Dell Dimension 5250 switch to the USB 3.0 adapter pci?

I've read elsewhere that it IS possible to upgrade the PCI to usb 3.0 on the Dell Dimension 5250, but there is no interest to do as the CPU cannot handle the increased speed.  Is this correct?  If this is the case, what are the other recommended upgrades (the minimum I have to do) you need to get usb 3.0 speeds?

Thanks for any help/recommendations.

jennyfromdablock

P.S. I only need 1 port usb 3.0, the next card would be appropriate (it has 2 ports) and not the 4 card port recommended you?  It's $10 cheaper, and if it will do the job, then, I would be happy to save money.

Thank you

Yes, the Anker PCI-E USB 3.0 2 Port Express Card, with 1 USB 3.0 port, should work fine, but you'll need a power connector Molex 4 pin for the card.

    Check the BIOS for hard drive setting.

    Make sure that you do not connect the drive to a SATA/RAID port.

    Old IDE drives - check the jumper on the drive (use "Cable Select" as a starting point), the BIOS must also be set in legacy/compatibility/IDE mode. Note: If you currently use the AHCI mode, then switch to IDE mode may cause Windows to boot.

  • Use of the USB to Ethernet adapter to find cRIO Systems

    Hi all

    I'm trying to connect to one OR cRIO-9066 to my laptop using USB-to-Ethernet adapter.  But I have a problem with it; Find VI systems shows no results unlike the direct connection via the ethernet port on the laptop.  I wish that the connection of the USB-to-Ethernet adapter to support this feature as well.  I would like to know if somebody did, and I hope a solution to this.

    Here's my setup. I bought the adapter USB-to-Ethernet of RadioShack. I connect the adapter to a USB port on my laptop. The adapter is the female Ethernet port on the other end. I directly connect cRIO and the adapter using a crossover ethernet cable. What is of note is that ethernet connection works.  I can specify the IP address of the cRIO then I can communicate with crio in the same configuration. However, finding systems VI cannot find any system.  LabVIEW 2015, is what I use.

    Instead of using the adapter, if I use a direct connection via the ethernet port on the laptop, find systems VI works fine.

    Any help or suggestion is appreciated.

    Thank you in advance.

    After all, my conclusion to this problem has been the model of Ethernet USB card I was using was not good.

    Gigaware USB to adapter Ethernet (from Radio Shack) was working not with find systems VI on my environment even though it is still able to connect to CRIO if I know the IP address. I even had the other, but the result was the same.  The solution for me was to use another model of the BADGE, which is NS-PU98505. It is cheaper, but has worked with find systems VI.

    I don't know what's behind the different behaviour, but the issue is resolved on my end for now.

    Thank you all for all the tips and ideas. Congratulations to all!

    What's wrong?!? Someone please help.

    Thank you!

    I remember that when I tried to install the driver, there's a message that says that it is said that it is not supported.  I don't know if I reinstalled the older operating system and then the new driver and vista or if there was a button to install the driver, even though it was not taken in charge.  Most likely, I installed the driver on the old XP operating system and then applied the upgrade to Vista. I always run a clean install to clean any spyware etc. The driver supports the X 9 live is what it takes. Use Vista driver is already installed.  I plan to upgrade to windows 7 in January and display the results.

  • Don't switch off the USB cable for HP 5520

    During the installation of my new HP5520 I have connected the USB cable between the printer and my desktop PC, and then I forgot to unplug again before installing the software from the disc.  Does it matter?

    Hello

    It might affect the installation of the printer, but if you don't see any effect, you should not have problems.

  • Reference Audio Dell - will automatically switch on the headphones when you plug them.

    XPS 9350 - 10 Windows

    Can I do Audio Dell (or something) automatically route the sounds of my helmet when I plug them?  I saw no option in the Audio from Dell menu to toggle this option.

    I do a bit of work to the library of my school, which means I have to be quiet.

