Brand new XPS 8900 Win 10 won't turn on, flashes yellow 2 times power made a break of 7 times pauses then resumes.

I've not seen a chart explaining flashing power on the 8900 XPS button codes. And there is nothing in the Manual.

You need to contact Dell tech support immediately. You have 21 days from the date of billing (no delivery date) to pick them up. And then you can order another.

Otherwise, technical support should work with you to solve the problem under warranty on this system.

If you are comfortable working inside the case, it is possible that something got its place potted during shipping. Then you can try reseating the RAM and PCI-e cards modules and cables between motherboard and drives and connection etc. Don't forget to read the instructions on the inside of your PC use in the manual before opening the case.

  • Adding an SSD to a new XPS 8900 - the games begin

    I recently bought a new 8900 XPS of Costco. I bought an Intel SSD 240 GB 535 and wanted to use it as a boot drive and I was going to format and use the 1 TB came with the PC as a storage device. Initially, I cloned the drive OEM to the new SSD. This worked not so great - slow time - about 35 seconds of startup.

    I did a clean install of Windows 10 and tweaked the settings of the UEFI. Computer started without the OEM disc hung at this stage. Current start time is about 26 seconds. A little more than 18 seconds of playing with BIOS/UEFI. None of the changes to the BIOS seemed to make any changes. I was going to live with that, but I have 2 laptops to win 10 that are to start in 11 seconds and 8 seconds. I had just about everything responsible for appropriate programs.

    Then, I started with the hanging OEM drive and the boot SSD drive. I went to the OEM drive format and startup I'm met with screen ePSA error error Code 2000 - 0723 - hard disk - drive detected... (which apparently is not a code that recognizes Dell?) Continue to hit, I'm on the desktop. I already had the installed Intel SSD Toolbox and optimized the SSD drive. I did a quick diagnostic analysis on the SSD and it reported no problem.

    Restarted the PC and press F12 to run the tests in the Dell Diagnostics. I now see an error code 2000-0142. It indicates there is a hard drive with the new SSD failure. I have restart beyond the error message and make the Intel Full diagnostic Scan. Intel shows no problem. Hmm? I turn off the computer and unplug the SSD and starting on the OEM disk. I get the same screen ePSA that already displayed, press to continue and I'm at the office level. Reboot, then run tests, the hard drive now and it passes all other tests. I turned off the computer, removed the power cord, the CMOS battery and the power button. Back together and clear the log files. I'm met with the same screen ePSA error code 2000-0723.

    I have an another SSD - 240 GB of SanDisk. I unplug the drive OEM and plug Intel and SanDisk. I cloned the Intel on the SanDisk and only to the SanDisk card. Same screen ePSA opens, but now the diagnostics Dell passes all the tests. I run the Intel driver update utility, which displays no update. Device Manager displays all operational systems.

    If you have done so far, I appreciate it. :-)

    Questions-

    Reference Dell sees something he does not like with the Intel SSD, but Intel said it works fine. I could return it, but I think that there is nothing wrong with the hard drive. I don't know what to do next.

    How can I get rid of the warning of the ePSA? It appears little matter what hard drive boots.

    Is there an other BIOS/UEFI which is available? I've pretty much exhausted the changes and 18 seconds a looong time appears.

    Thank you!

    SSSANTI - good news! error code 2000-0723 has gone through an update of the bios dell version 2.1.3. Check the support page for the download file.

    A word of warning - update not gotten too smooth I would have thought. I ran the exe of the BIOS and let it do its thing - when he finished update, the computer is for restarts itself, and it seemed as he took in a loop - it would be marketing and then shout down before the splash screen. He made several times - I almost unplugged the machine. Finally, it starts at the start-up screen and then end the initialization up to windows - everything was fine. I rebooted a couple of times and even made a cold start to ensure there are no problems and everything seems OK.

    Disconnected a hard drive test, rebooted and no mistake - FINALLY comes

    FYI - it seems that it starts a little faster.

    Hope this bios update resolves your problem as well.

  • Compatibility M.2 SanDisk SSD X 400 with new XPS 8900 and cloning issues

    I just got a new 8900 XPS running and ordered a Sandisk X 400 1 TB SATA III M.2 drive for her.  I know, adding that a PCIE SSD with adapter would be much faster.  But I'm not a gamer and concentrate more on edge backup and storage.  And the new Sandisk card gets good reviews and should give a nice speed boost.  This will be my first attempt at cloning of a new boot disk and install an SSD.  I went through the forum and found some good information.  A few questions...

    One of the sons said that an SSD with the B and M keys (like this one) may not work.  Searching the Web I found no comments from anyone who has tried this particular SSD in a new XPS desktop.  No compatibility issues?

    Another thread has been posted problems with starting the XPS 8900, when you add a new disk, but the updated BIOS to 2.1.3 seemed to be the solution.  I confirmed that my machine already has this version of BIOS.  Once again, any concerns?

