Dell Dimension 2350 HDD Upgrade

Hi people,

First post here, so go easy on me!

My machine, as indicated above, has the original 60 GB hard disk (delivered in January 2003), and everything is OK.  However, one of my friends bought a Hitachi 7K 160 160 GB 3.5 sister "PATA hard drive internal to his pc, which is longer needed.  This corresponds to the element.  Can I use it on my D2350?  Updates only that I did to my machine are a RAM (1 GB) and of course XP to SP3.

I have the disks of resettlement came with the pc and reinstall XP drive is SP1.

I read that the 2350's origin comes with 120 GB of disks hard max?  As my BIOS has not been upgraded since, it would be able to handle a capacity of 160 GB?

I'd appreciate it really all advice offered.

Yes, this disc will work in your 2350. You will need support to keep the player, which can be easily found by searching online.

  • No sound after reformatting on Dell Dimension 2350 XP SP3

    Only, I went to read an mp3 file after reformatting last week and got this: "Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device". My multimedia audio controller, Device Manager has a yellow question mark and a code 28 by the bit of General properties. It's a Dell Dimension 2350 with SP3. Just let the Hardware Wizard find the driver for me?

    Click on the link above, all your system drivers are here.

    Expand the Audio, there is only one pilot, click on download, note when you save the file in.

    Double-click the file to install the driver.

    Save the link above if you need others.

    If you have the CD Drivers and Utilities provided with the system, the drivers are on the CD.

    Yes, you can leave the installer for you, also Windows Update installs for you, but it is preferable to install yourself, Windows makes mistakes!

  • Installing drivers after Windows XP reinstall on Dell Dimension 2350 with Dell resource disk

    Hi all

    Recently, I did a clean reinstall of Windows XP (home edition) on my Dell Dimension 2350. Everything went well. Now, I need to install the appropriate drivers. I have the Dell resource disk and this is where the problem starts.
    As noted elsewhere, after reinstallation of that display on the screen of the disk resource is as it is in 'Safe Mode '. I was aware of this. Therefore, the search criteria screen resources drive was a little bigger than the screen of the monitor. I managed to its size to fit the screen, but this really isn't the problem, is the following: the search criteria options I have in the dropdown menus (on screen) are the following:

    System model: all, DXC061, DXP0G1 Dimension, Dimension E521, DM061, Dimension C521, XPS710 (who, if necessary, to choose?)

    Operating system: (I think I got this one) all, Windows XP

    Topic: (maybe this one too), Dell Diagnostics, Diagnostics, drivers, Applications, utilities

    For the life of me I can't understand the correct drivers, I am to install *. Windows XP appears in the menu of the operating system. I know enough about the order of installation, but as I said, I'm a little confused on the selection of the drivers from the disc. This computer is not connected to the internet at the moment so I can't download and use any kind of pilot program. Other research have confused me more far and provided no precise answer to this problem.
    If anyone can enlighten me on the solution step by step to this (I think "Dell resource disk for Dummies"), I would be extremely grateful.

    Thank you all!

    * If it will help, I went in (with "Show Hidden Files" active) Device Manager and it shows (with the yellow question mark) are:
    Other devices: Ethernet Controller, multimedia Audio Controller, video controller (VGA Compatible).

      

    You need, in the order of installation:

    1. Driver Chipset
    2. Video driver (depends on what video card)
    3. Audio driver
    4. Network driver (depends on who you are)
    5. Modem driver, if you are using a modem

    Go to the Support page and put in your Service tag. He expected to give you the drivers you need. You can download them to any PC and copy it to a USB key for installation on 2350.

    You only need applications, if you actually use them (for example, Roxio, Jasc Paintshop, etc.).

    Then install your antiviral software and get in line on the Microsoft Update site for all patches and updates.

    Please keep in mind that XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, and they stopped release of the security fixes for XP and IE9, more than 1 year. So they're all two full of security holes and put your data personal in danger.

  • Dell Dimension 9200 MAX UPGRADE

    As you can tell a Dell Dimension 9200 is a bit old this generation of computers, but I want max to upgrade my PC and my calculations, when I update this baby to the max, it could perhaps better than PCs today, so most important first question:

    1: can I upgrade my power supply? My current diet only 350w, I am able to pass this to 500w by installing a new? Is it possible to install a new power supply on my PC again? If so, which company is the most reliable?

