Dell optiplex 790 and windows 8

Hello guys

What is windows 8 pro compatible with Dell optiplex 790?

Are there problems with it or not so if I buy windows 8 pro 64-bit, how can I install the drivers?

Hi raedov

790 OptiPlex systems have been tested to support the upgrade of Windows 8. The 790 does support upgrading to Windows 8. You can also visit the below mentioned link for more help:

Before moving to windows 8, you can also run the Windows 8 Upgrade Wizard. It scans your current PC to see if it is ready for Windows 8 and provides a compatibility report and optional steps to make you buy, download and install Windows 8.

    If the machine came originally with Vista, and you charged it with Win 7 disc by the same manufacturer, it will go into a grace period and the non-genuine end - the key used for this installation requires data appropriate to the SLIC table in BIOS in order to activate it.
  • Lack of Dell Optiplex 790, PCI Simple Communications controller driver

    Performed a clean installation of Windows 10 Pro on my Dell OptiPlex 790.  Everything went well and all device drivers have been installed except one, the Intel AMT - GROUND device.  The vendor id is 8086 and the device id is 1C3D.  Can help you with this question?

    Thank you.

    It seems that it is the Intel Series driver LAN.  Your computer was never tested by Dell for Windows 10, which means there is no new driver created by Intel, etc., that can work.  You can google Intel AMT/GROUND and see if Intel has a driver for your chipset that can work.  It looks like Dell stopped supporting your computer for Windows 8.0

  • Hard drive support Dell Optiplex 790 (installation SSD 2.5 ")

    Hello

    I intend to install a new 2.5 "SSD in my Dell Optiplex 790 (mini lathe). Unfortunately, the original hard drive carrier (3.5 "?) was lost.

    As the number of hard disk media (Dell) is quite overwhelming me, I would be very happy to help to find the bracket.

  • Dell Precision 390 and Windows 7 64 bit driver support

    We have a Dell Precision 390 and want to pass this to a Windows 7 64-bit operating system.  Several months ago, I noticed driver support for Windows 7 64-bit for the Dell Precision 390 model but pilot at the moment the site and downloads not support all these drivers for Windows 7.  It seems that the support has been removed.  At best, it supports only Windows Vista 64-bit.  Can someone explain why there is no support driver for Dell Precision 390 for the 64-bit Windows 7 platform?

    Tony

    I have a Dell Precision 390 and Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit loaded just fine and it is running.

    It is strongly suggested that you do a clean install.

    So I wiped my HD (after backing up personal files). Don't come to format your drive, I mean totally wipe it.

    Automatic updates will install the drivers you need for any connected device or visit the manufacturers for your drivers.

    So in short, "Don't sweat it".

    Go ahead and download this puppy goes for a few years.

  • ESXi install on dell optiplex 790

    Hi experts,


    1A tried to install Native Vmware Esxi 5.1 OS on Dell Optiplex 790, reported Installation Wizard not found supported network cards.

    2. I tried Esxi custom Dell installation 5.1 on the same area, then received the same error message.


    sounds like network drivers is not included in both of the Esxi Images, any idea on this issue.


    Error message 'no network adapters detected' when installing ESXi on Dell PowerEdge servers 12th generation - Dell Dell TechCenter - TechCenter community.



    Dell optiplex 790 got the intel pro 100/1000 cards.


    Even when I installed RHEL, it's the same thing, but fortunately RHEL does not stop in the Setup Wizard if the card is not supported. After the Installation of OS RHEL. I installed the e1000 driver. It works very well.


    VMware should have the same opportunity to install drivers after installing ESxi OS.




    If you do not have a suitable driver for the specific NETWORK card package, you can use Image Builder to create a custom ISO Setup / CD. Take a look at http://www.v-front.de/p/esxi-customizer.html , which greatly simplifies this task.

  • Power supply Dell Optiplex 790 SFF cycles power on and off when it is plugged

    My new to me SFF Optiplex 790 does not start - pressing power causes a switch to send amber for a few seconds, the 1 + 2 diagnostic lights shine briefly, and then the system turns off. But wait... with power plugged in, it will try to restart every 10 seconds or until I have unplug the unit.

