• OptiPlex GX280 soundmax integrated digital audio failed, driver problem?

  I have an Optiplex GX280 with soundmax integrated digital audio under Windows 7 SP1. Sound works fine for a long time, then more nothing. I uninstalled it, rebooted, Windows Update found and installed the same driver. Speakers using good reputation does not work. I tried to find a few smwdm.sys, NG. I double checked the BIOS, audio integrated will continue to operate. He then restarted and re-enabled it is disabled.  I found a newer driver, 5.12.02.5280 is not compatible. About to call it DOA, and order a PCI card, thought I'd give it a shot in the forum. Appreciate the help.

• Rental short term for the Mac Pro Tower - transplant ramdisk hard

  Hello

  I am a composer based in the United Kingdom and use round of mid-2010 Mac Pro 8 Core (2 x 2.4 GHz) Intel Xeon with 64 GB RAM and four SSD drives.

  I am going to Los Angeles for a project of long months of work in July and need a same computer set up to use while I'm there.  It's too expensive/complicated to ship my computer to the United States, then I'll probably rent a machine in Los Angeles.

  I found in a place that I can rent a tower 2012 Mac Pro 12-Core (2.4 GHz) with 16 GB of RAM, and I wondered: if I take my four SSD drives and my RAM modules, then I simply transplant these pieces into the 12 basic machine and start as my home machine?  Or must I buy an additional empty SSD and use the Migration Wizard to clone my main boot drive?

  I've never done this before, so I don't know if the boot drive will recognize that it is connected to a computer with a different motherboard etc.

  Thanks for any help and advice,

  Laurent

  Change the RAM and the disc should be fine. I would take the sleds with your SSD and just slid the old sleigh and do drag in your.

  I currently have a HP Elite SFF-8200 and two hard drives set up with all the software work properly. I would rather have to do it all over again if I can!

  I have come to take delivery of a new 8300 Elite SFF and I would both the 8200 HARD drives, transplant (and will do a fresh install on the 8200 at the disk in the 8300).

• Can I add a memory for my Dell Optiplex GX280?

  Can I add a memory for my Dell Optiplex GX280?  He is running on 2 256 MB. dor2. 400 CL3

  * Nothing * to do with Microsoft Windows, really.

  One place of spec on (and to buy, actually) good memory of:
  http://www.crucial.com/

  With the help of their memory Advisor...  I see...

  Type of memory: DDR2 PC2-5300, DDR2 (non - ECC)
  Maximum memory: 4 GB
  Slots: 4
  Memory each slot can hold DDR2 PC2-5300 with a maximum of 1 GB per slot.

  But with this machine, except if you use it just for the essential (and nothing more recent than the manufactured 2005-2006ish date topic installed on it) - I suggest not wasting money.  Do pretend, raise money and then don't buy it.  What to do for the next few months and buy some replacement $ 300 with twice the processor, three times the RAM and probably several times in the space of hard drive... ;-)

  Well, if anyone can help me I would really appreciate it.

• How to repair the failure to seek the Floppy disk on my optiplex gx280

  I get the failure to seek a Floppy diskette.  How can I fix this on my Optiplex GX280 with Vista

  You actually have a floppy drive in your computer?  The solution will depend on the answer to this question.  If you do then it is defective and must be replaced, otherwise you will need to disable the floppy drive in the BIOS configuration.

  BIOS: Phoenix ROM BIOS PLUS v1.10 A03

  Processor: Intel Pentium 4 running at 2.66 Ghz

  RAM: Mb 2174

  Thank you

  Hi QuattroBrain,

  What form factor is your gx270s.

  Your system does not support any i-series processor. Remember that your system is old, a few generations for the improvement of the performance will be limited at best. All new system, even a low, will run circles around your gx270s.

• No Audio device - Dell Optiplex gx270s

  I just installed XP - sp3 on a Dell Optiplex gx270s. The sound does not work.   There is no symbol of "speaker" on the taskbar.

  I went to Device Manager and clicked on sound - nothing appears.

  I went to control panel and under sounds he says no audio device.

  I also checked the bios of the computer, 'her' is 'on' and 'speakers' were 'off' so I went that 'on' - but still no change.

  I so appreciate the help - THANK YOU.

  The Soundmax AC97 Codec driver is specific to the gx270s is not originally from the XP CD.

• Radeon 9600 Pro in a gx270s?

  I ordered a Radeon 9800 Pro, because I've seen this thread: en.community.dell.com/.../17363749

  Well, the person of Amazon sent me the wrong card and it was a 9600 instead of the 9800.

  The 9600, however, fits perfectly, the lights of the computer turns on and the fan on the card works, but the problem is that the PC is not appear on the screen at all.

  So what could be the problem?

  No it's not true.  The 9600 pro Mac edition works fine in a PC or a Mac.

