• Dimension 9200 / XPS 410 Wireless connection?

  Hello, I've tried a search in order to answer to this question, but could not find a search option. In any case, I have a Dell XPS 410. He was a great PC. Year at this same time last burned capacitors on the motherboard and I had to have someone to replace me. During the replacement of the part, I also improved for Windows 7. Now, it's really nice. My question is: since my XPS 410 has not been implemented for wireless and has no wireless card, what are the best options for me to put this PC on a network home in another area of my house? I would use it in my office, away from the cable modem and the wireless router that is running on the network home right now. It's a wireless router Netgear N600 I want to connect with, and wonder; do I need a wireless card installed on the motherboard, or in my quest for answers, I noticed the USB wireless adapters. And I just want to know which would be best for me in terms of distance/reception, etc.

  Suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you in advance;

• The Dell Dimension 9200 graphics card upgrade

  I am looking to update my graphics card on a Dell Dimension 9200 and I was wondering if the Nvidia GeForce GT 430 would work with the pc, I have a Nvidia 7900 gt. I am open to both recommendations.

  My current pc features, Windows 8 version Preview (upgrade to windows 8 Pro in a few days), 4 GB of ram, intel dual core 2.13 ghz.

  Hi gaz492,

  The graphics card you have mentioned should work on the Dimension 9200.

  Food that has been delivered with the computer is 375W which is more than the bloc power to the graphics card. Details of the graphics card: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-430/specifications

  In addition, providing the link for the specifications of the computer:

  NOTE from the ADMIN: Broken link has been removed from this post by Dell >

  Add the link to the manual for Dimension 9200, which is also known as the XPS 410:

  There are a lot of compatible adapters to the computer: here is a list of the latest graphics cards that run on the desktop computer:

  1. nVidia GeForce GT 440.
  2. ATI Radeon HD 6570.
  3. ATI Radeon HD 6670 (requires minimum 400W).
  4. ATI Radeon HD 7750 (requires minimum 400W).

  Usually if the video card is updated on the computer, you must upgrade the power too as the power supply on this computer is 375W.

  Answer please if you have any other questions.

• 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 9200

  Hello

  Can someone tell me what ram I need for a dell dimension 9200 please. I need to replace it, but read that someone used 8 GB and it works fine. Dell has the max is 4gb.please help.

  mandymoped

  Does anyone know if 8 GB will work with 32-bit vista please

  mandymoped

  When you have a 32-bit system, it does not recognize the 8 GB memory, 3±gb, is a 32-bit system can address.

  Basically, what this means, is so that you can install 8 GB of memory in the system, the reason for which it will be not recognized, is mainly due to 32-bit processors and 32-bit memory address limitations on applications.

  64-bit processors & operating systems will recognize the limit of 32-bit.

• CPU upgrade Dell dimension 9200 core 2 duo 2.4 Ghz processor

  I was wondering if someone could help me.  I know that it is not supported by dell, but I want to upgrade my processor at the maximum speed supported by my Dimension 9200... I currently have a 2.4 Ghz cpu and bought an E8500 3.16 Ghz, which is NOT compatible... I was wondering if I could go with an E7300 2.66, I I think the problem is with the speed of the bus--the E6600 and E7300 are the two 1066 Mhz but the E8500 and E8600 1333 Mhz.

  Can anyone confirm that the E7300 2.66 / 1066 Mhz is compatible...?  Thank you.

  Steinomite

  OK so just to confirm that I will buy the CPU... I can get a core 2 duo for a core 2 Quad... as long as I get a Q6700 2.66 GHz... correct? for a Dimension 9200... Thank you.

  Yes, the XPS 410/9200 will take up to Q6700, processors FSB 1066.

• 2 TB hard drive for Dell Dimension 9200

  I have a 3 years Dimension 9200 desktop with 2 X 160 GB hard drives configured as a RAID 320 array.  I want to move to a single 2 TB hard and I was wondering if someone could advise me if a Seagate Barracuda XT ST32000641AS - buffer of disk hard - 2 to - internal - 3.5 "-SATA-600 - 7200 rpm -: 64 MB would do the job."  Otherwise, what is that limit the upgrade?  Is there more to consider otherwise if it is a SATA hard drive? Someone at - it other recommendations? My apologies if this message sounds like it is a novice to updates - the reason is that I am!

