• Dell Dimension E521 Windows Vista Home Premium does not start

  My machine is more initializing. Nothing appears on the video monitor!

  The lights at the front (1, 2, 3, 4, and sighted business disc for HD and DVD players) flash as if it is starting.

  I put in the DVD Dell to reinstall Vista, without any difference.

  Any suggestions?

  
  

• Dell Dimension E521 starts and stops on its own at random times... a lot of attempts to repair/restore without success! What's next!

  Well, it's a bit of a long story, so I'll try to make it as short and easy as possible.

  My grandmother had the Dell Dimension E521 for some time in December of ' 06.  She had filled the C: drive with a bunch of junk and mandated the bureau with many useless shortcuts.  Later in November 10, she told me he had begun to stop and start on his own time at random, so I tried to do what I could with antivirus scan (AVG Free Edition), remove applications and unnecessary programs and try to demand for system recovery short.  While that makes the computer run faster, it still started and closed on itself.  His house has only the dial-up connection (which is almost impossible to update anything), so I brought it to my house for the best connection around 01/01/11 (9 days ago).

  I could update the AVG Free Edition and Windows updates, and it found and cleared, a Trojan Virus.  The Dell still started and shut down on its own.  My next step was to use the disc re - install for Vista Home Basic 32-bit.  He old programs saved in a folder "Windows.old" on the C: drive and completely re-installed everything back to the original.  After I checked in the "Windows.old" folder and recorded something she didn't lose (such as images and videos), I deleted as much as I could out of it.  The only thing I could not remove from it was 4 'driver files '.  For a while the computer trying to run 'chkdsk' on its own seizure began, but froze in the middle of it.  He finally ended the 'chkdsk' once and didn't try again since.  It downloaded and installed updates Windows of 100 or more on its own as well.

  After all, it still does the same thing he has with housing starts and shut downs.  The closure of downs occur not just in the middle of the execution of a given program; they occur at any time at random, even if I use the computer in safe mode.  She always goes through the whole stops the process with the "logging off" and "closing" legends, it is not as if the electric system is down.  The start-up occur randomly as well, even if a stop is purposely through the Start Menu or hold down the power button.  Sometimes, he's trying to start and shut down on its own several times without fully load.

  Again, sorry this is so long, but I would like to know if there is anything that can be done to get this thing to CUT IT OUT because my grandmother wants as his computer back!

• Dell Dimension E521 Setup - locked out of installation, do not know how to reset the password

  Hello. I have a problem with my Dell Dimension E521.

  On the Setup screen when I press F2, I added an administrator password in the security field.

  I thought I knew the password, as I had written somewhere, but I can't.

  I don't know how to reset the password - it told me to remove the admin password by entering a blank password in the new and confirm

  password, but it won't let me move down.

  Can someone give me directions as to how can I reset my password without having to re - install my OS again? Thank you.

  Model: Dell Dimension E521

  RAM: 2 GB

  Model and the speed of the processor: AMD Athlon Dual Core 2 GHz

  OS: Microsoft Windows Vista - Home premium (32 Bit edition), service pack 1

  Locate the password jumper 2 pins (PSWD) on the system board and remove the jumper to clear the password.

• Dimension E521, windows resume loader, USB keyboard does not?

  I have a Dimension E521. When it starts up (windows 7 32 bit) happens to "resume the windows loader. I can't choose option I have a USB keyboard that does not start. Why is there no PS/2 port on the back of my office?

  Thank you
  Jill

  PS/2 ports have gone in the way of the dodo bird.

  Have you had a power failure or not stop correctly?

  Have you tried another USB port at the back of the Tower?

  Try to restart, and then press F2 before Windows starts to load to open the BIOS Setup. Search all the USB settings and make sure that they are all enabled. Save the changes before you exit the installer and see if you can deal with the problem of charger now.

  If this does not work, try this:

  1. If you can enter the BIOS setup by pressing F2, copy all the current BIOS settings
  2. Power off, unplug
  3. Power button press / hold for about 15 seconds
  4. Open the case and remove the motherboard battery
  5. Power button press / hold for about 30 seconds
  6. Replace the battery (use a new if it is old)
  7. Case of close and reboot and see if you can solve the problem of charger now

• (Redirected) For Dell Dimension 5150 Windows 10 upgrade: "there are no supported network devices.

