• Dell Optiplex 7010 USB 3.0

  Hello, I recently bought a Dell Optiplex 7010, i7 with Windows 7.  When I tried to copy on a 250 GB of data on a USB 3.0 external drive, it get a slow speed of 18 MB/s.  It would start at about 22 MB/s but then fall to about 18 MB/s.  I had checked the speed of the hard drive as some people recommended and I shows that I have 7200 rpm on all my hard drives, checked the connections to make sure that I use the blue ports 3.0 and have the latest software updates.

  Can anyone tell if I can get better performance?

  Thank you kindly

• Three monitors on a Del Optiplex 7010

  Hello

  I am trying to install three monitors on my Dell Optiplex 7010. I have the graphics card integrated ports (2xDisplayPort, 1xVGA) with you and use a PCI card with two ports (1xDVI, 1xDisplayPort).

  The three monitors I have are out 2xDVI, 1 output VGA x.

  I have been using some converters for my monitors cable to the DisplayPort Concerto to connect them to the Ports on the PC display.

  Both DisplayPort monitors work very well using the integrated graphics card, but the VGA is not. I was told that it is because of the converters I use.

  I tried several different combinations to make it work with no luck: (.)

  Could anyone suggest how I might get this work or what graphics card I would be able to buy to make this work?

  Thank you

  Hi Shawn,

  I've been in contact with one of your technical guys and we went through a few diagnostic checks to see why I could not as well integrated graphics card and graphics card dedicated to the work. We finally found a solution. Because I use Windows 8.1, I needed to update my BIOS using this link. Once I updated my BIOS, I went into the BIOS and enabled the multi-screen display box. Once we did, and I restarted my PC I managed to connect monitors for two graphics cards internal and dedicated, and they all work.

  Hope this helps someone.

  Kind regards

• Reference Dell optiplex usff 760 nothing appears on the monitor

  Running vista business. Thus, the PC does not display anything. I hooked up another monitor, changed the strings and still nothing. I also checked the original monitor, and is not the problem. Before the problem occurred, I uninstalled nvidia graphic display because the PC has not shown a graphic card (I just tried to clean up the system). Then I tried to install a linksys G wireless adapter. So, that worked, but then the PC got a blue screen, said a memory dump, and then the screen went black. I tried to restart, go to the bios, but nothing will be visible. Any ideas?

  So, it would seem that, as well as the failure of the integrated graphics, you need to replace the motherboard.

• Replacement DVD - Rom is Dell Optiplex 7010

  I wanted to replace my ROM with a DVD burner. This 7010 uses an optical drive that seems to be the size found in laptops. Most of the models of Dell would work for me?

  All SATA optical drives laptop style should be consistent. I have a similar model (OptiPlex SFF 9010) and a standard Blu - ray drive installed without problem.

• How can I connect two screens for MacBook Air (mid-2012)

  I have a macbook air (mid-2012) which, according to apple, can support two external displays.  I have an external display connected to the thunderbolt port, but may not know how to connect to the other?  The mac has only a thunderbolt port?  It has two usb ports.  Is there a thunderbolt display port separator that works with this Apple?  When I look on amazon I see some who make the separation, but they say that they do not work with the Mac?  Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance!

  You can daisy chain a thunderbolt cable from the first screen to a second screen to support both with port of a sudden lightning. Reported here.

  I have an old Dell Optiplex Windows XP on which I have my checkbook in Quicken.   This machine is not and will never be connected to the Internet.  I'm trying to install the 4650 on that software from the CD, but he insists on the final step which is Internet check-in.   What should do?

  It seems that I understood the problem.  I am running XP SP2.  I've upgraded to SP3 and voila!  the printer now works perfectly.  Sorry to have left out retail SP2 when I asked for help, but your help is very appreciated nonetheless.

• Can I connect my MacBook Pro (mid-2012) to the TV 4 K w / a 120 Hz refresh rate?

  Hello!

