How to disable integrated on the Dimension 3000 video?

I'll install a videocard ATI Radeon HD 2400 PCI in Dimension 3000 my son.  I will also be upgrading the RAM of the system with

2 GB (2 x 1 GB) DDR 400 (PC 3200).   How can I disable the video integrated on this system?  In addition, any "lessons learned" to do any update on this system would be greatly appreciated.                 Thank you, Jack

There is no way to disable the built-in manually video material.  The BIOS has two parameters of the video card; Auto and on board.  The last forces the use of the integrated video, the first is supposed to allow the BIOS to switch automatically to a PCI graphics card.

The first thing to do is to restart the computer, use F2 to the Dell screen to go to the configuration and verify that the BIOS is set to automatic in the video menu.  Allow the computer start and go into the Device Manager.  Find the Intel graphic card in the display section of maps, right-click to bring up its properties.  Go to the menu "Use" at the bottom and select "don't not use this device - disable.  Restart the computer to verify that you are now a standard low resolution (640 X 480) VGA screen.  This action forces the loading of the VGA driver so that when you install the actual card, you will be able to get a display.  Turn the machine off and disconnect all install them the card.  Remove all external devices except the keyboard and mouse.  The cable of the port monitor built into the port on the new video card.  Power supply and start the computer.

Let the computer finish starting.  You should be able to see the VGA display, as you did when the monitor is always connected to the onboard video port.  If you do not, something is not right.  Do not try to load the driver for the card, unless you can get a VGA display on it.  First thing to try if you see nothing is to pass the card in another PCI slot.  If that does not do it, remove the power of the computer and reset the NVRAM by removing the cell of the backup of the main card for about a minute.  Replace the cell, connect the power supply and start the computer.  If you still don't see the VGA screen, you should try another card.  Some of the older Dells did not get along with ATI cards.

If you see the VGA screen, put the diskette of drivers for the video card in your CD ROM drive and install the driver.  I guess the drive of ATI's NET software framework on it; This software is necessary before you can install the driver.  I hope that your installation manual includes the details.

  • The Dimension 3000 processor upgrade

    I want to improve my old dimension 3000 D325 celeron processor equipped with a pentium 4.

    When I looked in the Dell user manual it says that the best processor I can get is a pentium 4 at 3.2 Ghz with hyper thread.

    When I looked at the site http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel _ (chipsets) 865GV.html it says I can put a 3.4 Ghz! and the list of the processor is much longer.

    Is there anyone who knows if I can use a pentium 4 3.4 GHz, 1 MB L2 cache with hyper threading?

    lingophi

    Either the Socket 478, P4 3.2 GHz or the 3.4 GHz P - 4 will work.

    Before you replace the processor, verify that the BIOS Version A03 is installed, when adding support for the latest processors has been added.

  • How to disable access to the cd player while windows is locked.

    Hello

    Does anyone know it's possible to disable access to the cd/dvd drive while windows is locked?

    That is, I would like to press Ctrl + alt + delete to lock my pc, then while I'm away, someone presses the eject button on my cd player and it will not eject.

    I have looked in device, properties of D: drive management, security settings, etc., but have been unable to find such a control to this day.

    Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

    Kind regards

    J

    Hi JC_226,

    This isn't the Windows feature. Can not disable access to the cd player while windows is locked. However, there is an option to disable the CD/DVD device. To do this, you can follow these steps:
    a. Click Start, click Run, type devmgmt.msc, and then click ok.
    b. in the list of objects, expand CD/DVD players.
    c. right-click on the sub element and click on disable.
    d. follow the instructions in the wizard to disable the device.

    Important: If you disable a device that is required to start the system, such as your floppy drive or CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive, these devices will not work, and your system might not start.

  • How to disable 'registration' on the EDGE

    Hi people,

    Just a quicky... If all goes well

    How do you turn off the coast of "snap to objects" when the elements of positioning on the stage? I have a small object and I want to re - position the central point to run it correctly, but every time I try to do, he clings to the original (incorrect) center point or it goes too far in one direction towards the edge of the object. I found 'Align to guides' in the menu 'View', but can't find anything whatsoever to "snap to objects" or similar.

    Any ideas?

    See you soon!

    T.

    Hello

    Not sure I understand the problem. If you uncheck the Smart Guides, you shouldn't have any behavior snapping when you drag close to other objects.

    You set the original transform using the transform tool? It is the behavior snapping to the element you are handling, and maybe it's what you see? If this is the case, try adjusting the original transform in the properties panel to get it exactly where you want.

  • How to disable scrolling of the hover

    When you add an attachment, after continuous clicks on the roll bar, it automatically scrolls extremely fast simply by pointing the mouse on the scroll bar. Move the mouse to stop the scrolling, but moving the mouse on causes to scroll very fast again. Which means that I can't even put the mouse over the bar without it blowing down the scroll bar.

    How can I disable this? NOTE: Can't that FF, AutoScroll is disabled.

    This problem occurs in the window that allows you to select a file? Same as if you click on the 'Browse... '. "button under the form of response on this site?