    My plan is to clone again SSD in the computer using Acronis or other software, then set as the boot drive in BIOS.  Is there a reason to delete the operating system of the C: drive, thereafter, or can just stay as a backup if problems occur with the SSD?

    I have already installed a few programs including MSOffice 2007 and Windows Essentials, so I can use the machine, but otherwise it is always very clean.  When I do the clone will be these OK execution since the SSD without much messing around?  And they will have to be uninstalled from the HARD drive?

    Thank you!

    X 8900-2508BLK

    1 TB HARD DRIVE

    I'll answer some of my own questions.  The M400 Sandisk SSD drive arrived today and I found a screw M2x4 at Ace Hardware to install it with.  Installation was super simple.  I used a pair of pliers to hold the small screws in place and then a Jewelers screwdriver to fix it.

    He seemed to take more time for the first start that made me nervous, but all loaded without any problems.  I rebooted and that you press F2 to get into the BIOS and the new SSD was there!  And then let the computer loads Windows and checked Device Manager and it's still there!

    As expected the reader not yet appear in Windows because it was not formatted.  I used under Computer Management disk management to initialize the disk.  And now I have a new drive I: 935 GB free.

    So far so good.  Seems like the M400 Sandisk should work perfectly.

    Next step is to clone.  Always blazing new territory for me... when the drive is cloned it will remain I: or it will be C:?

  • New XPS 8900 with 1 TB of Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 errors

    Bought, new system XPS 8900.  After less than a week, already affected by HARD disk errors.  Checked with Seagate, downloaded the tool so that the updates of the firmware.  None is available.

    Yes, the system is under warranty and support, but the point here, because I hear repetitive as of late problems with faulty Seagate hard drives, I'm not the only one?

    Seagate (1 to) # ST1000DM003-1ER162

    Personally, I always use the WD Black drives.  But that's what gave me.

    Any thoughts or additive?

    -Update-

    After installing an mSATA SSD and try to configure Intel RST to use as cache SSD, I found that the installed version of RST was causing system problems and establishment of acceleration would not occur.

    After a brief visit to the Intel Download Center, I found an update for Rapid Storage v14.8.0.1042.  I installed it without problems, and since all the software and hardware problems have disappeared. Then, I was able to complete the configuration of acceleration for the SSD cache drive.

    In addition, HARD disk errors have also stopped.  I would recommend this updated version.

  • New XPS 8900, restarting itself

    Hello

    I just bought a new desktop XPS 8900 computer rendered 25/05/2016 and restarts itself.  No new hardware installed or the program with the exception of World of Warcraft and Ventrilo.   Just really started using this machine last week because I've been very busy after his arrival.

    I search the web and he says that he may be PSU related issue.  It's under warranty, but no idea why a new computer restarts it self?

    Thank you.

    Susan

    Windows 10?

    There are several reasons possible, hardware and software: PSU, RAM or HDD problem, overheating, corrupted the OS or other software...

    Just restart? All the errors on the screen? You can look in the Windows Event Viewer for errors at the time of an accident that could point you in the right direction.

    If you bought directly from Dell, I think you have 21 days from the date of the invoice (not delivery date) to return to contact Dell Tech Support as soon as POSSIBLE.

    If you got in a big box store, you can probably return/exchange it under whatever policy they have. So go.

    Whatever it is, don't forget to reset Windows to the factory image, before return you it.

  • Only brand new XPS 13 no boot device found

    Hello, I just received my brand new 13 XPS in the mail today, when I opened and turned it top read "no found boot device, press a key to restart your computer."  After several attempts to reboot and also starting for other boot on the portable devices (' Windows manager and partition itself "none of them have solved the problem.)  From what I understand this, is this a problem with the hardware with the SSD on the laptop? Or is there something I can do which will fix this problem?

    Check to make sure that it is in mode UEFI and secure startup is enabled.  If both are set, yes - the ssd is likely bad.  Send the replacement system - it is absolutely useless to have a whole new system of DOA torn apart for repair.

  • All new XPS 8900, card mother USB3.0 connector question

    Hello

    I just got my 8900 XPS nine this week, as a replacement for my Inspiron 530 s who died after 8 years of good service (my previous post on the Dell Community is older than 8 years...). This is the high-end with GTX 960, SSD, 2 TB HDD, 256 MB video card configuration.

    I have a little problem with it and would appreciate an outside opinion on this:

    Yesterday, I opened my 8900 XPS in order to add an additional HARD drive. In the process, I noticed that the hypothesis of fan 960 GTX is pressing firmly against the front, USB 3.0 cable, to the point of the plug is slightly flexed. In addition, the cable is slightly clogging the fan 960 GTX. I was a little displeased with this, as it's clearly inappropriate cable routing. Apart from that, all other cables inside the XPS 8900 are very neatly.