  I plan on buying a new TV (http://www.vizio.com/m43c1.html) and I was hoping to use to connect my MacBookPro mid-2012 as well. I noticed on the forum and just general Google search, that people were discussing if it would work at 30 Hz or 60 hz - but this TV has a 120 Hz refresh rate. My computer works? And if so, what wiring do I need?

  Uh, did you actually READ the tech specs?

  Entries

  • Ports5 HDMI (3 low; 2 side)
  • · Video HDMI Port 1 SpecUHD @30 Hz, taken supported HDCP 2.2
  • · Video HDMI Port 2 SpecUHD @30 Hz, taken supported HDCP 2.2
  • · Video HDMI Port 3 SpecUHD @30 Hz, taken supported HDCP 2.0
  • · Video of SpecUHD 4 Port HDMI @30 Hz, HDCP 2.0 support
  • · Video HDMI Port SpecUHD @60 Hz, taken 5 supported HDCP 2.2
  • Component1 (side)
  • Composite1 (side)
  • Tuner1 (bottom)
  • Ethernet1 (bottom)
  • Ports1 USB (side

  None of those who accept the entrance faster than 60 Hz. The mentioned number of 120 Hz is an internal refresh rate, not the flow of incoming data.

  But it seems that he would eliminate the flicker of the update of 30 Hz.

  --------

  If you can't use the HDMI, I expect you can get 30 Hz with reliability. If play you with him at length and seriously, maybe 50 Hz. If you also get extremely lucky, maybe 60 Hz.

  But 120? Nope!

  The TV can accept and the Mac won't.

• Mid-2012, Macbook Pro 13 inch corrupt partition map

  I was connect my external hard drive that works 24 Fedora quite frequently beyond a few days. I use the option key during the startup key to choose the operating system. So now my OS X El Capitan only lights because of a partition error. I fixed that with the recovery of the internet, but I am 100% sure that this issue will come soon. Is there any solution for this? What is the cause of this problem?

  MacBook Pro 13 "to mid-2012 Specs:

  OS: El Capitan 10.11.6

  CPU: i5 2.5 GHz

  Storage: 500 GB HARD drive

  Memory: 16 GB (Max update for this model indicated by Apple's 8GB but 3rd third party provider what OWC makes a 16 GB customized for this particular model)

  Any suggestions or comments would be appreciated.

  Is there any solution for this?

  Yes, a replacement hard drive. They are not terribly expensive and replacement is simple.

  What is the cause of this problem?

  Contamination, mechanical damage, age... one of these factors.

• Try to upgrade the video card for an Optiplex 7010

  Hi all

  I searched the forums and found answers, but most are about a year old. I have an Optiplex 7010 with the following configuration:

  G1XNT 1 Hard drive, 1 TB, S3, 7.2 K, 512th, SGT-GRDABP

  VT8FP 2 Dual In-Line Memory Module, 4G, 1600, 256 X 64, 8, 240, 2RX8

  H924H 1 Card, controller, 1394 has Pc Interface, full height, Lsi Logic, unleaded

  VVYN4 1 Graphics card, 1 G, OUGA9, full height, W8

  G8CNY 1 The Assembly, radiator, shroud, Performance, average lap, 95W

  8JY5G 1 ASSEMBLY, CHASSIS, INTEGRATED PWA TOUR, 7010, FPAC

  D7RF6 1 Processor, IVB, I7-3770, 3.4, 77 w, 4 c, E1

  I realize to update my graphics card, I need to upgrade from my diet, and I'm fine with that. What I really struggle with, is what are the specifications of the motherboard on this computer. I would like to know what my bandwiths PCI-E are on it (IE 1 PCI-E X 16 1 PCI-E X 4?)

  Also, I would get the best graphics card I can get to what will fit (for adobe work). I measured the space and wow is not much... most graphics cards are 10 "long, and the space, it seems to me is only a fight 7.5" before I launch into the box for hard drives. I assumed that I could cut out the box and free up space, but thrilled to hear what others use.

  Also, I noticed there are only two PCI-E ports, but the 2nd is probably useless due to how close his pushed to the bottom of the case so I'm stuck with a 1 GPU option.

