• Card support FireWire on Inspiron 660

  I bought your desktop Inspiron 660 with Win 8 (original version, I think) a year or two ago.  Eventually want to use devices USB Audio (sampler Edirol UA-25, helmet DAC etc.) which are not supported by base 8 Win, the cheapest solution was to upgrade to a new version of Win 7 (I got a Dell version) with a new HDD in the desktop.   This arrangement works very well with all my USB audio devices.

  Then, I want to run an audio interface box 4-Channel M-Audio Firewire and Firewire PCI express card to receive from eBay.  It's a 1394, unbranded with chip WB381.  It appears in Device Manager - no reported problems. However the menu sounds in the Panel sees as an available playback or recording device, and the M-Audio box reports also no link.  I tried all three drivers available in Windows 7 for the card, as suggested elsewhere, without success.  M-audio box works OK with Win XP on another computer with a Firewire port that is provided by an OEM, but I don't have any other PC with ports PCI express to test the card...

  This is likely to be a problem of Dell software or a hardware/driver PCI problem.  Maybe I should get a card with a different chipset.  I note, there is a lot of posts related to problems with Firewire and Dell computers.  Are there tests I can run to determine what is happening.

  Thanks in advance

  Windows 8 and 8.1 firewire drivers are laminated.

  The only way to solve this problem is to use a card with Texas Instruments Chipset and copy the LEGACY drivers from a windows machine 7.

• Update drivers Inspiron 660 s Intel

  I had a failure of the update via Windows Update my Intel Driver. It kept failing. I went to the Intel Download Center, and he's looking for me. There is no new update listed under my Dell computer, than I already have. Apparently, he had two types of updates available for my computer at Intel chipset driver. Now, Intel found two drivers, I believe that he installed a. Another keep. This is the exe for WIN64_152822.exe and it fails every time. He said to close all programs. I thought I did. Although Carbonite will not let you go out just. I used the Task Manager to close a bunch of them. So I froze just Carbonite, because knock out would not work via the Task Manager. I couldn't leave my Eset Nod32 either, so I disabled it temporarily. I didn't stop all Intel running in fear, it would not continue with the update of the driver. Has anyone dealt with this issue?

  There is no need to update the graphics driver Intel unless one is located on the site of Dell and is recommended. Otherwise, leave well enough alone.  I only update of the dedicated graphics drivers for video cards.

• Installation of card mSATA on Inspiron 15R special edition (7520)

  Hey

  I have the inspiron 15r is with 1 TB of HDD.

  I would like to add an mSATA card to my system to use the TSRI.

  It is possible now?

  I am skeptical because I've read online that the systems which were not delivered with 32 GB mSATA card, does not port mSATA for later installation.

  When I bought the system at that time dell had the option to add card 32 GB mSATA in the customization section, but now, dell has removed the section full customization from the Web site. And in the pre-configured templates, there is no option for card mSATA.

  Please remove this doubt and if possible to post pictures of the system and the daughter card where mSATA card can be installed.

  If you need more details about the configuration of my system, feel free to ask.

  Thanks in advance

  Hey everybody!

  All those who are willing to buy Dell Inspiron 15R edition special (7520) and want to update the system with card mSATA manually after the purchase, should know that there are two different configurations with which the system is sold. While on one of these configuration it is a mSATA port available on the (number N7JHH) daughter card in the system. While on the other configuration no mSATA port is available on the daughtercard (number MRDMM) present in the system.

  Most of the Dell representatives have no information on this subject and they are declaring openly that mSATA cards are compatible with 7520. Don't go by their words and ask specifically if the above mentioned daughter card is present in the system or not. Only a very few of them are stating "If the system was not ordered with card mSATA probably your card mother daughter won't mSATA slot", that too after days of investigation.

  If you hope to upgrade the system with card mSATA, then my advice to you would be to take a prudent decision before buying.

  See you soon!

  

• Update the Dell Inspiron 660 graphics card

  I had my Dell Inspiron 660 for a little over a year and am now looking to upgrade the graphics card. It's pretty close to it, but mine works on Windows 7:

  In my opinion, he has a power supply 300 watt, 8 GB of ram, integrated Intel HD graphics card and is the complete Office Tower (not mini). I'm tired of playing games on low heat and would like a card that can handle parameters of medium-high on the games. I could upgrade food if necessary, but would like to keep all of the budget under $ 200. I heard the AMD Radeon 7750 may work with a 300 Watt power supply, but I don't want to take the risk of harming the computer. One of these cards would be suitable for my current setup:

  http://www.Amazon.com/XFX-DisplayPort-PCI-Express-FX775...

  or

  http://www.Amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-1024MB-graphics-01G-...

