• Lights diagnostic OptiPlex 3010 Mini-Tower 3 & 4

  Hi all, I'm new to this forum. 2 years ago, I bought a dell optiplex 3010 mini tour, suddenly, it stopped working, I have no screen, no video or any kind of sound, the only thing it does is to turn on the lights of number 3 & 4 on the front panel. What can I do?

  Thank you

  3 & 4 usually diagnostic lights indicate a memory problem, see page 42 here:

  http://FTP.Dell.com/manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_optiplex_desktop/OptiPlex-3010_Owner%27s%20Manual2_en-us.PDF

  First of all, try the following:

  Remove and reinstall all memory modules and try to start the system, to see if that makes a difference.

  Still does not start, remove all the memory modules [page 14] and then install only one module in the connector 1 and see if the system starts, and if the computer starts normally, reinstall an additional module.
  Do not start, move the module in slot 2 and still a time see if the system boots.

  Still does not start, then remove the first module, and using the other, repeat the sequence described above.

  Still does not start, purchase a new compatible memory module and try that.

  Then, if the computer still does not start, it is possible that the motherboard has failed and must be replaced.

• OptiPlex GX240 [Mini-Tower] compatible graphics cards

  anything other than Rage 128 and radeon VE please... and I can't afford another computer right now... and anything more than 32 MB would be nice. Thank you for your time.

  GX240 is AGP and if it's a slim desktop computer which means low profile.  Its wayyyy too old and no cards are made more for her.  You may be able to find a Geforce 6200 AGP without fan.  The cost of the card and the power supply upgrade would you buy a GX620 or better machine.

• OptiPlex 790 Mini-Tower bi-ecrans?

  I have an Optiplex 790 minitower with Intel HD 2000 integrated and i5-2400 video.

  The case has a VGA and Display Port connector, I am currently using the VGA port. I am a student going for a Setup dual monitor and am confused if I can do without having to buy a discrete video card. I read conflicting reports that some say Yes and some do not. Can a kind soul please one way or the other?

  I do not use the PC for games, it's a casual work with video and web browsing. I need mainly two monitors for editing multiple files, scripting, programming, database etc..

  Many thanks, flipper.

  Hi end,

  Embedded video solution of OptiPlex 790 is VGA and DisplayPort compatible at the same time. You can connect two monitors to the computer without adding a discrete card.

  Please let me know if you need further information.

• Install a second hard drive on Optiplex 780 Mini-Tower

  I recently bought an Optiplex 780 minitower with Windows 7 DellRefurbished.com and I am happy with the machine. I would now like to add a second SATA hard drive that I bought, for which a power connector is available in the machine (the current hard drive is 250G and so is the other, I want to install.)

  However, the two ports of SATA cable on the motherboard are used, one for the existing drive and one for the CD - DVD drive. I understand that there may be a separator for a SATA data cable (as there were once two connections on some slick IDE cables).

  According to Belarc Advisor, the jury is Dell 0C27VV A03. Is it possible to install a second hard drive using a USB-to-SATA cable to the CD - DVD drive or the second hard drive? If so, set up a card with an internal USB connection USB PCI adapter? (I have more open slots). Or is there already a USB connection on the motherboard?

  Any advice, including suggestions on the parts that I need to get, are appreciated. I see that I can buy a USB-to-SATA cable that has two USB connectors and two sets of pins of connection to the hard drive. I assume that one of the USB connections is for power to the player. I wouldn't need, because the connection of the power supply is already here and elsewhere I wonder if I can get two the casing with a PCI card USB connections. Is there a USB-to-SATA cable with only the connection of data on the disk?

  The Manual explains the minitower 780 has 4 ports SATA motherboard and 2 interns, so you drive bays devriez have a place to plug in a second hard drive. (The desktop systems and small form factor 780 have 3 SATA ports). Unfortunately, the manual has a diagram of motherboard layout, so I don't know where the 2 other ports would be.

  The motherboard is compatible SATA1a and SATA2. A SATA3 drive must be retro-compatible with a SATA2 motherboard, but won't work on SATA2 data transfer speed. So the price of a SATA2 drive vs a SATA3 drive and the potential future use could be considerations.

  If you think that you will - eventually - upgrading to a new PC with a card mother SATA3, the new system would be able to handle the maximum speed of a SATA3 drive, but only works at speed SATA2 with a SATA2 drive.

  You will need to buy a data cable SATA for your new hard drive, but it's only a little extra money...

  If the manual is not correct (?) on the number of ports SATA on the motherboard, the system is supposed to have an on the rear panel eSATA port, so you can connect a player external eSATA HARD drive as an alternative.

• Request for block of power SUPPLY Dell optiplex 7040 Mini-Tower

  I intend to buy optiplex 7040 MT at end of game. So I would like to know:

  1. the motherboard has the processor power connectors and standard motherboard or owners?

  2. is it possible to replace the stock power supply with a cooler master extreme power 600W more? If not, what more than size of power supply fits there?

  3. is it possible to mount a gtx 1080 in there?

  Hi iamprateekprakash,

  We do not recommend that it works because it has not been tested but according to your discretion, you can try, but as you rightly noted that it might void the warranty with Dell.

• OptiPlex 755 Mini Tower does not, no outdoor lighting

  I can not get an OptiPlex 755 minitower to light. It ran quite constantly in a desktop environment on a battery backup/surge protector APC until it failed Monday morning. Then, there was little orange light flashing or continuous. When the computer was turned off, he would not come again. Sorry for the blur, but it's an opportunity information. I found a lot of dust inside, but I've seen much worse on computers

  When I push the power button, I get no change: no light in the power button, no diagnostic lights, no noise, no fan movement. When I connect it to power the led "to THE" on the motherboard is provided on a solid yellow/orange for the power supply is to put something.

  Is this likely to be a power supply problem? Is it possible to limit other than buying a replacement POWER supply?

  Thanks for any help,

  Joe M

  Sounds defective to me. Not sure about the thing of trombone. A NH493 replacement costs $ 29.95.

• 2nd disk on Dell OptiPlex 780 Mini-Tower

  I want to install a 2nd SATA Seagate 148 gb SATA HDD on my OptiPlex 780 minitower. The drive is physically mounted in the machine and the power cable that extends from the disk HARD existing fits perfectly in place. I had to go buy a 18 "SATA 7 pin data Cable available from the drive to the motherboard.

  Looks like there are two SATA containers-by-side in the middle section of the motherboard. A feed beige plastic and the other in black.

  Does make a difference that the one that I use?

  Is there another container, should I use instead of these?  Locate where?

  After hanging hardware, what I need to do to get the machine to recognize the new HARD drive when booting?

  Thank you

  The colors are to let you know which port is 0 then 1 then 2, then 3, etc. White port is #3 the orange cable goes from the optical drive sata 1 connector blue is the boot disk which is SATA 0. After connecting the power supply and data, you go into BIOS Setup and turn on SATA2.

• Need a video card compatible for Dell Optiplex 745 (SFF) - help, please!

  I have a Dell Optiplex 745 SFF. The details of the standard can be found here: http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_745techspecs.pdf

  I want to get the best possible video card for this PC that I can find, and I was hoping someone could help me with my options. I am aware of my options are limited, but I'd like to work with what I have here. Thanks much for any help.

  Sapphire 7750 is the best low profile card I know. There is no need of current auxiliary and is compatible with your power supply.

  SA makes a 7750 as well, but it requires more space and I don't know if it is compatible with your frame.
