  I have 4 dell dimension 5150's and you want to update all the 4 fastest possible CPU for this old of a computer.

  Would an Intel Pentium D 945 3.4 work GHz LGA 775 CPU SL9QQ 4 M/800 Presler Dual Core?

  They now have PROCESSORS, 3.06, 524, 1 MB, PENTIUM 4 PRESCOTT DT, G1

  Or what is the best I could get in these?

  I have windows 7 and hoping to be able to get up to 10 but the 524 is not compatible.

  The Pentium D945 is the maximum that can be used in the Dimension 5150/E510.

  However, if you don't have motherboard 0HJ054 installed and upgrade the processor on most other motherboards will rise a 'incompatible CPU"at startup and need to press F1

  The Dimension 5150/E510 does not support all of the processors Pentium G20xx series, these require a different motherboard and socket.
  .
  The motherboard for the Dimension 5150/E510 has a Socket LGA 775 and can't stand not all processors Core 2 Duo/Core 2 Quad, single Socket LGA 775, P4 and Pentium D can be used.

  The Pentium D945 is the maximum that can be used in these models.

  Before upgrading the processor, make sure you have the latest version of the BIOS installed.

• Dimension 5150 CPU upgrade options

  Hello

  I bought my Dimension 5150 almost 2 years ago. It uses a Pentium D 2.8 Ghz and his mother is an Intel i954G using socket LGA 775. I would like to know what are my options to upgrade CPU. If it is still possible to upgrade my CPU.

  I did some research and saw that this motherboard supports CPU C2D. Responses of the other forums of stress that the upgrade of processor is impossible because Dell locks the mobo/bios, it is impossible to upgrade (it will never recognize the new processor). It's a shame if I can't upgrade my CPU because the rest is pretty decent. I have 3 GB of RAM and a HD3850.

  If possible, Dell only updated for the customer? And what is the best processor I can get which is supported by this mobo?

  Thank you.

  EDIT: I double checked and it seems that there are a lot of confusion if my Board can support a C2D even if it's a mobo socket LGA775. List of site Intels C2D's as usable processor Intel 945 G express boards. BTW, I improved my diet to a 460 Watt cooler master.

• 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

  Here is the owner's manual, if it'll help - ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_dimension_desktops/dimension-c521_owner ' s%20manual_en-us.pdf

  Also, if I had to update my GPU, what would you recommend?

  xXEblisXx

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

  Before installing the processor, make sure you have the latest version of the BIOS version installed 1.1.11, with BIOS version 1.1.4 support AMD has been added.

  The default fan and the PSU should be fine.

• Dell Dimension E520 CPU Upgrade

  Hi, I upgraded my CPU because it is too slow, and that I am I going to pay $ 80 instead of the usual price of $250. I would like to know if they are compatible with my system. All the I know is that they have the same type of socket (LGA 775). Here is the link: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115060CVF

  Here's my current computer specs: 4 GB RAM DDR2 1 GB GDDR5 128 bit AMD video card, 1.86Ghz Intel core 2 duo CPU (valued at 3.33 Ghz) and a 305 power w.

  If I need to change the power supply, I would love to know because I have one here that's 750w I could also use. Thank you.

  Daren

  * P.S: I know I need to update my BIOS because I am currently at version 2.2.1 and the most recent is 2.2.4 (or something like that) should I just brings it to someone to do it for me, or is it easy to update? I don't know where to find them, so if someone could possibly direct me, I BIOS Phoenix technologies.

  Thanks a lot again!

  DarenDussault

  The Core 2 Quad Q9505 Yorkfield 2.83 GHz LGA775 95W shown in your link is not compatible with the e520.

  All Socket LGA 775 processors, listed HERE are compatible.

  There should be no need to improve the power supply for a processor upgrade.

• Dell Dimension 5150 - WinXP error 0 x 00000024 STOP

  I wrote this email to someone, however, received no response, so am using Microsoft Answers.
  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

  Thanyou,

  Anil

  Dear Dan,

  First of all, my name is Anil and I found your E-mail address when searching about my problem on some Forums.

  Last night, my computer was working fine. Really flawless. I use a Dell Dimension 5150 running Windows XP.