    I removed the GTX 960 (this is necessary in order to remove the HDD cage) and then realized that the façade, USB 3.0 cable is too short, and the plug is very wobbly. I tried to pull gently, to detach the cable and find a better way to move. It seems that the USB 3.0 (the light blue plastic part) is not attached to the motherboard! I noticed the fixing clip, and while pressing it, I lifted the CAP slightly (about 3mm). But decision-making would not unclip and come out as well as the plug. Fear of bending a PIN, I pushed the plug in and gave up trying to detach. Then, I installed the HARD drive and put everything back in, as it was.

    The computer works well. The two façades USB work normally (tested with an external drive USB 2.0). Given that I've already migrated all my data and started to use the computer, I would really dislike having to send it back just for that, unless the issue is a threat of failure in the future...

    My questions are the following:

    -Is it normal that the plastic of the motherboard USB 3.0 connector tip is just pressed (not glued to the motherboard)? If this is not the case, do you think that it has to be fixed or if I can live with it?

    -Do you think I can replace the cable USB-Panel, with a more long (is it standard?) and thus solve the problem for good?

    Thank you!!!

    On mine I disconnected the end of the motherboard and routed it bends 90 degrees and below the map.  To do this I had to unplug it and leave that he unplugged while I routed the flat cable.  Then insert a GTX960 and screwed the card holder in.  With the cable stuck the card in the back, I reconnected it into the motherboard.   I agree that this cable is too short.  Unfortunately, the motherboard connector is microscopic pines which are easily bent or broken.  While I did once, I wouldn't do it again.  This isn't a standard 20-pin connector of the Panel before USB3.

    Worse still, the photos DO NOT see THE real manual 8900 service within a 8900.

    The black usb cable into the blue micro 20 connector pins on the motherboard is not displayed in all images.

    What do you suggest I should do?

    How much will it cost in India?  I have no idea. I live in Europe.

    I suggest to ask a repair shop of PC or laptop.

    If the cost of repair is more than 50% of the current value of the laptop, you would be better sourcing of a notebook replacement.

  • Brand new dv6t - install Win 7 Ultimate Clean - error "no hard drive found."

    Just shot my new w dv6t quad edition / WSSD 32 GB out of the box. Goes for a clean format and install of Win 7 Ultimate. Once started from the bootable DVD, I get an error 'no drives were found. No disks/partitions won't show.

    When I start in the existing installation of Win 7 Home Premium and initialize the disc for installation of win 7, there will be readers... but I can not format or delete as a that I need to boot from the disk.

    Seems to me like a driver for the WSSD/HARD disk problem. If someone has encountered this? Any help is very appreciated.

    SOLVED.

    You must open the computer and physically remove the WSSD garbage 32 GB module and disconnect the HDD in RAID mode.  Basically, the computer to get rid of the disease and the setting not save as a standard HARD drive.

    AVOID AT ALL COSTS THIS OPTION!

  • Brand new XPS 8700 desktop black screen

    Hello world. I have a big problem with my desktop computer. I just got my computer a week ago. I had problems with a black screen for a while. I read on the site of dell desktop XPS 8700 computers have problems with this (something on the cube map) and he said that updating the BIOS solves this problem, well it's not.

    My computer wont even start until now. All I get is a black screen. I don't know what else to do.

    Hello

    I called Dell and we arrived after that the problem was a default video card. They helped me very well and tomorrow I should get my new video card.

    Thank you for responding!

  • Brand new XPS 13 "display driver stopped responding and recovered."

    Bought a new model of XPS 13 9350 with windows 10 with touch and just literally there for a day... Love everything except for the message that appears when just surfing... just with the exception of this little message that keeps popping up in the taskbar "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"... screen will go black for a second and work again. It happens like every 10 minutes about... sometimes more... sometimes less...

    I already try to update the latest driver for the graphics card in the Device Manager... What should I do? Have I not a lemon? I call for assistance? Return this laptop? I don't feel that a 1300 laptop should be having this error on the first day only when you surf. Of course, I paid less because of the sale Black Friday... but still, top of the range Dell XPS should not do this...

    Any solution? I love everything on this laptop except for this...

    You need the version 20.19.15.4331.
    Load the page Dell drivers or update in Device Manager.

  • Addition of 16GB to new XPS 8900

    Have not yet opened my new (just released) XPS8900. He ordered withb16GB of RAM and have ordered 16 more RAM for a total of 32 GB.

    My question is do I have to configure the GET first, the computer running, then installing the extra memory?  Or install additional memory before I ask first?

    Thanks in advance!

    It fits very well install RAM after the fact. The BIOS should detect the change and configure it accordingly. Windows can simply display a message about RAM and Windows Experience Index.

  • (Redirected) Brand new XPS 8700 DOA

    Just received via FedEx, out of the box, wired keyboard/mouse, monitor, then power cord. Tried to power on and nothing. Fan starts and stops and the system goes into a loop, trying to power. Called support (you must be kidding me!) had to do the online chat to get the return authorization. Got the UPS label, he has attached to the box and shipped this puppy in return. I've been a user of Dell since 1990-1991 and that you have upgraded to new systems, every 3 to 4 years. Never again.
