• Issues with Dell desktop computer wireless and D-Link wireless network card. Only able to get wireless access by checking "Use Windows to configure my wireless network". This kind of file sharing impossible.

  original title: can't see the computer on wireless internet!

  I hope that's not too much detail, but I would like that the sequence of events to be clear...

  I have a Dell desktop computer that's probably six or seven years now.  It did not come with a wireless card, so I bought a DLink router and combo card wireless, install both with the DLink software.  It works beautifully.

  Later, we through my rep AT & T DSL, I got a Motorola modem/router with wireless capabilities.  I had plugged directly on my computer Dell desktop and moved to a Dell laptop DLink wireless receiver.  No problems.

  The Dell laptop is dead and the DLink receiver has not been used for a long time.  Family of my daughter moved to our place, and I have connected his desktop computers and laptop to wireless internet, using the Windows Connection Wizard.  Still no problem.

  I got a new ASUS laptop, I also linked using the Windows Wizard.  STILL no problem.

  Now, here's the problem comes.  I moved the Dell desktop computer, connected the DLink wireless receiver to it and I am able to get wireless access ONLY when I go into the properties of PC, click the wireless networks tab and check the "use Windows to configure my wireless network" box.  Then I can connect correctly, but I don't see this computer on my wireless network.  Bad luck... because I want to be able to access share files.  When I try to connect using different assistants of Windows, I get a message to the effect that, if I used another software to connect to the program, I can't use the Windows Wizard.

  So, what can I do to remove the original configuration of DLink completely and to connect to my wireless network using the wizards in Windows?  I uninstalled the software of DLink, but it seems to have no effect at all.

  BTW, Dell desktop computer is running XP, office computer of my daughter is running VISTA, and two laptops are equipped with Windows 7.  I can see all the computers on the network with the exception of the original Dell desktop computer wireless.

  Any help would be appreciated!

• HP Officejet 7612: Also how wireless connect my laptop to my printer? (Already connected Dell desktop computer)

  I just bought a printer Officejet 7612.

  I have setup my Dell desktop (windows XP, ASUS router) with a wireless connection to the printer successfully.

  My Dell desktop computer is connected to the router via a cable ethernet ASUS.

  I thought that my laptop (Fujitsu T900, windows 7) would automatically see the printer; but it doesn't work.

  The laptop connects wireless to my ASUS router to access the Internet.

  For my laptop see the printer Officejet 7612 - do I also need to install the software suite Officejet 7612 whole on the laptop (as I already did on my desktop Dell computer)?

  Thank you once more!

  (I apologize in advance because this is probably a stupid question

  Hello @Scooby777,

  Welcome to the HP support forums.

  Certainly not a stupid question.

  The answer is: Yes, you need to install the software on all your devices.

  You can also choose to install the base drivers.

  Base drivers will give you all the features of the printer.

  If you need additional assistance, please let me know.

• Dell desktop computer just ran scan & system - failure of the card mother how fix this?

  Hi, I have a Dell desktop computer that came with an Epson printer & all the other necessary things: keyboard, mouse, speakers, & flat screen.  I bought it in 2009.  I'm on social security, so I can't afford to buy a warranty with Dell, which missed.  My system works fine.  Dell offers, free of charge, a scan to check the memory card mother and other issues.  I do the scan every month.   It was record past in all categories.

  However, I just did a scan on July 6, 2013 and the analysis of response of the system said failure in red.  Then he said: 'mother' I know refers to the hard drive.  I am over 65 and fairly low tech & live alone.  However, I am pretty savvy, computer or as much as I can be.

  I checked the help MSN menu, but could not follow him.  This is why I post my question on the MSN Community forum, which helped me with other problems in the past.  I have also just posted on the Dell forums.  I have MSN as my homepage & use IE 9, it works best for me.  The only email I have is on AOL and I've been there for years without any problem.

