My power button is stuck on my Dell Studio XPS 435 t/9000

Button has always been a problem, but usually pop backup after a certain time. This time he is REALLY stuck. I have the cover off-side, but there is much too much in the way of the power switch. Is there a way to lift the top cover without breaking the case?

  • DELL Studio XPS 435 t/9000 card reader problem

    I have received my computer desk DELL XPS9000 exactly one month ago. In the first week, the hard drive has failed. If Dell sent a technician has replaced the hard drive.

    Last week, the card reader does not read the SD card. I found that there is a "unknown device" under Bus computer USB controllers, the Device Manager. I was following result after runing DELL self-test - "error initializing Test results: device, 5 d 00 error Code: 0009, Msg: UUTUSBTM - DEVICE_INITIALIZATION_FAILURE user must attach the RH 3 port unit and re-start the test.

    Contacted DELL XPS technical support. The agent could not solve the problem after you install several drivers. He will then plan to send a technician to replace the card reader.

    It seems that I am not alone with this problem. I wonder if there is lack of system design with this nice computer.

    I've had this problem forever. Problem is that the media player is left in a State of 'strange' because of a BSOD, and I have not found the cause of THE BSOD this.

    My 435 t comes with Vista, and not until I upgraded to W7 I was able to get a handle on this. W7 has reported that the device did not work. Before this Dell replaced the unit and cable. This device appararurent again, only to stay for about 2 weeks. I had it happen once before too, and support me try to remove and reinsert the cables, but I couldn't reach them (support hung up before I could try) and had only tried the device itself, not the motherboard. I called back and said I could not and they sent the parts. Later arrived before the parts I decided to try again by taking unscrew, but I've loosened it and feared the screw would fall into the system and it has tightened. The unit was working again? However, two weeks later he failed. Items sent and installed and it worked.

    2 weeks about go by and it fails. Dell asked me to reinstall Vista and format during the installation. I hesitated and pushed them to do the following. Send a motherboard... and they did it, it was installed and the machine worked. Change the motherboard to solve another problem, 2nd DVD drive opens randomly and narrow when I open the first time, after that, worked OK. That stopped happening.

    After that, I installed W7. Got a BSOD running DVD Flick (there are reports of this failure on Dell because IASTOR, the SATA driver) and the re-start, W7 has reported that a USB device does not work. Well, the media player was gone... open the folder, messed with the wires on the side of the motherboard, case closed, re-boot and it worked again... now I know the "fix."

    It turns out that the fix is REALLY SIMPLE, pull the power cord, wait for the green light to go a little longer, plug the power cord from back in and reboot. Fixed a problem.

    Well, I'd call it a work-around. The real problem is the device USB is not be initialized, either because the BIOS does not power on or the unit was in such a State, it could not be. Removal of power resets the it.

    I hope it works for you.

  • Dell studio xps 435/9000 new cpu required

    Hello

    I posted here earlier on my dell studio xps 435/9000 beeping non stop on start up.  I discovered that the CPU is the problem and must be replaced.

    I have an Intel Dual core i7 (socket LGA1366) processor, what are my options for replacement?

    Can I he move to a Quad core as long as the plug is the same, or should I stick to a dual core.

    If I replace the processor should I replace the motherboard as well?

    Is there a way to know if a particular processor is compatible with my motherboard? (the other is the same)?

    Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    alymad

    The following processors are compatible with the Dell Studio XPS 435 t/9000:

  • Studio XPS 435 t / 9000 power supply problem

    My diet giving me in my Studio XPS 435 t/9000. The fan is very noisy, but otherwise there is no obvious symptoms. Since the system is about 5 years, I was planning to change some parts.

    My questions are:

    (1) what could be the cause of the fan to be strong, and what are the potential problems with that?

    (2) a system of 435MT 475W PSU would be compatible, or would I need specifically a 435 t?

    The first thing I would do is keep the Office of your garage. Open the side cover. Use compressed air can and blow all the dust that has accumulated in the tower. Blowing from the rear of the PSU and the inside of it. Replace the cover and retest for the noise of the PSU. The power supply 360w on Studio XPS 435MT will not work. The only Dell validated PSU for the Studio XPS 435 t / 9000 has been F217J 475w. The best video cards, we validated our eating 475w were:
    2XTG4 AMD Radeon HD5870
    5X2CH Nvidia GeForce GTX260

    You might consider installing a power supply of higher power, but with a single card video, you need something bigger then a 650w. You could then spend the video card for sale retail Nvidia GTX660.

