installation of my old hdd on my new dell inspiron 530

my old pc was unnecessary and basically terrible. so I bought the inspiron.

I must say I am happy with it so far but I prefer windows xp and it's vista: smileymad:

the only thing that I wanted to use my old PC was my hard drive. as is 80 GB and I thought that perhaps also well put it in the new pc that never did not seem to be a problem with that.

Dell has a 160gig SATA hard drive.

I don't know what is my old drive. This is what is written on it:

DiamondMax Plus 9 80 GB ATA/133 HDD.

I removed it from my old pc.

now, I'm checking maxtor.com I remove the jumper (what is the PIN?) and now it becomes a slave.

I just want to help until I open the dell it please. I'm not very technical, so if you need other info tell me how to find it.

Thank you.

    I suggest updating the BIOS to the latest version before installing the CPU.

    Outlook Express is a 'no '.  This is part of Windows XP.  You better to choose a new e-mail client/application.

    WinAMP is a freeware third party - Yes.

    Seagate Manager likely came with your external hard drive?  This is the third part freeware also - Yes.

    Your printer from Canon ("n")... Depends on the manufacturer of the device for it's support in your new operating system.  Likely Windows 7.  From the link in this paragraph - it seems they have drivers for Windows 7 and Windows 7 64 - bit - so which resembles a Yes as well.

  • My speakers Altec Lansing ADA745 will work with my 530 s the new Dell Inspiron PC?

    My speakers Altec Lansing ADA745 will work with my 530 s the new Dell Inspiron PC?

    I watched updates of the audio driver for my pc and am not sure which one I need or you can even use it.

    Although "4.1" speaker systems are very common, the ADA745 should work without problems on a new system.  I have no connection to the ADA745 info but I guess it would connect everything as you are currently connected to the old PC.  New systems PC audio supports up to 7.1 speaker (with the most common 2.1 or 5.1) systems.  There is no drivers for speakers, however, you need to define the types of speakers in the control panel (e.g. article 4.1, and if this isn't an option, try the 5.1 and see if works well).   Printed with the new PC installation worksheet should detail the audio connections and if not, there is a copy of the Dell manual loaded on your PC and it has the details on the back panel connections.

    In Vista, the sound control panel is accessible by Start/Control Panel/hardware and sound/Sound.

  • Install Windows 7 x 64 on a new Dell Inspiron N5110 with NoOS

    Hello! I recently bought a new Dell Inspiron N5110 with NoOS. Now, I am trying to install Windows 7 Professional x 64 on it from a USB. I made this a hundred times, but now I'm stuck with a problem. After the beginning of the installation it shows me a message:

    A required CD/DVD device driver is missing. I f you have a driver disk, CD/DVD or player of the USN, please insert it now.

    I tried to google for answers to this problem, the only thing I found is that the laptop does not all SATA drivers installed and asks me to install some. However, I can't figure out how to do this. The system doesn't see another Flash DRIVE with drivers on this subject and if I copy the drivers to the root of the USB which I am startup also fails to find the drivers.
    How can I solve my problem? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

    I fix this plug in USB2.0 flash boot, when the plugin USB3.0 discovers same error message.

  • Installed new HARD drive with the new installation of XP, old HDD ShowAs saw as the active partition, how to change this?

    I installed a new HARD drive with a new installation of Windows XP Edition family. I want to keep the old HDD and reformat the drive, but I can't because the second HDD is listed as active in the management of the computer. Why? It's not the drive that contains the operating system (Windows XP) that is initialized from.  I put the BIOS such that the new HARD drive is the boot drive. The old HDD has Windows XP on it, but isn't the startup disk. I just don't understand.
    If only the new HARD drive is installed, the computer management doesn't show that it or any other of its partitions are the active partition (C drive is listed as the system partition, of course).

    How can I get an active partition and no active partition when the new HARD drive is installed on a HARD drive that is not the boot drive, when I have two hard drives installed?

    In case it is necessary, the new HARD drive is a SATA and the old HARD drive is IDE with the cavaliers as a slave.

    The system partition is the Active partition. The system volume contains the system files needed to start Windows, Windows XP, these system files are:

    NTLDR
    Boot.ini
    NTDETECT.COM
    Ntbootdd.sys (present/used only with older SCSI controllers)

    Windows files are not necessarily on the system volume, they can reside on another volume, when on a different volume this volume holding Windows files is called the boot volume.

    When you install Windows on a computer, playing a mixture of IDE and SATA setup discs tends to favor with IDE drives on SATA drives and tends to use the IDE drive to house the system partition, (even if Windows is installed on a different drive).

    Running the command SYSTEM SET at a command prompt may shed some light on the problem...

  • New Dell Inspiron 1764: Problems with signal low connection to wireless networks.

    I have a new laptop Dell Inspiron 1764 I received on 25 June. It is "replace" a Dell Inspiron 9100, who has learned to be too slow and too bulky for my needs. For the purposes of support, the two laptops are running on Windows 7.

    Overall, I love my new Inspiron 1764. However, I noticed the connection/signal strength seriously degraded, with wireless (Dell Wireless 1397 WLAN Mini card) card, compared to my Inspiron 9100 (Dell Wireless 1350 WLAN Mini-PCI card).

    In areas of my home that my 9100 can obtain the power of the complete signal (5 bars), my new 1764 bars 2 or less. This behavior is not as limited to only my house as I have tested in my work and in an area of less than 10 feet away from the wireless router, I have 'Internet connectivity problems.

    I tried twice this morning talk with Dell technical support. The first person I talked to tried to be helpful and initiated at least a DellConnect session with me so that he can check out some of my settings and such (However, why they went twice in my sharing settings I could not determine as they have absolutely nothing to do with the intensity of the signal).

    Unfortunately, I was disconnected from the session when I went to a place that had less signal than just next to my wireless router.

    I then go on the chat support with Dell and received another technician to speak with. I explained my problem, told them that I was in a DellConnect session with the other technician, and they looked to the top of my support contract.

    They then told me that my warranty does not cover software issues and referred me to the software Department and said it would be a supplement. I told them that I did not believe that it is a problem of software in any way, shape, or form. They told me that it must be a matter of adjustment. I spent several hours scouring the internet forums on Dell and other sites check those who have had similar problems. Some of their questions were certainly the software settings, but I still don't yet to find anything that tells me I have an incorrect setting of software.

    So far, I'm standing in my kitchen, tapping on my Inspiron 9100 with a full 5 bars, while my Inspiron 1764 is sitting next to me with a skinny 2 bars, and I am literally standing 7 feet above the room which houses my Linksys WRTU54G-TM router.

    Personally, I suspect a faulty wireless card, but how to convince Dell to hear my case and replace it instead of trying to bilk me for support of useless software?

    I hope Dell Tech Support bed actually this post, or people with the same problem can Dell refer to my previous post describing the problem and the fix.

    It IS a PROBLEM of MATERIAL WITH the ANTENNA, AND VERY PROBABLY THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN a DECK CONNECTION at the ANTENNA of the PLATE, from connections TAPE FOIL INDIVIDUAL at the ANTENNA of the PLATE, THAT DELL MUST HAVE RESPONSE BETWEEN WHAT MINE PORTABLE has BEEN CARRIED OUT AND THE SPARE ROOM WAS MADE. THE PROBLEM IS NOT SOFTWARE, PROVIDER OR ROUTER, IT IS THE PLASTIC WITH THE ANTENNA CASE!

    Dell is in fact losing more money with the hours of technical support through software patches and sending technicians with new wireless cards that does not solve the problem. They need to send and replace the plastic case behind the LCD screen with the updating of antenna and connections.

    Good luck!
