  • Dell Dimension 2400 desktop w/XP Home Edition: video card Question

    Hello people... last week, I got a desktop pc from a friend who walked away, Dimension 2400 desktop with Windows XP Home Edition. I plan on upgrading it and either sell it or it give. Last night, I ordered a titled graphics card "ATI Radeon 9250 card 256 MB DDR PCI"... which, after purchasing, I discovered via google and other search engines it takes to 220W - 250W power... the power supply installed is 200W... fundamental question is: should I upgrade the PSU? ". Or 200 will do well. Thank you!!!

    Hello

    Welcome to the community

    Have you tested the video card? The computer works fine with the new card? In this configuration, I suggest to upgrade the power supply. You can get 250W or higher power. If the computer is on, you can wait for that stop at random. Let me know if you still need assistance.

    Kind regards

  • upgrade of dimension 2400 heatsink

    No one knows what other heat sink or cooler I use in my dell dimension 2400 I can't seem to find another at all my old work well and help my computer on sleeves

    I have installed a standard spare heater Socket 478 in my 2350, similar to the 2400, but lost BIOS fan control and had to install a fan controller. I have tried both a Rosewill and a Zalman 7000 ALCU.

    If you're wondering, the 2400 is standard mATX case, apart from the audio before, wiring is compatible with the standard headers. Regarding the audio before, he has the standard wires and can be rewired for an ordinary 2 x 5 socket Molex, which I did with a Dimension 3000 (same chassis).

    Meanwhile, the 2400 has been designed to work with the heatsink you have, then why is it overheating? Perhaps the bracket is broken and the radiator is not firmly attached to the CPU? If you need a new slice, standard Socket 478 units could operate; I replaced the broken leg in my 2350 with a new generic one from eBay.

  • Satellite Pro A100: CD/DVD player will not play the audio CD or video DVD

    People,
    I have a Satellite Pro A100, with a RUG * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841 S Drive.
    It will read fine data disks, but refuses to play with the audio CD or video DVD.

    I tried to uninstall & Re-Installing DVD - RAM Driver;
    That got rid of the "IO error" that I received, unfortunately I don't notice the full error: S.
    He now just doesn't see the drive. Someone at - it ideas?

    I did a full windows update, and the Toshiba Diagnostic util tell me anything useful except "Fail" :(

    I found a thread in this forum that describes a similar theme:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=19747&MessageID=72404

    Sometimes this error is displayed because the player does not support the environment.
    Always it is every way is supported by readers and I think that in the user manual, you will find an index CDs or DVDs compatible

    Maybe the drive is defective and can not calibrate lens in the right position.
    But this laptop is not very old, and I can't imagine that the drive is defective
    However, nothing is impossible.

    What you can do is to carefully clean the lens and see that it will help.

  • New HP 2011 x 20 '' LED monitor for old Dell Dimension 2400. necessary graphics card?

    My in-laws have an old Dell Dimension 2400 and the monitor exploded. I bought a new HP 2011 x 20 '' LED monitor. My WIRE went to set up, and he tells her that a HMDI graphics card is required.

    This is a pretty old computer. I think he might have as... 512 MB of RAM. Is there an inexpensive graphics card that will meet their needs?

    And besides, when they buy the graphics card, are there all the cables that they must reach a new monitor to an old computer?

    Thank you very much!

    Nice description of Dell:
    Video connector to 15 holes :-)

    Seems to be a VGA connector.

    From the description of the monitor:
    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02643130
    There is an also vga connector, so you will have no problem to connect the two.

    No additional card is necessary, no other cable - just use the old vga cable.

    Your only problem might be the resolution:
    resolution 1600 x 900 set at the factory for the monitor.

    I don't know if you can set the resolution to Dell, you should test.

    Otherwise a 4:3 normal/old monitor would be better than this 'big screen' new.

  • 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.

    No you can't. Given that it's a Dell and it came with Windows XP pre-installed, it's an OEM of Windows version.  The biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is that its license it permanently binds to the computer first it is installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold, or given to outside (except with the original computer). If the computer dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

    And let me ask you as if you checked to make sure everything on the Dell is compatible with Windows 7, and there are Windows 7 drivers for all your hardware that requires it.

  • What's Dell Dimension 2400 desktop computer capable of capturing a wireless signal? Should this function be switched?

    Dell dimension 2400 desktop computer was plugged into the wireless router we have. We got a new computer and moved the old desktop (Dell 2400) in another room. It is not picking up, or even searching for a wireless signal. She still has this ability? How can we it give this ability?

    The Dimension 2400 is not normally a built-in wireless networking capability.  To view, go to the Control Panel > Classic view > System > hardware > Device Manager and double-click network adapters .

    If that doesn't show wireless network card, you can add it by buying a USB wireless network adapter or a Wireless PCI adapter card .

    The Dimension 2400 can use 400 MHz or 533 MHz, Socket 478, P - 4 Northwood or Celeron processor with a 512 k or more small cache.