  • Cannot start Dell Studio XPS 9100 - is the PSU?

    These symptoms are compatible with a faulty PSU?

    I have a 4 years, processor Dell Studio XPS Desktop Intel i7 960 (expired warranty) 18 GB DIMM: 64 Bit Windows 7 ultimate OS.

    Computer will not start. (Dell 0M1J3H 525W) POWER supply has a green LED on the back of the envelope of the computer with a black switch diagnosis. When the computer reads the green light is on.

    If I press the Start button nothing happens - the white light on the Start button does not illuminate. But if I press the button to start for at least 12 seconds then release and press it again the logo Dell at the edge of the bezel turns on for a second and the fans turn at 20 degrees, but the computer does not start and there is no light on the Start button. The same thing happens if I press the black test on the power supply switch after the button of start for about 12 seconds. If I quickly press the test switch repeatedly from 40 to 50 times, four fans will turn a little bit but stop as soon as I stop to press the test switch. If a power is to learn in the light of the collar and the fans, but the computer starts and the green light does not go or flash. As directed by Dell, the green light is supposed to be activated when the current flows through the power supply and the green light is supposed to flash if I press the test switch when the computer is turned off.

    More Dell' diagnostic instructions I disconnected the motherboard and all the readers and the video card in the PSU, but the test was always negative, that would normally indicate a defective power supply.

    However, if the front bezel blinking on and fans to be powered for a fraction of a second, which excludes a failure of the power supply?

    GENERAL INFORMATION: One night several months ago fans have started racing as the computer was overclocking but my meter showed only 30% CPU usage. Computer subsequently began to lose power and restart at random times.  No crash dumps or stop. Just a loss of power and a reboot. Sometimes the auto restart would work and sometimes it wouldn't. When the computer restarts will not it will not re-start and there was no light white or orange, when I pressed the Start button. If I hold the start 12 seconds or more and then released it and press start logo collar flash momentarily, but no start and no other light. I would try restarts several times, sometimes by pressing the button start hundreds of times before the computer would finally boot. When you start the computer it would normally sometimes several days before losing power again.

    The last restart was more than a week and the computer normally lasted more than a week until yesterday when he lost power.

    I think that the power supply may be bad. But the only other time that I replaced a power supply on an old HP Pavilion. In this case, the computer was completely dead. I'm confused by the momentary illumination of the Dell logo on the collar and the shaking of the power to the fans. Which excludes a failure or default PSU?

    The button BIST says that the power supply is bad.  The BIST button isn't the power button.

    The LED on the back does not mean that the power supply is good.

    The BIST (built in Self test) is LED and button are for.

  • Dell Studio XPS 8000 - Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti Graphics Card

    Hi I have a Dell Studio XPS 8000. Information on the system it's an Intel i7 CPU 860-2.8 GHz 2.79 GHz and 6 GB of RAM. operating system 64-bit, x 64 based processor.

    I would like to know if I could adapt an Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti graphics (2 GB, GDDR5, PCI-Express 3.0) without any problem? Or is there a better option?

    The current map graphic is a GeForce GTS 240, that it came with.

    I searched the internet to find out that if that would be ok, but became confused if the power supply is sufficient, the appearance of it bed 350w max power. I can't find some people say no and Yes.

    You're better than replace the power supply Dell with a retail food more high wattage. Then the video card will be fine. Read your Manual for instructions.

  • Question of graphics Dell Studio XPS 8100

    I plan to upgrade my desktop computer Dell Studio XPS 8100 with a new graphics card, so that I can play new games such as Skyrim and Star Wars the old republic.

    Can someone tell me which of these cards is best for this purpose, corresponds to my computer and if other changes are needed (ideally no)?

    EVGA GTX 550 VGA (GDDR5, PCI-Express, 2 GB)
    Sapphire 6750 (PCI Express, DDR3, 2 GB)
    Sapphire 6790 (PCI-Express, GDDR5, 1 GB)
    PALIT GTX 550 Ti (GDDR5, PCI Express, 1 GB)

    Thanks in advance,

    Sikkaech

    Based on the recommended for Skyrim card, you will need to go with the HD 6790 or GTX 550 it.  However, your biggest problem is food that is only 350 watts.  For all these cards, a higher power is recommended by the manufacturer.  The HD 6790 is the best on the list with the GTX 550 Ti in 2nd.  I'll take the other two on your list because they would fall the recommended card, but they would always play the games.   I would recommend if you upgrade the power supply to go with a unit of minimum mark of 500 watts with the necessary connections.