  Keep all this in mind and without cutting into the hard drive cages, let me know if this could work:

  GPU: MSI N760 ITX gfx card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127772

  Power: 600w http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438014 EVGA

  Don't get me wrong, I would like a more powerful GPU (I push 2 monitors 1920 X 1080), but I don't see how I can get whatever it is also gone...

  Feeding okay? It works for that?

  Thanks for all the help and advice that you have!

  Food looks good.  It is only 5.9 "long which is what you want for your snap custom mount you have on this system.  The MSI card is very short, it looks like a good way too.  Your system has a PCIe X 16 2.0 slot for the video card.  Speeds of the lower PCI X 16 slot is connected to X 4.  With only a 250 watt power, this system is all designed for video cards more if two small.  The 760 GTX is a powerful video card.  I see no need to put a video card premium that costs $500 or more in a Dell system.  To do so, make a custom version of a case of nice game for better air flow and cooling.

• Dell Optiplex 745 with Broadcom NetXtreme 57xx Gigabit Controller with Windows 7 x 64 host cannot fill network

  All, I am new to the forum but have been reading up on top of a problem that had led me into a wall.

  I'm trying to create a development environment that uses VMWare Workstation 7.0.1 (and I tried with 7.0.0 before, leading me to)

  update in the hope of a quick solution) as a development of imaging and the test bench.  The system is a Dell Optiplex 745, upgraded to 8 GB of

  RAM.  Unfortunately, it seems that the biggest problem is the network card.

  I tried several different operating systems, and all DHCP requests are found in the AUTOMATIC private IP addressing.  This is even after I implemented a custom adapter (VMNet2) that fills explicitly to this network card problem.  I disabled VMNet0 and all because this dish was not working.  I have read some relevant

  messages, but nothing seems to help.  This included the http://communities.vmware.com/message/675649 and more

  positions listed on the registry settings.  I don't know what to do at this point.

  So, for those who do not know the Broadcom driver issues, they are apparently many.  It is important to disable the unloading, but

  I'm not able to find the settings in the post linked above.  It's quite similar to the OP for this thread.  I'm not

  know if it's a difference of conductor between the 32-bit and 64-bit implementations.  So, I updated from the version of the driver

  12.2.2.1 (b57nd60a.sys) of 10.100.0.0 (I think, can not driver rollback now to check because I need to work on VMS for urgent

  projects as soon as POSSIBLE).  So, as I said, I was unable to find the parameters of this post

  ()http://communities.vmware.com/thread/191085) mentioned below:

  • Large Send Offload (IPv4)

  • Large Send Offload v2 (IPv4)

  • Large Send Offload v2 (IPv6)

  What I found were these parameters:

  • Flow control (Auto, I tried to disable)

  • Priority and VLAN (priority & VLAN enabled; I tried priority and VLAN disabled)

  • Speed and Duplex (Knew better than to mess around here, has made the problems in the past, retired to Auto)

  • VLAN ID (always 0)

  • Wake Up Capabilities (Magic Packey; no one tried)

  • Unloading ARP (Enable; I tried to disable)

  • NS unloading (Enable; I tried to disable)

  I tried enabling / disabling all, specially those mentioning the unloading, all day without success.  This did not help.

  Later, I tried to add DontAddDefaultGateway, EnabledRSS and DisableTaskOffload keys to my CurrentControlSet on the

  host.  For some reason any DisableTaskOffload shows in the regedit, GUI, not the export of text.  Don't know what this means, and I'm too

  tired of care at this point.

• Replace the HARD drive in mid-2012 MBP of SSD?

  Given to replace my HARD drive of 1 TB in MBP mid-2012.  This MBP has already been customized (by Apple) to 2.9 GHz i7 8 GB mem.

  I'm looking for a solution at least to 1 TB also. How about this:

  IS it really that simple, as suggested by some video: current copy to SSD connected externally, than to go ahead with replacement? Then you can continue normal OSX updates as usual?

  Is it really worth?

  Yes, I do some "prosumer" video (FCP) and audio (Logic, Cubase, Pro Tools) - and use external USB 3 HARD drive.