  Or do I have to switch to a diet that is higher (like this one), and then that the cards would be good under $150?

  http://www.Amazon.com/Corsair-Builder-series-Watt-CX500...

  You can use the 650 GTX because it requires a power supply cable 6 pin that does not have 300 watt POWER supply.  The only one that works is the 7750 HD because it does not require any additional power cling. Your best bet for the game would be to upgrade your power supply.  With the upgrade of the PSU, I will seek to obtain the R7 X 260 HERE.  This is the best you can do for less than $150.

• Graphics card for Inspiron 660 s

  Hi I do not know much about computers, but I have a Dell Inspiron 660 s and I want to upgrade the integrated video card. What video card will fit my diet better computer and power?

  7750 HD is very energy efficient.  He's going only to use about 50 watts of power when the games and a lot less when not.  In the comments of this card, those who bought used it on their 660 s Dell and doesn't seem to have problems.  The 7750 HD and HD 6570 will probably all have the same energy, but the 7750 HD is going to be much better for the games.  You would have to put down the way of things on the HD 6570 against the 7750.  Just do not overclock the card or you might have problems on such a small power supply.

  If you want to run at higher resolutions and settings to play with games today, I say forget the HD 6570.  However, even the 7750 HD won't all play on highest settings.  It's just that the 7750 HD is the best that you can possibly do for the system you have.  Office supplies Dell used to make more power in their slim cases.  I have a 275 watt in mine.  I would never buy a computer that had only a power SUPPLY 220 watt PSU if I had the game in mind.  My guess is that you would use probably around 175 total watts on the system depending on your CPU.  Obviously, the HD 6570 is half the cost of the 7750 HD so it depends on what you can live with and be happy.

  In conclusion, a 220 watt POWER supply is not plenty to run with the HD 7750, but others have run it on the 660 s so that's all I can say.  It's really up to you.  I give it a try if I was trying to play modern games?  Yes, I probably would.  But then again, I'm surprised by the games, people say that they can play with the HD 6570.  If your resolution is 1920 x 1080, then forget it in my opinion.  If your just running 1440 x 900 or 1280 x 1024, then you might be right.

• Card graphic Inspiron 660 recommendations

  Hello

  I'm looking for any recommendation for graphics cards of the Inspiron 660. Preference that the card will be just straight pop and help me to run Battlefield 3.

  Thank you

  The Inspiron 660 has following options available for the graphics Chipset:

  • Integrated Intel HD graphics chipset.
  • nVIDIA GeForce GT 620 (per round).
  • AMD Radeon HD 7570.
  • NVIDIA GeForce 640GT (for Mini Tower).

  In 660 Inspiron power is 300W for mini tower and Slim Tower is 220W.

  This is the graphics card for Battlefield 3 requirement:

  Minimum: ATI Radeon 3870 or more, nVidia GeForce 8800 GT or higher.
  Recommended: nVidia GeForce GTX 560 or ATI Radeon 6950.

  For graphics cards above, the energy supply needs are superior to present food in the computer. You may need to upgrade the power supply, if the graphics card is upgraded.

• Inspiron 660 - undetected graphics card

  I have an i5 Inspiron 660 recent MT with Windows 8.

  I installed a graphics card fully working Radeon HD5670. However, starting with the plugged card I don't received a completely black screen or no signal. I switched the video cable to the video integrated and found that the Radeon does not even appear in the Windows Device Manager.

  I need to change a setting in the bios for the card detectable?

  Thank you all for your suggestions.

  The problem turned out be the Dell power supply - there is not enough amperage on the 12V rail. I installed a decent replacement and all this work a - OK.

• Best gaming video card, I could put in 660 Dell i5-3330 model: i660-5629BK, WITH a PS upgrade

  I had a Dell 660 i5-3330 model: i660-5629BK for my son and he began to play with it a lot of.

  The 660 Dell came with a 300w PS but no leg power to fuel a discrete video card if it was installed.  So I installed a 400w to try the below map.