  There is no reason from a material point of view that a 2 TB drive would be a problem in the Dimension 9200.  Just considerations common to install a SATA drive.

  You install Windows XP?  If you use the installation disc is a labeled Dell installation disk, SATA drivers can be already integrated in the drive.  Most Windows XP installation diskettes, however, won't these drivers so that the computer hangs during installation, typically have reported that a hard disk cannot be found.  If you find that this is the case, go to the system configuration (F2 during the self-test after starting or restarting the computer), then assign the controller SATA RAID Autodetect / ATA.  This parameter allows to use the native IDE drivers on the Windows XP installation disc.

  If you use Vista, you should have no problem Vista installation media should have native SATA drivers.

  Manuals for your computer are available at support.Dell.com.  The service is currently not available, but should be back before long.

• Upgrade a Dell Dimension 9200 360 GB Raid to 2 TB hard drive

  Hello

  I have tried this modernization and taken on drives of 160 GB 1 and put in disk 2 TB and started the PC and it did not work I tried 2 different locations.

  Can someone help me by telling me what I have to do

  to install disk 2 TB on my Vista PC running.

  I need to install my dell Vista-CD/CD?

  your help will be greatly appreciated

  Assuming you have RAID 0, RAID was probably set up to be the bootable hard drive.  If you delete one of the disks, your RAID will be completely disabled and the computer will not start.  The Dimension 9200 has six SATA ports, two upward by themselves and four other together towards the middle of the main map.  When one of these machines has been ordered with RAID Dell normally placed disks RAID on the third SATA ports and fourth, leaving the first two either vacuum or place the DVD/CD drive on the second of the two ports that reach by themselves next to the power supply.  You should be able to add your Board of 2 TB in two ways; Place it in one of the two ports next to food, or use one of the either the port of fifth or sixth sitting by the RAID.

  Once you have the new drive installed mechanically, restart the computer and use F2 during the self-test to reach the configuration of the system.  This page shows the BIOS how you want the computer to deal with its various devices.  Go to the screen that shows all your SATA devices and make sure that the port with your new hard drive is turned on.  If you skip this step the computer ignores your new drive.  Once you have done this and left the installation of the system, you will need to find the disk on your computer Manager so that you can initialize, partition and format the new drive.  You must configure a partition, even if you want to use the entire disk as one partition before you can format.

  A word of caution: computers some Dell's have some difficulties to accept a hard drive placed on a track numbered higher than the DVD/CD drive.  If you use the ports by the RAID drives and find you have problems using the new hard disk, you will need to plug it into the port of the first or second, depending on which is not used by the DVD/CD drive.  The RAID drives are not normally affected by this problem because they are managed by the ROM of RAID Intel and the computer does not see them as a SATA hard drive.

• Dell Dimension 9200. The orange light flashes. Power disconnect day + this market but stop and it will not work unless that unplugged for a day

  Flashes orange and no lights on the front panel next to the USB ports. (see amber light on motherboard, power button / stop 15 sec + he disappears, but the computer does not start, a few times the fan turned on couple seconds), initially it used to go in the cycle (starts for about 3-5 seconds and stops) several times and the flashing yellow light.

  If I unplug the power cord for a day + and try, it worked, stop and restart immediately worked too but when I shutdown and come after a few hours, it will not start again (power plugged).
  Disconnect the power supply for a day + new and it worked once tried.

  I did the reset by pressing the power button / 15 sec + but no luck. Until a day + unplugged worked so far about three times will try again tomorrow and see what happens if I don't stop the computer ever.

  What a PSU or of the motherboard problem or some other problem? Hope it can be fixed.

  A flashing orange power LED, usually indicates a power supply problem power, given the age of the Dimension 9200, which is highly likely.

  Try to replace the power supply with a power supply of labour "Known", to see if that makes a difference.

  This system 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.

  Otherwise, you can buy a refurbished Dell OEM [Dell P/N KH624] 375w PSU from here:

• 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.

• Dell dimension 9200 2 and lights 1-2-3 short beeps

  Hello

  I have a Dimension 9200 bought around 2008. About 3 weeks, I started having issues getting started, until the computer wouldn't start. Lights said a bad video card, so I took out the card nvidia 260 and put the original video card in and the computer worked OK with the original video card. After another week or two, would not start the computer. I bought a used motherboard and succeeded him. When I turned on the computer, I had 2 short beeps and 1-2-3 on on the Panel. The seller knew what was up, then I sent the motherboard back and got a replacement of the replacement card is in it, but it still gives me 2 short beeps and 1-2-3 is turned on. The power led is constantly Green

  While these beeps and lights mean together?

