  Hello

  Follow these steps.

  Go to Start, run, copy and paste this command, then click OK: services.msc
  (Press the Windows key + R if you do not "run" in the start menu)

  In the list of Services, see Background Intelligent Transfer Service or BITS ?

  If it is not listed, please follow these steps if you have a desktop computer. If you have a laptop, go to section 2

  Open the Windows search tool, copy / paste the following text, and then click Search: qmgr.dll

  Research should show this file in the following locations:

  C:\Windows\System32
  C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386
  C:\WINDOWS\system32\bits

  I hope they are all present, follow these steps to register the service.

  Go to Start, run , and copy/paste: regsvr32 qmgr.dll and click OK

  Do the same with this file: regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll

  Restart the PC and then copy / paste this command into the field run:
  %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe setupapi, InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 %windir%\inf\qmgr.inf

  If you are prompted to insert the Windows installation CD, ignore this and in the dialog below, replace the path C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386

  The reason to change the path to the i386 folder is that the files that are there are newer than those on the Windows installation CD.

  Restart the PC and then go to the Services and you should be able to see BITS in the list.

  Double click on it and then on the general tab, click the Start button to start the service manually. This is just a test to make sure that it works correctly.

  If you get 2 error: cannot find the specified file, click on start, then run again and copy / paste the following command, and then click OK:
  Tracking Add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BITS\Parameters /v ServiceDll /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d %windir%\System32\qmgr.dll

  Reboot again and try once more to start the PIECES. It should work fine now, but in the unlikely case where it fails again, run the following command, and then press ENTER:
  Reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup

  Reboot once more and then do the following.

• ScanJet G4050: Cannot install full software for my scanner G4050 on Dell XPS 8900 Win 7

  When I try to install the downloaded software installation tells me that it cannot find any USB hardware or the USB drivers.

  When I plug the scanner Windows installs it and shows in display devices and printers.

  I can click on it and it will scan a picture, but gives me no control on what I might be scanning.

  I unplugged the USB cable from the scanner to the computer, removed the printer from devices and printers and tried to reinstall the software.  Still no joy.  I have no problem with other USB devices.

  Any help appreciated.

• Brand new XPS 8900 Win 10 won't turn on, flashes yellow 2 times power made a break of 7 times pauses then resumes.

  Brand new XPS 8900 Win 10 won't turn on, flashes yellow 2 times power made a break of 7 times pauses then resumes.

  I've not seen a chart explaining flashing power on the 8900 XPS button codes. And there is nothing in the Manual.

  You need to contact Dell tech support immediately. You have 21 days from the date of billing (no delivery date) to pick them up. And then you can order another.

  Otherwise, technical support should work with you to solve the problem under warranty on this system.

  If you are comfortable working inside the case, it is possible that something got its place potted during shipping. Then you can try reseating the RAM and PCI-e cards modules and cables between motherboard and drives and connection etc. Don't forget to read the instructions on the inside of your PC use in the manual before opening the case.

• Updates for the SSD of 32 GB LITEON m2 on a special edition of Dell XPS-8900.

  Has anyone successfully upgraded Cache SSD m2 on their system XPS-8900?

  I have a Dell XPS-8900 that I bought a few months ago, and you want to update the cache of hard drive SSD m2.  The system has 2 to 7200 RPM hard drive + Cache SSD of 32 GB m2, 16 GB of memory (which I'm upgrading to 32 GB) and the processor i7 - 6700 k.

  I tried to replace it with either the Samsung 850 EVO m2 250 GB SSD or the Samsung 950 PRO NVMe 256 GB SSD.  I read in another post on the forum that the limit for XPS-8900 in the m2 slot was 256 GB.  Anyone know if this is correct?

  If anyone has any ideas on how I can change my system to tighten a bit more performance out of my system, I'd greatly appreciate your ideas.  It seems a little slow at startup and loading applications than I expected.

  It is not necessary to install a larger disk for use as a cache - it won't do much (if any) for performance.  There is a valid argument by replacing the disk cache with an SSD of larger m2 and then by installing the operating system on this drive (that is, running in native mode of SSD).  That WILL stimulate the acceptable performance.

  I doubt that there is a limit on the capacity of the drive - but there is no doubt about the physical size of the map itself.  Note that this system is NOT wired with an interface of PCIe 4 ways - then install a player is not worth the extra cost, because it will be limited by the design of the motherboard.

• Looking to update the graphics card in my Dell XPS 8900 EVGA GeForce GTX 960.

  I have a Dell XPS 8900 Special Edition that I bought a few months ago. I want to upgrade the OEM GeForce 745 of GTX that it came with an EVGA GTX 960.

  I have the Dell XPS 8900 (processor i7 - 6700 k), 32 GB of memory, 2 TB HDD + SSD of 32 GB m2, monitor cache Dell UP2516D and Windows 10 Pro. I'll add a second monitor Dell UP2516D soon and later add an SSD and move the OS and applications on.

  My needs are not at stake. I mainly business applications (MS-Office, including access and project), finance and investment, and a lot of photo and video editing.  Photo editing software uses the GPU if I update.

  EVGA has suggested either of the following, based on what would be good:

  http://www.EVGA.com/products/product.aspx?PN=04G-P4-1961-KR

  http://www.EVGA.com/products/product.aspx?PN=04G-P4-3963-KR

  These cards are almost identical except;

  #1 is long of 6.8 ", has 1 BIOS, 1 fan and use 128 watts for $160

  #2 is 10.1 "long, has 2 BIOS, 2 fans and consume 160 watts for $170

  I thought I would replace the graphics card myself, but once I opened the folder, I was wondering if the two cards will even fit.  I saw that other people have swapped their graphics card, so it must be possible.