    Skyrim recommended card: 1 GB RAM NVIDIA or AMD ATI video card (Nvidia GeForce GTX 260 or higher; ATI Radeon 4890 or higher).  Old video card then the ones I showed would be comparable.

    If you choose not to change your diet, a GTS 450 or HD 6750 can work.  I don't see much interest to get a card of 2 GB to this level.  It's going to be better than GDDR3 memory GDDR5.

  • Dell studio xps 1645 sound driver IDT works only when it is installed.

    I have the dell studio xps 1645 with windows 7 home premium 64-bit installed on. I have a problem since I format the laptop and reinstalled windows 7 and driver.

    The problem is that with the IDT sound card driver. When I start up the laptop, I couldn't find any noise until then I install the IDT audio driver which is from the website of dell (dell.com.au) under the drivers of dell studio xps 1645 by download. Sounds appears when I installed this driver, but it is not as it should. I mean whenever I do reboot or turn off and then on the laptop, the sound will not come up to what I do reinstall the driver again. The thing is that I have to reinstall the driver whenever I want to use the laptop. can you help me out of this problem? is there any solution for this? I did some research until I get the way to recover my sound, but yes I'm stuck with this relocation pilot to use sound. I did troubleshooting of windows and he said nothing wrong with it. I'll also technician support close to home and they couldn't find anything wrong. I therefore ask microsoft in the hope that they know the way

    . Thank you.

    Hi Felix,.

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of community of Microsoft.

    I understand that the sound of your system plays only after you update the audio drivers. The question could arise due to the installation of the corrupt or incompatible driver package.

    Before troubleshooting, I would like to inform you that the drivers for the model of your system on the Dell Web site are displayed for Windows Vista, by default. So, I recommend you to change the operating system to Windows 7 while choosing for pilots.

    In addition, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Try running the fixit for audio playback of Windows problems and check if it helps.

    Diagnose and solve the problems of Windows audio playback automatically

    If the problem persists, try the following method.

    Method 2:

    If you have installed Windows 7 drivers from the website and have not properly been able to play the audio, then I suggest you to install the Windows Vista drivers from Dell site in compatibility mode and check for the issue.

    1. Download the Windows Vista driver on the Dell website.
    2. Right-click on the downloaded driver file.
    3. ClickProperties , and then select the compatibility tab.
    4. Check enable the option run this program in compatibility mode for: , then select Windows Vista from the drop down.
    5. Click OK and install the driver.

  • DELL Studio XPS 1645 Windows XP Audio drivers

    Hello guys,.

    I desperately need drivers for my DELL Studio XPS 1645 Windows XP Pro SP3 compatibility

    I know that 32 bit OS does not work well with my processor and RAM, so do not mention please, I use this for the programming of the car.

    Tried ABSOLUTELY everything imaginable I stumbled upon Web sites after searching, but didn't help at all :(

    No sound from speakers, no sound in the headphones, nothing...

    Guys, H E L P :(

    Dell gets from the provider, IDT HD drivers. I don't know exactly how the procurement process, but I guess that when Dell order equipment for a specific system, drivers for operating systems that Dell intends to support are included in the order. If it's something like this then of course a manager can later allow the expense of having a driver written for an operating system that is not supported on a discontinued model.

    The operating system of this forum section has a driver request thread. Someone there might know of an alternative audio driver which might work on your system.

    One solution is to get an adapter usb audio.

    I don't know what "join" - it's something to do with virtual XP?

  • Noise of Dell Studio XPS 9100 CPU fan failure CPU fan

    My Dell Studio XPS 9100 did a loud intermittent noise for a few months and then last week I got a CPU fan fault message while booting. I blew all the dust from the fan and I always get the CPU fan failure message. I finally got the system starts by placing a small fan blowing air into the funnel will CPU/processor fan.

    Alas, my warranty expired 2 weeks ago. I'm kicking myself contacting technical support a few months ago, when the problem started.

    I need to replace the fan. What parts need me, and where can I get them?

    Thanks much for the reply.

    Thank you. After being tossed a little I transferred to the sales and ordered a new CPU fan for a cost total which includes shipping and taxes of $42.25. Too bad it wasn't 2 weeks ago, then she would have been free.

    The seller said that I would not need thermal paste. Is this correct?

    Best regards