  I tried this week a SAPPHIRE 100366 - 2L Radeon R7 260 X 2 GB 128 - bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support video Card.  It has the smallest form factor and fits easily.  But for some reason I couldn't make it work.  Finally it seemed just DOA.  So I'm back.  Maybe another one of those.  But if you've heard talk about this card not working with 660 chime please.  I tried powering with a 400w PS, maybe that it was part of the problem as Newegg site said to use 500w.  But we never even played games on it as it just would not work.  Lit black screen thereafter not to send any signal on the screen.  Also had problems with the installation of the Catalyst software.  At one point, the map seems to work but once was more Catalyst is installed the screen went "on black" and that he would not recover.  Then, when I uninstalled and tried again it was as if no signal at all was going to the screen, as if I had disconnected the DVI cable.

  Anyway, what other cards could fit the 660?  I'm ready to go more powerful if the card would fit this case. I am also prepared to buy a PS with a higher power.  My son is really getting into the PC game and I would make him a good video card.

  Recommendations and ideas?

  All power 400W made in the land of we type the power output on the outside, up to 150W to 400W power upgrade is not going to work.  You need a certified EPS12v power supply.  $29 or less power supplys are fake and can burn everything in your system.

• Inspiron 660, power led?

  I have a desktop Dell Inspiron 660. The good news is that I have a very high quality HD camcorder.  The bad news is that it requires a FireWire port to connect with my computer. No problem, I thought. I got a PCI to provide one. It requires that a power cable be connected to make it work. I jumped to open the case expects to find the usual complement of lines of unused energy available for such use. In fact, there is nothing at all.

  The desktop computer Inspiron 660 doesn't have the old white PCI ports. There the new black locations of PCIe (PCI Express).

  

  Desktop Inspiron 660 PC =
  Three PCIe x 1 connectors
  A PCIe x 16 video card location

  PCIe cards should not require a power wire. You need to buy a FireWire PCIe x 1 card.

• Dell Inspiron 660 AMD Radeon HD 7800 series BSOD

  Recently, I have put my Dell Inspiron 660 with a new graphics card, an AMD Radeon HD 7800. At the same time, I improved the power source to a Corsair Builder Series CXM modular 80 PLUS Bronze certified ATX/EPS power supply 500W.

  I installed the card, update drivers and disabled the integrated graphics card. I tried to disable the onboard graphics via BIOS but there is no option to disable it in the BIOS, the AMD Radeon also is not running in the BIOS. If I uninstall the onboard graphics, the computer just re - installs on reboot.

  The card works for everyday tasks, but whenever I try to launch a game, it works fine without any problems for a few minutes and then crash with a BSOD. Then, the computer restarts and is as usual.

  The Inspiron 660 comes with the processor intel core i3-2130, 4 GB Ram and a 64-bit operating system.

  Any help at all would be much appreciated.

  Then, you need to get a more expensive food.

• Updating desktop Inspiron 660 s graphics

  I have a desktop Dell Inspiron 660 s running with 6 GB of memory, 1 to hard drive and Intel HD graphics. I want to improve my graphics in order to allow a better gaming experience.

  Thanks for any help!

  I think I have a small Tower because it doesn't have a lot of empty space inside. Is it possible to have a card not in the Tower?

  The GTX 750 will not work.  Only low-profile cards will be suitable to the 660 s.  You also only a 220 Watt power supply.  I run the HD 6570 HERE in 660 s who does well enough with the games.  Even if you can still find them (overpriced) because they have been abandoned, the 7750 HD HERE worked in the 660 s and was the best card you could get.  The Sapphire is available only used on ebay, but other brands are still there.  The HD 6570 would be higher than your Intel HD graphics and for the price can be your best buy.  You cannot run the cards outside your Tower.

• Inspiron 660 built-in sound

  This may sound stupid, but it's here.

  Since the beginning of January, I have an Inspiron 660, proc I5, 8 GB mem, 2 TB hd, Nvidia Gfore graphics, integrated 5.1 surround sound.

  I still have Sound Blaster 4.1 surround speakers. Green and black 3.5 mm Sockets.

  The pc has only pink (mic), green (speaker or headphone) and blue (line).

  Helpdesk told me only green jack is sufficient (right, left/right/for/in the back on two analog cables?) but I need new speakers.

  Question: How can I really connect the speakers to enjoy the sound surround announced?

  Hi Steffenwolt,

  Inspiron 660 doesn't have a sound card integrated 5.1. The system has 2.1 channel audio, therefore, 4.1 surround speakers would not work.

  Please answer for any clarification.