    Thank you for your help, once this question is answered, I think my PC will be a match munching PC

    Azee123

    Yes, the power supply can be improved to a 500w unit +.

    The Dimension 9200 does not use an exclusive power of Dell, you can install most power supply ATX with a power connector 24 pin or 20 + 4 pin main motherboard and this can be purchased in most local computer stores, or online.

    The 9200 has a rear panel open, a diet with or without the on/off switch can be installed.

    Note: You need a PSU with six SATA power connectors.

    When you buy a power supply, check the manufacturer's warranty, plus better, look for one with a minimum of three years.  Personally, I prefer the Corsair PSU.

  • Dell Dimension 8200 Memory Upgrade after upgrade the processor

    Hello

    I have a Dell Dimension 8200 (shipping date is 01/05/2002) which came with a FSB of 400. I've recently updated the its origianl 1.8 GHz a 2.4 GHz processor.  I understand that the 8200 with a FSB of 400 can use 800-40ns or 800-45ns memory sticks (I think that mine came with 800-45).  I intend to upgrade memory 1 GB to 4 X 512 (2GB), I installed (4 X 256).  My question is when I went to buy the 4 X 512 memory, said the pub, it could be used in a 8200 with a 2.1 GHz CPU or less.  I have a 2.4 GHz chip. Is that going to be a problem?

    Rbatleman,

    Great question!  When the Dimension 8200 was released the processor speed max was 2.1 ghz (probably why the memory you were viewing had this label).   We have updated later to the processor 2.4 ghz when it was available.  The two units came with the PC800-45 (400 mhz) memory, you should run into any problems with this memory.  Keep in mind the system supports only the RIMM modules that contain devices memory of 4, 8 or 16.  I hope this helps!

    Welcome to the community.

    Please let me know the specification of the new memory sticks. If you bought this online store, please give the link.

    It's starting with the old memory stick?

    If it is booting with the old memory stick, please update the BIOS by clicking on the link below:

  • Dell dimension e520 Motherboard upgrade

    Hi, I have a Dell Dimension E520 and I was wondering if it takes care of all new mothers of dell. Thanks for your help.

    hunterp15

    There is no motherboards, other than a Dell e520 OEM motherboard that will fit the owner e520 EOL BTX chassis, or y at - it available BTX retail motherboards.

    The Dimension e520 is the latest model of this series, Dell made.

    Only 65 processors with 800 or 1066fsb will work with the E-520.

    The Q6700 should work, but before installing the processor, make sure you have BIOS version 2.2.1 [or more] installed, when additional CPU support has been added.

  • Dell dimension e510 CPU upgrade

    Almost 2 years ago, I bought a dell dimension e510 with the pentium d 820 installed processor desktop computer but now I want to put the best processor in it it may take. I did some research and discovered it might support only the pentium d, pentium 4 hyperthreading w and that the pentium d 960 was supposed to be the best pentium d processor available. I bought a

    now heres where the problem begins: I put it in (radiator and all), but when I plugged it in, the power of computers led turns orange and nothing happens; No start, display, diagnostic lights or a message saying incompatible processor. I put the back of 820 to and it worked fine but the same 960 post custom. I thought that maybe the processor could be bad, so I sent it back, but the seller (seller ebay w / 99% positive feedback) says that it worked fine when he tested and it sends to me.

    I would like to know if anyone knows why it might not work, I need a different version of the card mother e510, make, it would be inconsistent, or I need to do something special (like asking dell for permission?)

    According to everest, my motherboard is 0HJ054, a07 bios revision. any ideas?


  • Dell Dimension C521 CPU Upgrade

    Hi all. I have a Dimension C521 (feat) and I would like my CPU from a AMD Sempron (TM) Processor 3400 + ~1.8GHz to an AMD Athlon 64 X 2 6000 3.0 GHz 2 MB socket AM2 89W ADA6000IAA6CZ. But I'm not sure about a few things, that's why I'm here. I would like to know:

    • If the AMD Athlon 64 6000 works with my computer of x 2
    • What is the recommended BIOS
    • If the fan the C521 comes with is good enough to keep it cool
    • If a 280W 955.39BTU / h Maximum PSU is fine
    • If you have any questions = D

    The Athlon 64 X 2 6000 + 3.0 Ghz, 89W Windsor, will work.