  I have Verizon FIOS; If I can't get an idea of how this problem on the forums (in fact, I prefer MSN forums) I'll call them.  They offer free advice by telephone.  If necessary, they will come to my apartment to check my system & require a rate SIGNIFICANTLY lower than the Geek Squad.

  However, I did not do anything to the system.  I have update printer drivers, since the printer has suddenly stopped working when I replaced the cartridges.  I don't think that this should be a problem.  I replaced the cartridges before.  I have an Epson Stylus NX110 printer/scanner/copier & called Epson, they SUCK.  The printer comes with the computer.  I have installed new drivers & the printer works fine.  I do not have a wireless system, & I don't have a digital camera.  The only other conflict can be I have two Microsoft Security Essentials AND free AVG downloaded as my anti-virus, anti-spyware.

  I know that the new drivers, I installed the printer were great, it was an update of Epson which I figured out.  I as well need the computer & printer. I am disabled & only at home much & this is my link with the outside world.  I do a little writing & letters print & printing (Yes, postal mail) to friends & also letters to additional government assistance of my State & County.  I appreciate all the advice and I'm sorry it's so long.

  One last thing: I keep getting pop-ups from this survey company called five votes.  I have tried everything to remove them, but they reappear.  I do not take surveys & I get rid of pop-ups.  I have my Blocker on MSN and AOL.  Could these pop-ups have corrupted my hard drive? I've been doing them for months, it is very likely.

  Thank you, Karen

  First of all - the 'motherboard' does not mean 'hard drive '.  This means that the "mother".  :-)  The drive is the storage processors is the brain and everything connects through... the "mother".

    
  Second - why sweep you all the months?  Unless you are having a problem - well - I suggest you not to do so.  Heck - you may see a false positive.  Do you have any indication that you have a hardware failure?
    
  Here's what I suggest:
  (1) stop the execution of this "free scan of Dell.
  (2) ensure that the drivers of motherboard, video card, network device and peripheral chipset audio are later you can get - on the Dell site for your specific Service and operating system combination label (drivers and downloads section, use your service number and put in the operating system you are using.)
  (3) never use Geek Squad.
  (4) what is the "MSN Help Menu?
  (5) choose AN antivirus software - two is misguided and may cause problems.
  (6) run some scans of malware with the details, I will give you right after that...
    

  Regarding AntiVirus - free are very good: Avira, AVG, Avast, UnThreat

  You could spend ~ 60USD during two years of eSET NOD32 AntiVirus (not more - just product AntiVirus) and which would be more worthwhile.

  Search for malware:

  Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner. Remove everything it finds.

  Reset.

  The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:
  

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

  You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

• HD is dead on my Dell Inspiron XP SP3 transferred old 4Yr no external HD files. How to move files to my new computer which has Windows 7.

  I just bought a new Inspiron desktop computer that has Windows 7 on it. Many old computer files have been corrupted, however, I was able to save many audio, video, Real Player files, PDF and photo.  I exported my FireFox bookmarks to HTML for the external hard drive.

  I can't understand how to transfer all the information from my external hard drive to the new computer with Windows 7. My level of computer knowledge is advanced beginner. I'm sorry to ask such a simple question I minor dyslexia. However the video, I look at all speaks to move from one computer to another and downloading transfer program.

  Also, I can't put music in my music files, however, once I know how to transfer to my new Win 7 computer where would I put my Real Player downloads, Favorites Fire Fox, so they find themselves in the right place. I tried the Itunes file to transfer from the external hard drive to the new computer where I had downloaded Itunes and it did not work.

  I appreciate any assistance.

  Thank you

  You can use the copy / paste command to copy your files from the external hard drive to the folders such as Documents, pictures, videos in Windows 7.

  When you copy and paste a file, you make a copy of the original file that you can then modify independently of the original file. If you copy and paste a file to a different location on your computer, it's a good idea to give it a different name, so that you'll remember which file is new and which file is the original.