  Hello world

  I have run the applet get Windows 10 and get the message: "there are no supported network devices.

  I use the router directly from the ethernet port, so it seems that the Dell 5150 driver for this is not Windows compatible 10, which is disappointing.

  Does anyone have a solution to this, or I'll have to just buying another cheap network card?

  Thanks in advance,

• Block POWER + video card Upgrade - Dell Dimension e521

  I was thinking about upgrading my video card to a BFG 8800 GT OC

  To do this, he said that I need a minimum of a 425W PSU, so I was thinking a CoolerMaster Extreme Power 500w

  But I read everywhere and I saw a few comments from people on how Dell uses not normal size of power supply, I have a problem installing this power supply? In addition, this video card would be great to fit in all this?

  Thanks for your help :)

• Dell Dimension 4600 Multi Media controller driver for windows 7

  Anyone know where I can get the driver windows 7 for the multimedia audio controller in a Dell dimension 4600 or at least tell me what I could find because it seems that the sound card is working but there is no driver for the multimedia audio controller so I have no sound, I asked dell and they couldn't help me.  I'd appreciate any help I can get.

  Here are the drivers for Windows 7 (x 32) for his Creative Labs SB0200 card.

  docs.google.com/.../Edit

  (1) extract the files from the link above

  (2) go to the Device Manager

  (3) right click on the sound card with drivers and select update drivers missing

  (4) find the drivers in the folder named "Creative SB Live! Series (WDM).

  (5) given that these were built for XP or 2000, you must ignore the warning messages.

  (6) TADAA!

  One problem is that I can't find the driver for the MIDI port or whatever.

  Not a problem because I don't need it and no other bad noticeable.

  Private message me if you need help.

• Dell Dimension does not start in Vista after upgrade

  A friend had a Dell Dimension E521 that won't start - has the missing file system\hal.dll.

  As there was nothing on this computer, he needed, I rebuilt it install a new copy of Windows XP, used the upgrade disc closed for upgrade to Vista and ensured everything in its original package has been installed. Let him install the Windows updates at night and in the morning, after a reboot it indicated that there is an update available. I've updated that and restarted and he said there are only four more updates that memory on the video card. I've updated those, but now it does not start at the top.

  I'm going through the boot process, but as soon as it is the screen black with the Microsoft Corporation and the (green?) bar he starts moving forward a very small amount, and then restarts. It comes up with the selection of Windows startup screen and I tried the secure boot and last good Configuration known without result.

  I tried the original XP disc to do a repair, but this doesn't seem to work with Vista?

  How can I recover a work computer or do I have to reinstall again?

  Thanks for any help, that all the world can offer.

  If you have installed Windows Vista good the first time that the hard drive should be fine however I would suggest running the Dell diagnostics just to be safe. To do this follow the instructions on page 405 of this document and perform extensive tests.

• Dell Dimension 2400 will not meet the key USB WIFI Netgear

  Dell Dimension 2400 Windows XP.

  Trying to get my old Dell back in action, but I ran into a problem. NO INTERNET.

  I have the WIFI in my house but I can't connect wirelessly with the desktop computer.

  I have a NetGear Wireless - N Dual Band, but dell WNDA3100 USB won't pick it up. The flash player is on, but it will not install the new software. It is said there was a problem and it probably won't work correctly.

  Any ideas? Thank you!

  first go to the device driver and uninstall everything dealing with netgear.

  also if it is listed in Add/Remove to uninstall and restart.

  https://www.Google.com/#q=NETGEAR+Wireless+n+dual+band+WNDA3100+USB+XP+installation+guide+and+software

  above is a search page with instructions for installing xp

  you have version 1 or 2?

  just a thought you have wireless zero config service started/automatic services?

  After all your updates should be installed which will disable the autorun, so that when you insert a usb key, nothing will happen until you go to my computer and click on the device to open it, this was done so that you would have a chance to scan a usb usb being one of the fastest ways to spread a virus If she had previously plugged into an infected pc.
