Inspiron and XPS

I am looking for a desktop computer will be mainly used to work (when I work from home), watch movies and surf the internet. In terms of work, I'm going to need the computer to be able to manage several Excel and PowerPoint files open at the same time, the use of Excel add ins like Solver and not much else. I wonder if it's worth paying more for the XPS or if the Inspiron will (and which model recommend you). I will not use the computer for work that often - I just need to run when I'm. I currently have a laptop XPS that I really like. I have w

Thank you!

I have a couple of laptops Inspiron R Series in my family and they are used for school (which includes spreadsheets and I used several worksheets at the same time very well), they Streaming Netflix and use them for low end games.  I think the Inspiron system would for your needs, but the XPS specification will of course do everything faster and will have a better choice of graphics card, so overall that it depends on how much you want to spend and how concerned you are with graphics and speed.

I hope this helps.

  • I use Vista Home Premium on a laptop Dell 1545 Inspiron and Dell 968AIO wireless printer. I can't print the attachments of email but I can print several pages on the internet.

    I use Vista Home Premium on a laptop Dell 1545 Inspiron and Dell 968AIO wireless printer. I can't print the attachments of email but I can print several pages on the internet. I updated drivers and tried everything that other people have told me to try on other forums to the best of my abilities. I'm not otherwise qualified in computer science. Also, I will mention this all started when I restored my computer laptop back to factory settings. I did it because that's all I could think about. As far as coming back on my laptop, he did do the trick. Thus, suggestions, thoughts will be appreciated.

    I have Optiplex 755 and XPS 420 - multiple

    They have little big machines for virtualization.

    I have currently all "maxed out" on them to 8 GB of RAM each, which is the maximum listed for each.

    Often, I found these "maximum" specifications based on the largest available at the time of publication dimm and not necessarily a limitation of the system.

    Or the other of these machines support DIMMs to 4 GB?

    What is microsoft xps document writer and xps Viewer and how to use it?

    Original title: xps document writer and Viewer

    Hi arunin,.

    An XPS document is a file that is saved in the XML Paper Specification, or .xps, file format. You can create documents XPS (.xps files) by using any program that you can print from Windows; However, you can only view XPS documents by using an XPS Viewer, such as the one included in this version of Windows.

    Hello

    I'm assuming that Ubuntu is the only OS installed on the computer, and you have a XP install disc.

    The hard disk must be erased all traces of the file system,

    Download and burn to cd Darik Boot and Nuke. Start and wipe the drive hard when you are finished it will appear for XP like a new hard drive.

  • Stretched display of Dell Inspiron and ST2010

    Just bought a Dell Inspiron 3646.  With the help of my existing Dell ST2010 monitor.  When I go to the native resolution of 1600 x 900 images are all stretched horizontally.  I currently set at 1280 x 1024, so I can read it, but there it goes down and I lose 2 to 3 inches on each side.  But at least it's legible.

    I tried to adjust the adapter and the side of the monitor.

    Can I use this monitor mode full screen?  Previously, work very well with an older Dell desktop computer.

    Thank you

    Everything said is

    Intel HD graphics card

    But I had to work.  Switched to one HDMI cable and it seems to be the scale correctly now.  Must not like the VGA cable.

    Thank you

    Can I install p2714t on my new xps 8700 special edition touchscreen monitor?

    Yes, you can. Strangely, these two products have even been sold together in some cases: (external, not associated with DELL, Web site for reference only) http://fotki.yandex.ru/users/dell-cis/view/938987/?page=0

    As a general rule, all what you have to do is install the drivers and plug it and potentially to calibrate.

  • New 750TI of nVidia and XPS 8500 card?

    Wow!

    I had been worried about the power supply power when buying a video card more powerful for my XPS 8500.  700 series from nVidia is the beach, I hope to choose, to replace my 'right' TG 640 card oem.

    The new GTX 750 it looks really good. It's a new radical design and functionality has pointed out, is its low power requirements.

    "Twice the performance and half the energy consumption of the previous generation cards."

    It is now on sale for less than $200.  It's a double-wide.  My question today is: what is the best way to sort the different suppliers of package?

    Dell performs several cards from PNY nVidia in the inventory, so on that ground alone, it will probably be my choice.  Does anyone have experiences of good/bad with them?  What other major suppliers such as: MSI, EVGA or Gigabyte?

    I thank the previous suggestion about the GTX 660, that he would work with the budget of power - but this 750 TI deserves a thorough review for any owner of XPS 8500, wanting a better map of the game. If one cannot not have shoe horned in the case, I'll think hard about installing one in my XPS Gen 3 old faithful!

    You don't have to buy a brand PNY, just because Dell sells because it doesn't mean anything. Any brand will do.  I have the EVGA 750 it. EVGA is probably the best selling partner of Nvidia.  If I bought one today, I would certainly consider getting the MSI HERE.  The reason is that the fan accelerates only execution around 32% compared to my EVGA clocked at 42%, which makes it much more quiet and nothing you can do to reduce the fixed fan speed used by the manufacturer.

    These new chips run very cool, so there is no reason to have fans operating at 42% in my opinion.  The MSI card does not require an additional power of 6-pin connection.  Some do it including the EVGA I, but this isn't really a concern.  This is only a concern for those who do not have the power on their power supply connector.

  • There is a case at this time for and XPS 8500 for $749.00 (is the gate of the hell of dante)?

    I have owned 7 valleys and seen the quality and the customer service going down the tubes in the last decade.  Part of it (and I'm not racist or great nationalists) is that the salespeople speak English, but the technicians do not, so I can't explain what I need at least an hour (half is please and thank you).

    I would get the Intel 3770, but the case is small, there is no place for hardware upgrades, cooling and power supplies are, at best, marginal, and the software is the.  Should I just go with a full turn construction, since what I want to do is record the music for local artists and videos for my community television station?  I just have this feeling that the 8500 XPS will be a disappointment.  I don't mind spending $1000 +, but I want something that I can REALLY use.

    Can some people give me their opinions.

    Thank you

  • S2340T and XPS 8700

    I installed as follows.  Connected the USB cable from the monitor (S2340T) to PC (XPS 8700).  Connected PC HDMI cable for monitor.  Power cord plugged in.  The monitor is turned on.  PC turned on.   Windows 8 is displayed correctly on the screen.  But the mouse and keyboard slow.  Too easy touch.  Often, I have to repeat same thing several times.  plays background music - same short sounds.

    If I unplug the USB cable, keyboard & mouse then behaves normally, and the music stops playing.  It proves that if HDMI and USB is plugged at the same time, there is a mismatch.  But then touch screen does not like he needs the USB connection.  No software not loaded for the monitor.

    What is the problem

    Support me have visited on the site.  Replaced the motherboard & all USB 3.0 ports.  And... system works normally.  In fact, it proves that DELL has never tested my system before leaving the factory.

    Power was turned off for long periods between controls

    Tried to restart after the power button / stop on tour in for 20 seconds more to clear.

    Confirmed monitor is by linking them to a laptop.

    Changed the monitor and Tower power cables.

    Tried all 4 combinations of outputs DVI monitor video card round entered

    I tried VGA connection

  • FieldChangeListener for the custom field does not...

    Hi all

    I searched for him and almost all positions tried but failed to get the solution of it. Here is my code. My problem is when I click on the individual images the fieldchangelistener must be called and the message.

    package com.samples;