  However, when booting this morning, I received the error STOP 0 x 00000024 and with something to do with CHDSK / F.

  I couldn't do anything, like when I tried to boot my PC in safe, I got the same blue screen with the error.

  Therefore, after reseaching, I found two possible solutions.

  The first is to use the WinXP disc, however, my PC came with Windows XP already installed, I therefore had no disc.

  The second, I found the Forum even where I found your Email address, is to use a program called Bart PE Builder.

  I used Labtop this and this to burn the program to a CD.

  I only have a cause for concern, and it is, I have about 30GBs of value of music on my computer that I would be afraid to lose.

  My question is, if I run PE Builder from Bart, my music will be lost?

  And that goes for other files and documents on my computer (anything illegal, don't worry; (P)

  Thank you

  Anil

  Looks like Bart's not see anything except himself and that might be because it takes the controller drivers that are added. The easy way to find out is to add drivers to the image of your Bart controller and then start with this new CD. IIRC, he must put the drivers in a certain directory. Site Web de Bart, user forums or Google will tell you how. I don't use often Bart (preferring Knoppix) so know not glib. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Dell Dimension 5150 do not start LED logo on 123 + progress bar is stuck at 5% no beeps

  My old Dell Dimension 5150 has sometimes suffered from crashes during startup for quite awhile, but it now appears permanent.

  The symptom is the logo dell appears, but the startup progress bar stops at 5%, diagnosis LED 1,2 & 3 are stable on, power light is green fixed, no beeps, no response to the keys.

  In the past disconnecting the cable for 5 minutes, which gives all the internal connectors a re-allocation of places, you try to start again seemed to do the trick, but no more.

  Any suggestions where to look?

  No such thing as PC2 4300 except for sellers who are less honest.

  http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/compatible-upgrade-for/Dell/dimension-5100

  

  PC2 4200 is too slow

  PC2 5300 5 5 5 12 works fine. Suppliers must match for speed and the CASE.

  Blockages can be feed if it isn't certified EPS12v PFC.

  Minimum recommended is CS750M Corsair.

  http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/dimension-5100/CT667636

  Supplies are not units of 12 v x watts.

  You need 150W on the 3.3v 5v Rails and 15-20w on the + 5VSB rail.

  RAM RAM may NOT BE ECC or buffered or Registerd HIGH density AMD.  Must be LOW DENSITY INTEL Compatible ram.

  RAM cannot BE QUADRI ROWS can operate 2R and 1R, but you can NOT MIX the ranks.  They must all be single or dual rank.

• Dell Dimension 5150 won t boot

  Hey guys! My Dell Dimension 5150/510 running Windows XP Home Edition SP3 won't boot for some reason any. Whenever I press the power button the power button just blinks and won't turn on. Please help as soon as POSSIBLE. Thank you! If you can do it in a video or BIC please :(

  md5diablo

  All that, suggest a power failure, first replace the PSU with a unit of work that is 'known', to see if that makes a difference.

  5150/E510 systems don't use exclusive Dell power supplies, you can install a generic ATX power supplies with either a power connector 24 pin or 20 + 4 pin main motherboard.

  Like the 5150/E510 has a rear panel open, a diet with or without the on/off switch can be used and can be purchased in most local computer stores or online.

  Need a power supply with two SATA power connectors.

  Mainly interested in CPU upgrade at this time. I have download CPU - Z to determine my profile and I provide this stitched-together set screenshots of this program:

  

  I just put the CPU of my Dimension 5150 friend successfully. I would only reproduce on my 2400 - a much smaller machine. This computer is mainly used for the casual internet browsing, and sometimes I watch a Youtube video. The only programs that really tax the CPU are my disk defragmentation and the program CCleaner. When I have a great session of internet browsing of 100 + tabs, the CPU also emerged at this time here.

  I want to the maximum this computer using cheap parts upgrades, that I can buy it on eBay. On my 5150 friend, I bought a processor upgrade for $5 delivered and a thermal paste to ebay for 80 cents. I wouldn't mind buying a cheap video card and processor to upgrade this old workhorse

• 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!