    The problem is that when I plug my headphones, I have to wait for Dell Audio for pop - up and then I have to confirm my selection of "headphones with microphone" above all sound will go to them.  Then only will be moving to my helmet.  While I do this, my computer starts hanging and beep all the recent notifications for anyone nearby to hear, until I do the confirmation.

    To make things worse, if I plug my headphones on the Windows lock screen, and then log in, Dell Audio pop up just never came up. However, I still give it Windows notification Center make me notice, but it is non-interactive.  Then I have to unplug the headphones, expect that all of the alerts saying I have disconnected something go, then plug the new.  If I wait more for alerts clear selection Windows Audio Dell don't is not loading.  Once again, beeps and dings are once I have connect and do all this.

    Of course, it's just as much I na not mute until I closed the lid, the last time that I used it.

    SOLUTION: the context menu is not clear.

    If you check the option at the bottom telling not to appear whenever something is plugged in, it will automate just about whether you connect (at least I can assure you that for "headphones with microphone").

    The way that the radio button is made, simply looks like it's supposed to just disable the pop up and nothing more.

  • Can I put Windows 7 on a Dell Dimension 4600?

    Hello

    I have a 6 years old Dell Dimension 4600 PC with the following specifications:

    • Processor Pentium 4 3.0Ghz
    • 1 GB OF RAM
    • nVidia Geforce FX5200 128 MB graphics card
    • Windows XP Home Edition
    I expect to make a custom on this old PC Setup, but my problems are with the drivers.
    I recently used the special Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, which tells me that I meet all of the minimum requirements, and of course programs such as Outlook Express will not available on Windows 7.
    In the middle of this report is a link to the Dell (Windows 7 section) website where they tell me to go learn more about compatibility. When I do click on this site and then click on hardware compatibility, it brings me to the next page: http://support.euro.dell.com/support/topics/topic.aspx/emea/shared/support/dsn/en/document?c=uk&docid=360683&l=en&s=gen
    The page says there is apparently only ONE socket support Dell Dimension model which can be improved on the range Dimension, covering a good 30-50 models. I'm sure that this is due to support driver from Dell, which is absolutely horrendous. The drivers on the site range Dell Web from 2004 to 2007 (for the only critical updates), for my model. The only OS supported on the site it is XP. Research on the Web sites of manufacturers of drivers, I find that the newer drivers are available for my hardware, more compatible with Vista. Do I have the old OEM from Dell specific drivers or the drivers provided by manufacturers! Can I REALLY move to Windows 7! Dell said it is not supported (and is fast enough to give me a link telling me to buy a new PC), but I have friends who have installed on other Dimensions of Dell old where it worked a treat. I don't want to lose £70 on a BONE that may not work and may leave me without a usable PC!
    What should I do!

    Hi Fred

    Not taken in charge and is not possible are 2 different things.

    How you proceed depends on how comfortable you are troubleshooting. It is very likely that you will end up you are looking for a few drivers for hardware on the sites of manufacturers or possibly replace certain hardware devices that are simply too old to work.

    Windows 7 includes many of the compatibility of the tools that can help when you use the devices more old drivers/hardware and software troubleshooting.

    If the Upgrade Advisor did not identify hard incompatible devices, I would say you should go try before the upgrade. Make sure you have all the latest drivers for the hardware installed and available on external media.

  • Replacement of a card mother Dell Dimension 3000 with a Dimension 4600 motherboard

    Recently I replaced my processor in my Dell Dimension 3000, however, at the start he always tells me that the processer is not supported by the Bios, so I still have to press F1 to start upward. I heard you can counter this is replacing the Board with a Board of a Dimension 4600 however, I know not what condition the Board of Directors must be in. Can I replace it with a Board of direct administration of a Dimension 4600 or what I need to get a referbished or the new Board of Directors?

    scprokop

    A work of a Dimension 4600 motherboard can be used, provided it is in a usable state.

    As the Dimension 4600 is obsolete for many years, I doubt there is very no new motherboards available, only the so-called "renovated" boards, which are 'pull system '.