  The mac version of the map ONLY works in G4 and G5 Macs.

  I have this card and a gx270s and it works very well. That's why its called ATI Radeon 9600 PRO PC & Mac Edition.

• OptiPlex gx270s for Windows XP video drivers

  I rebooted a boring optiplex gx270s with XP SP3 to replace another machine having for some reason to have XP on it (an old piece of equipment must be supported and has no drivers after XP).

  In any case, I ran into problems that others have also and got through it, not seeing the network card or sound.   However, Device Manager does still no video driver.

  When I opened the box, there is a Council of DVI that says:

  Silicon Image

  Map of ADD sil 164 Carrera

  SIL - SC - 0034C Rev 1.3

  Enter the number of inventory shows this machine originally shipped (guess that's the same still in the box) with:

  8M 206

  Adapter, graphics, Digital video Interface, LPF-BRKT

  Nothing else shows on the manifest of the video, but not sure how many configurations this box might be bundled with.  I really hate on port DVI port anyway as I have only something connected to the VGA.  I can install this driver if necessary but is really one does not like.

  In any case, the XP Device Manager currently displays a yellow question mark for "Other devices" video controller (VGA Compatible).

  Without a driver, I can not set the resolution what that went 640 x 480 (16 colors)

  I tried to look at the list of drivers to guess the most appropriate one and I have tried the one below only because it didn't seem like a fix for something and he mentioned dual DVI/VGA in what is definitely what this box has.

  R253949.exe

  and it says:

  ATI 64 MB PCI-Express x 16 (DVI/TV-out) Radeon X 300 SE, 128 MB PCI - Express x 16 (Dual VGA or DVI) Radeon X 300, v.8.263.5.1 - 060607 a - 035600 C, A02 ATI 64 MB PCI-Express x 16 (DVI/TV-out) Radeon X 300 SE 128 MB PCI - Express x 16 (Dual VGA or DVI) Radeon X 300, v.8.263.5.1 - 060607 a - 035600 C, A02

  In any case, running this program seems to basically just abandon (maybe because it wasn't the right one), but certainly does not solve the problem of not seeing a driver in Device Manager.  I even tried another install into a directory of the driver that was created.

  Any ideas on what video driver must I use?   I can try them all, but have seen other posts about people getting into trouble when you use the opposite hole (vs DVI VGA) which became the 'active', one from the pilots.   Just thought I do it first.

  Thank you!

  Silicon Image is not a card at all, it is a passage.

  8M 206 is just an INTEL shipped to past DVI.

• OptiPlex GX280 minitower - what video card works?

  Hello.. I'm looking for 'the best' video card that fits a GX280 stock.  I welcome all suggestions, especially if you have tried.

  Thanks for the cycles of neuron...

  Hi Chris, your guide is HERENOTE from the ADMIN: broken link has been removed / replaced this post by Dell >

  , and it is said that you have a 305wPSU and a PCIe x 16 slot for your graphics card. With that in mind, I would recommend the 9500GT, see HERE. If she says necessary 350w, manufactors overstate their power necessary for their cards, and Dell is understste power for their PSU.

• HARD drive disappears after accidental factory driver reset in a Dell Opti gx270s [:(]

  This is how my sound card, a Creative Labs Audigy Platinum decided to go missing in action. So I removed and installed a back upward. It does not solve the problem but it worked fine in another PC. I took and came back to the system of its integrated Realtek or something. It was a little confusing.  Soon I realized that it had been turned off in the BIOS. Well well, I was getting a little nervous about the State of things then I went to install a RW/CD-ROM drive so that I can get some criticism upward current, as I had learned how to integrate the operating system with all service packs and drivers of motherboard and everything to make it a perfect installation disc I thought I'd do adisc this and do a full backup of all the files needed, but I couldn't get any of the three DVD CDRW drives to work. I got the drivers for each permanent and I knew at least one of them was basically new, and all of them were in good condition. I couldn't get one of them to be recognized by the. Well, I'm not stupid, but I was under a huge strain of workload. I went online to get the factory drivers default to the gx270s and downloaded, but luckily it moments later I had this revelation... "It must be in the BIOS" I thought to myself, and of course, when I went to check, this is exactly the case. I made the necessary changes and as soon as I restarted with changes saved to the new factory default drivers BIOS came into effect, and he would not see the HARD drive and when I loooked in the BIOS, there is no HARD drive side although I had two connected to the SFF gx270s I've had for a decade. Any advice would be appreciated :'(]

  If there is a problem with the IDE drives detected in BIOS, the problem has nothing to do with drivers. Indeed, the device drivers for your hard disk and DVD player are generic Windows drivers, so that they are almost impossible to mess up. The SATA controller driver is not a driver generic, but which would not impact on your IDE hard drives.
