RAM. All these things have been recognized by my BIOS, it seems that everything is properly connected.

  I tried to install Windows 7 on a second time and exactly the same thing happened. I also tried to repair the installation to start upward, but he finds no problems. Also a check of the memory and the disk has verified without any problem. The only things I plugged are my monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

  Does anyone know of a workaround for this screen loop "first use"? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Replacing the hard drive is not, actually, I already have another to replace it. The problem is that this laptop came with no disk for the operating system (XP) support and drivers. Everything was simply stored on a separate partition.

  However, the biggest problem of all is that my service tag sticker is missing, apparently after having door/peeled out of the bottom of the laptop, and without being able to log on in fact at all I don't know how to find it at this stage.

  I suspect that any help from Dell's Tech support will be a process much more awkward without the re-initialisation tag #. The only other option that I noticed by looking at a page on the order of the drives support was the "order No." the purchase, I have of course failed to follow as well.

  At this point, I'm just curious as to what my best options to possibly retrieve serial number if it's even feasible. I'd rather be ready to do a simple process once I have involve technical support.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Does anyone have a recommendation for the best 3D modeling application / program?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I love Autodesk Inventor, but you need to use BOOTCAMP or VMWare/Parallels to run it because it only works with Windows.

  See you soon,.

  1. see if you can download/run the MSRT tool manually: http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx

  NB: Run the FULL scan, not analysis FAST!  You may need to download the MSRT on an uninfected machine and then transfer the MRT. EXE to the infected machine and rename it to SCAN. EXE before running it.

  3. now post the logs required in a forum appropriate for support by an expert in the field. DON'T SKIP THIS STEP!

  I can recommend the assistance of experts available in these forums: http://spywarehammer.com/simplemachinesforum/index.php?board=10.0, http://www.spywarewarrior.com/viewforum.php?f=5, http://www.dslreports.com/forum/cleanup, http://www.bluetack.co.uk/forums/index.phpand http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30

  If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility.
