Inspiron 3847, no audio, Windows 8.1
The computer is new, came with Windows 8.1, but has no sound because it was out of the box.
I reinstalled the Realtek sound card drivers, but there is no sound. The CPU connects to the monitor Dell 24 - S2440L monitor via a VGA cable.
Check in the sounds option in Control Panel of speakers shows are necessary. In my view, there is a message in his icon in the lower right that no speakers or headphones are connected.
Looked at the Dell manual at ftp://ftp.dell.com/Manuals/all-products-Infodev/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_inspiron_desktop/inspiron-3847-desktop_Owner%27s%20Manual_en-us.pdf
and page 11, it seems they have a connector audio front panel
Run the Windows troubleshooting utility that did not help.
In Device Manager, I see peripheral Bluetooth Audio, audio from Intel, Realtek High Definition that have all the correct drivers Audio display.
Dell support think if I change the OS to Windows 7, I can get sound, but I have to buy the Windows 7 operating system
I was thinking more PC today come with an integrated sound card and external speakers are additional.
What could be the cause of the lack of audio? The volume is not set to mute.
I went to REALTEK website and downloaded a new driver yesterday.
It seems to work.

There is a topic centered on it (www.dell.com/.../EN), but the model inspiron 3847 isn't in the list. Is this error only or any other problem with that?
Thank you very much LPIt comes to Audio board systems. This issue should have been moved to the Forum of OS from Microsoft? In the future, let me know by PM and I will move them for you.

Updated Inspiron 3847 of Win 7 Pro to Win Pro 8.1
We recently purchased Inspiron 3847 4 to replace some machines XP being retired.
They came with Windows 7 Pro installed and a «license for Windows 8.1 Pro»
Each came with a DVD titled:
Operating system
Already installed on your computer,
Recovery media Windows 8.1 for Windows 8.1 products, 64-bit
I expected there would be a few instructions on how to upgrade 7 Pro to Pro 8.1, or with the PC or online, but so far I have not found anything. Is my only option to do a full install from the DVD? The warnings, I need to know?
Thank you very much!
No, you can upgrade. Put in the disc and choose the upgrade path (not customized) to do an upgrade of Windows 8. You can do a clean install of Windows 8 on top of Windows 7, but you don't have to. You can consider running Windows 8 analysis tool to find out if you will need additional drivers after installation or if your installed software may or may not have known problems with it.

Second hard drive Dell Inspiron 3847
Can someone direct me for information on the installation of a second hard drive for Inspiron 3847 computer for the purpose of the image upwards using the Acronis True Image Home software upward? There is room for an optical drive, which is totally alien to me, but nothing is said nowhere in the hardware in the user manual on the addition of second hard drive that seems to be a pretty normal material adding. No sense in this matter. First time forum thank you poster
toplap
Dell has not released the procedures to install an additional SATA hard drive, the Inspiron 3847 has a 3.5 Bay ", one for the second hard drive next to the main hard drive, there should be a set of rails located in the Bay, two 6-32 X 1/4, Phillips head screws are required to secure the Rails.
Procedures on pages 26 to 28 of the owners manual should give you an idea of what is required for installation.
You will need a SATA data cable, there should be a spare connector to SATA power inside the housing.
After you have installed the drive, enter the system setup and make sure the hard drive is "on" [We] and recognized.
For Windows to recognize the second hard drive, it must be partitioned and formatted.
Go to control panel, administrative tools, computer management, storage, disk management, right click on the new drive, select format, then you can assign a drive letter.

Dell Inspiron 700 m with Windows XP is slow
I searched the Internet and discovered that you can reinstall using winnt32.exe. I tried and installed on another partition on my drive hard (I dunno really what I do.) The newly installed XP on a different partition has one problem: he can't connect to internet because I think it doesn't have the drivers and I do not have the CD for the drivers. So in my computer, it has 2 hard drives: disk Local (c) and (d), (c) one is the original. So I want to start Windows XP by using the C: drive, but it starts by using the D: drive. I tried disk management, but it is said: the RPC server is unavailable. Any help? Thank you!
* original title - so I have a Dell Inspiron 700 m with Windows XP, which is with me for 5 years and now is slow as f. I wanted to reinstall XP but I didn't have the CD.*
Sorry, but I think I lost it :( I live in the Philippines and I don't think that we have a center of Dell here. Is there another way?
Online. Go to the Dell website, enter the number of your computer and you should be able to order a replacement CD. If you find my answer helpful, please click the button "Vote as helpful"! Thank you!

Model of the computer Inspiron 3847
You can use the best cards, but they need a better diet.
I use CS750M of Corsair and a GTX570. Others have used up to GTX970, but only 9 inches long or less in the case of cards. So check the dimensions before you buy the card. The map below works fine with the EPS12V ready haswell of power upgrade.

I have a Dell Inspiron 3847
Updated 650 W power supply
8 GB ram
Intel i3 processor
I would like to know some of the GPU, I could use for the games on my rig?
Unfortunately, the video slot machine is short.12 inches long cards do not physically go in nor be 10 inches long cards.
I use a Radeon 250th R7.
http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814121800
With the upgrade PSU and R7 260 X should be fine, as long as it's a short card.
http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16814202081
Power to the comes of power connections PCI-E on the upgraded 650W power supply. A sovereign plastic will tell you what does or does not fit. More than 8.5 inches is probably 10 to 12 inches does not work is not physically in. You can use a plastic rule to see this for yourself. 8.5 inch seems to be Max.

Dell Inspiron 3847 - what to buy to upgrade SSD?
I just picked up an Inspiron 3847 and am looking to upgrade to an SSD.
I think I'm going to need:
2.5 "BRACKET
SATA cable
I need a SATA III card or the existing interface works (I couldn't find clear specifications on what was actually the existing interface)?
Something else I'm missing?
Thank you!
You cannot install an SSD as boot disk while the original drive is hung.
There will be problems.
You can install an ssd after reclassification DBAR to 1.7.5.64 and then do a 16 GB or more usb flash recovery.
Then install the SSD drive
and then optimize it.
Then put the old drive as a secondary.
I usually recommend INTEL Retail readers for this so that you get of the optimization tools.