  Thank you.

  Frank

  Beep codes should be in groups of three, separated by a short break, for example, 1-pause-1-pause-1. So if you hear 2 beeps, who is not useful.

  Version of Windows?

  According to the Manual, G-G-G-(off) means "another failure", and:

  1. Ensure that all disk and CD/DVD cables are properly connected to the system board
  2. If there is an error message on your screen to identify a problem with a device (for example, floppy drive or hard drive), check the device to ensure that it works correctly
  3. If the operating system is trying to boot from a device (for example, floppy drive or hard drive), check the system configuration (see to make sure that the boot sequence is correct for the devices installed on your computer.

  While everything is done, and you are sure that everything is installed properly and cables connected properly, remove the battery from the motherboard and the power button press / hold for about 30 seconds before reinstalling the battery. Then see if it boots with only mouse, screen and keyboard connected.

  If still no go, you will have to strip to a minimum by removing all PCI cards, except known working video card all modules in memory except the one in slot 1, disconnect all drives except boot the disk hard, etc.. Do the "battery thing"and see if it boots now...»

• To clean or not to clean. Dell Dimension 9200 Quad Core

  I use two very old Dimension 9200 Quad Core computers that perform very well indeed and all I want to do.

  I was considering to remove the radiator and the fan to clean any dust and dirt on but don't know if it of a good idea or not. I am aware that if I do that I'll have to remove the old thermal paste and replace it.

  I take an unnecessary risk in doing this, and it is maybe just better left alone?

  If I do what is best to use to remove the former compound and is there a particular type of thermal paste, I have to present a new request?

  With computers that work OK, the best choice is to leave it alone. Look inside to see if any animal hair, dust or dirt accumulated. Clean carefully and leave the single cpu.

• XPS 410 with no sign of life

  I came home today to find my dead XPS 410. I don't get the rotation of the fan, no diagnostic lights, no light on the power switch, nothing. I tested the outlet it is plugged, so this isn't the problem.

  I didn't have problems before, so I really have nothing to do.

  I guess it's food, but really have no idea. Please give me some tips on how to diagnose and how to replace the power supply if this is the question.

  Thanks for any help!

  First check that all the cables for power and data are correctly connected, including the cables on the front panel.

  If you're comfortable working around computers, you can try the following:

  Note: The only 100% POWER supply test method, is to install a known working power.

  Unplug the power cord, hold the power button in for about 15-20 seconds, open the case, disconnect the power connector 24-pin motherboard and jumping the Green wire to one of the black wires, plug in the power cord and the power of the system, if the PSU, case fans and disk hard drive performance then the power supply can be good.

  Note: Do not remove the wires from the plug, use a small piece of wire or a paper clip as a rider.

  Extract supply and the system still does not work, yet once remove the power cord, hold button power in a few seconds to discharge residual power, reconnect the connector 24 pin to the motherboard.

  Remove any PCI video card [as appropriate], memory cards, all the devices, unplug data cables and power to all readers, check that the cable from the front panel is connected to the motherboard, without anything else connected to the system, reconnect the power cable and power the system on.

  If there is no difference in the diagnostic lights, a "Beep" codes and/or the indication of the LED on the power button, it would seem that the motherboard is dead or maybe the processor.

  Note: The good news is, processors lack rarely, being the only method I know to check a processor, install a compatible work PC, or use a known job processing.

  Alternatively, install a food 'known' work to see if that makes a difference.

  XPS410/9200 system does not use an exclusive power of Dell, you can use a standard ATX power supply with either a motherboard 24 power connector pins or 20 + 4 pin main.

  This system has an open rear panel, a power supply with or without the on/off switch can be used.

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

  It is necessary to buy a decent power to most local computer stores and online.

• 3TO hard drive only show 746 GB Dimension 9200

  I have a Dell Dimension 9200, operating under Windows 7 64-bit. I just installed a Toshiba 3 to drive, but Windows sees only 746GB. I can't find the Intel drivers for the chipset to be updated.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you.

  Hi RattyCathy,

  If your chipset does not support the Intel RST, then the solution is to use a SATA controller card. But I would like to visit the Intel site and check that first.