  When I look in my case, the existing graphics card is a single location.  These two cards are double slot.  In addition, it seems that there are a few transistors just next to the existing card.  When you install a card double slot, the new map is just overlap the transistors under?

  Finally, in view of these two cards and the XPS 8900 case, is it possible to put the card in?  Is it worth the extra $ 10 earn an extra BIOS and fan, to the detriment of one more card of time and 12 watts?

  Any help or thoughts are greatly appreciated, thank you.

  Dual cards fit without any problem. Many have improved their 8900 XPS and 8700 with cards that need two slots of width.

  I prefer the models dual fan as they run cooler. They have a bigger heat sink and with relatively low heat from GTX 960, some are silent at idle because the fans do not work.

  For example, MSI GTX 970 son fan only above a certain temp that only happens every game. Maybe the EVGA card did the same thing. It is nice to have a quiet system at idle.

  Regarding the adjustment, the MSI GTX 970 games 4 G card Dimensions are (mm) 140 x 277 x 35. Length and height are tight but it fits without cutting.

  In addition, as noted speedstep you run SATA cables under the card. I replaced the SATA cables with longer cables, so they route toward the front of the box, then under the graphics card and upward.

  This thread has many cards different people have added. (the link is on page 26) and about the halfway point is my son with the MSI GTX 970 system, which (I think) is slightly larger that the EVGA 960 you listed.  It also shows the case mod to add a front fan.

• Update hard disc on the special edition of Dell XPS-8900

  Hello, I have a Dell XPS-8900 that I bought a few months ago, and you want to upgrade the hard drive.  There to 2, 7200 RPM hard drive + Cache SSD of 32 GB m2.  I noticed by looking at the disk management, it has 2 free sheet music; a 39 MB OEM Partition and 11.73 GB recovery Partition.  Both show that they are 100% free.  I created the recovery USB disk and it deleted the recovery Partition files.

  Should I still have the Partition recovery or the OEM Partition?  When I switch to a new hard drive, is it possible to simply copy the partition of the OS?

  Also, I thought that he would have an EFI System Partition.  Is that what I need or installation?

  UEFI allows secure and start for 2 t boot partitions format: those are the two major differences, as well as the withdrawal of the restriction to have four primary partitions per disk.  Those who are not important here.

  I don't think that there is a capacity limit on the m2 in height slot, but there is most likely a limitation of the physical size of the map itself which may restrict your ability.

  You will get the best performance from the system running the operating system for one SSD drive for some.  You can easily find 2.5 "SATA SSD affordable up to 1 t in size now.  Drives 2.5 "tend to be less expensive than m2 format disks, although NVMe readers (whose prices are in the stratosphere), they are largely very reasonable in price for the exception.

  I would not necessarily fear disks 3.5 "Toshiba - these are in large part the designs of Hitachi/HGST (Toshiba entered the market of disk 3,5 '' when WD resumed HGST - the Chinese Government opposed the consolidation to two manufacturers of records based in the United States and forced to WD to spin off plants making the disks 3.5" to Toshiba).  The HGST designs have a good reputation for reliability - much better than those of Seagate, for sure.

  You are probably better off with a straight on the clone of the drive.  You can use the Windows Disk Administrator to change the partitions later.  I had the good luck of late with Macrium Reflect (free), but Acronis image works well - and Samsung provides a free version of it if you choose one of their SSDS.

• Dell XPS 8900 System Desktop Computer "freezes and crashes.

  Recently, I bought a desktop computer Dell XPS 8900 with system Windows 7 professional responsible pre OP. The first thing I did was to make a list of list of all components of the system, the date and version of each. Then, I went to the Dell website, enter the number of computer and created a list of all the updates from Dell for this computer. Then I downloaded and installed all updates component except the update of BIOS that was the same version but there was no date for her.

  I have known hang ups and freezes since the beginning of the use of this computer and I keep having the same freeze and hang ups.
  With the number of complaints for the same problem, regardless of the operating system, you'd think Dell management and sales would recognize that there is a legitimate problem with this computer and assign their engineers to research the problem and issue a recall or a fix to the XPS 8900 users. I am a long time professional computer with more than 45 years in the it community. I always trusted Dell and their products recommended to family and friends, but also contacts in the it community and potential buyers. Dell can either acknowledge the problem with this product, and take appropriate corrective action or they can ignore the problem that won't go away, but the buyers of Dell products will be when the word gets out. I feel more comfortable buying or recommending Dell computers or for anyone.

  Error message @ boot Win 7 Pro "there was a problem starting C:\programdata\ofpviaowu.dat - the specified module could not be found."

  This error message appears whenever I have start my computer and windows starts (Firefox doesn't start up). 15.01 Firefox work properly otherwise.

  This started after I installed the 15.0.1 patch.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but the problem remains. Search Google for "ofpviaowu.dat" came with "2012-08-29 Firefox version 15 startup Crash Report" as the only listing.

  Is this a Firefox problem?

  My system has this file: C:\ProgramData\Mozilla\logs\. I don't think that Firefox or update service should write directly to the root of C:\ProgramData\. It could be a configuration error, or it could be completely different.