    System lasted about 30-40 minutes when I tested it, but it starts then power cycling.

    Power supply passes with built-in 'green light' regardless of any internal or external devices connected. I bought a sweater 'work' PSU, no change.

    Ideas for testing? System is stock, no mods or upgrades of what I see.

  • Dell optiplex 745 with Windows 7 Pro

    I just bought a Dell Optiplex 745 refurbished with Windows 7 Pro.  It came with a HP Windows 7 Pro re install the disc and when I'm asked them thereon, they stated that a re HP install disk is identical to a Dell disk.  Is this true and if not what problems it will create if I have to re install Windows 7.

    They are the two Windows 7, one that said you is accurate, but there are also significant differences.  Dell Media is intended to be installed on a Dell computer and activate automatically, without the need for manual entry of the product key.  HP is designed to do the same... on a HP machine.  There is a good chance that he would not accept the Dell product key either... even if she have installed successfully.  In addition, most of the OEM media even install on other than a machine correspondent (HP discs usually install on Dell, not vice versa).

  • Dell Precision m6600 and Windows 10

    Y at - there no confirmation of anyone who Windows 10 works on Precision Mobile Workstation M6600?

    There is no drivers for Windows 8.1 and I never managed to make it work properly with Windows 8.1. VMWare Workstation would crash, blue screens, etc. This is because there is no drivers for this model of Dell for Windows 8.1 released.    But will it be the same story with Windows 10?

    I can confirm that Windows 10 works on the M6600. I just upgraded my M6600 and Windows 10 in fact improved some drivers and improved my way of computer work.

    From the moment I bought my Logitech H800 headset, I couldn't match directly with the laptop through Bluetooth. The USB receiver was still necessary. As soon as I have upgraded to Windows 10 my H800 has been recognized and immediately connected!

    There are two small problems that scared me at first. WIFI or Bluetooth worked immediately after the upgrade to Windows 10. I don't know why this happened but I am simply gone network adapters and disabled, then reactivated each of them. After reactivated the WIFI started working with Bluetooth

  • RAID0 en Dell Optiplex 790

    Buenas tardes!

    Estoy queriendo usar una Optiplex 790 como backup servidor, por lo that I need armar discos in RAID 0, y queria Saber TR are posible. Porque por lo than Biogen verificando via not web, none are posible.

    MUCHAS Gracias!

    Hi GFurlani,

    It is my understanding that the Intel Q65 chipset does not support RAID. If you need to add a separate controller card that supports the data disks in a RAID.

    Good luck!

  • I reinstalled Windows XP Home Edition on a Dell Optiplex GX260, and now I can not conntect to the internet.

    I am going through the help pages, but do not receive a lot of help. I used the window network, set up several times and it doesn't give me a single connection and even will not create a second try. It's 1394 connection. I click Repair and he says: "failed to query TCP/IP connection parameters. Cannot continue. »
    I normally work with unix/linux, windows do not know. Carrying high that IE gives me the generic, the page cannot be displayed error. It goes right to that error, does not even attempt verify an active connection.
    I have one router with 3 other systems connected and working, so I know that the problem is specific to this host.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you
    Darren

    Just as with * nix, if you want a hardware device to communicate with the operating system - you must install the appropriate drivers so that they can talk to each other.

    At this point, you are trying to use a firewire connection (1394) to your network. ;-)

    What you need to do is quite simple - but will probably require the use of another machine (or another OS already on the machine that runs on Internet) at least for the first downloads (the motherboard chipset and the NIC driver).

    If you visit the Dell technical support & downloads from the website for this particular desktop , you will see all the drivers that Dell provides for the system using Windows XP.

    Dell offers you download and install the drivers in this order:

    • Chipset
    • Video adapter
    • (NIC) Network Interface Card
    • Audio adapter
    • Modem
    • Wireless network card
    • Touchpad, pointer, pointing button, mouse and keyboards
    • Other devices

    In this case, I suggest that download you the chipset driver and network card driver - get first install them in this order with some necessary reboots, then you should be able to configure Internet and get other drivers using the machine itself.