  To copy and paste a file:

  1. Open the location that contains the file you want to copy.

  2. Right click on the file and then click on copy.

  3. Open the location where you want to store the copy.

  4. Right-click on an empty space within the location and then click on paste. The copy of the original file is now stored in the new location.

  5. Select multiple files or folders

     There are several ways to select multiple files or folders.

     • To select a consecutive group of files or folders, click the first item, press on and hold down the SHIFT key and then click the last item.

     • To select multiple files or folders that are near each other, drag the mouse pointer to create a selection around the outside of all the items you want to include.

     • To select nonconsecutive files and folders, press on and hold down the CTRL key and then click each item you want to select.

     • To select all files or folders in a window, the tool bar, click on organize, and then click Select all. If you want to exclude one or more items of your choice, press on and hold down the Ctrl key and then click on the items.

• I sell desktop computer and need to know how to remove all of the pc?

  I sell desktop computer and need to know how to remove all of the pc?

  The most difficult part of the first paragraph is to create the boot floppies - which can be complicated and requires installation of Windows disks.

  Perhaps a third simple but effective alternative is simply to re - install Windows on your computer from the disc that came with your computer or from the recovery partition.  Resettlement will delete all files on the disc and replace them with the New Installation of Windows.  At this point, the fragments of your old files may remain on your hard drive.  So once relocation complete, download and install the freeware 'Eraser' software, run it and you want to specify the "free space" erased on your hard drive.  This will overwrite firmly all the data remains that has not already been overwritten by the Windows Installation.

• I have to press the button 'On' several times to start the small Dell desktop computer.

  After that I turned on the power strip, sometimes I have to press several times the button "On" until the computer stays on.  I see the small lights and most light in the power button lights up, but then they both leave, and the computer turns off.

• Problem with an old Dell desktop computer

  Hey guys :) first post here! Happy to be part of the community!

  My father has so some of these old Dell desktops at work that were purchased second-hand and some of them don't work at all. I was asked to provide assistance and we managed to get most of them and running outside.

  Long story short - when you plug the power cable into the PC, the fan runs for a very short time and the power light flashes green light after that the computer is ready to go.

  The problem with this particular computer is that when you plug the power on the computer the CPU fan starts to spin and power light blinks with a light orange and never stops. By pressing the power button has no effect. The power supply of the computer has been replaced, but the same problem persists (the power supply works normally on other computers). All the problematic capacitors have been replaced on the motherboard (which fixed this issue with other computers) but this has still not had any effect.

  The computer has been tested with its minimum parts bare, stripped of all readers of storage, RAM and anything else, but is still unable to boot to the BIOS or do anything.

  My question is - is this a known problem and what measures would be a good thing to determine the cause of the problem?

  Unfortunately, I do not know the exact model of the computer, but I have some pictures of what you can find here:

• If I downloaded photos on my iphone on my hard drive from the desktop computer, can I remove iphoto library without deleting them on the hard drive?

  I received the message that my iphone storage is almost full.  It is mainly from photos and videos.  I deleted the videos and have uploaded my photos on my hard drive of computer desk top of the page (which is a Dell non Apple products).  Can I now enter into the iphoto library and delete photos without losing those I downloaded on my desktop computer.  If so, how do I?  Thank you D

  iCloud is a synchronization system, not an external 'hard drive '. If you remove them on your device, they will remove icloud. To increase the available space, go settings/iCloud/Photos and select optimize iPhone/iPad storage. That will reduce the space required by 90% when it is fully effective.

  Please don't feel not bad not respond sooner.  I'm always notified when one of the sons that I am working on has a new addition.

  I don't know if you have a specific reason to use the Linux distro you chose or if you consider a recommendation.  I used Ubuntu (prn. oo-boon-too) for several years as a dual boot with Windows.  Not only is it a great distribution, but there is a very good Forum.  Not as good as this , but very good.  The members of the Forum are very useful.  You can give it a thought.  I think they would get you to the top and run very fast.
