  • Instructions for the installation of Windows 10 on Dell Optiplex 755 with running Windows 7

    I need instructions on how to install Windows 7 to 10 Windows on a Dell Optiplex 755.

    Task of pre-required

    When you make significant changes to your computer for example updated operating system, you must always back up. See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

    then

    then

    • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
    • Reboot several times, and then try again.
    • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
    • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
    • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
    • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
    • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
    • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
    • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).
  • Can I place a Dell OptiPlex 755 with Intel Core 2 Duo in Windows 8 Pro to Windows Pro 8.1?

    Can I place a Dell OptiPlex 755 with Intel Core 2 Duo in Windows 8 Pro to Windows Pro 8.1? I tried several times. I wonder if my computer does not meet the requirements for upgrade. How can I?

    Hello Andrew,.

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft community Forums.

    According to the description, you want to upgrade to windows 8 for windows 8.1 on your system.

    As you already use windows 8 on your system, you can try to upgrade to windows 8.1. However, there are some system requirements that are needed to run windows 8.1 correctly on your system. Please see the link below for the topic of system requirements.

    Reference:

    The system configuration required

    Outside the system requirements, you will also need the windows 8.1-compatible drivers. There is a possibility that some devices may not work if the compatible drivers for windows 8.1 are not installed on your system. Driver are manufactured by the manufacturer of the system. It seems that Dell has not made drivers for windows 8.1.

    Refer to the link checking the available drivers for your system.

  • OptiPlex 755: Components of unknown hardware in Windows 7

    Hello

    I ve installed Windows 7 Professional 32 bit in my Optiplex 755. Device Manager displays now two unknown components. I ve installed the actually INF-update of Intel for Windows 7, but still the same components unknown. All additional material has been recognized with success.

    Someone knows what I need drivers?

    Thank you very much.

    Kind regards
    schluri

    I'm not going to swear that it will work for you, but I got the same features appear in my test of Windows 7 install for our enterprise network, in English only. One thing I've done is to check the BIOS updated and as usual there was a new available, not that it is important for the problem that you have, but you can also do the update as go you if you do not, A15, incidentally, you can thus apply all the recommended updates Dell.

    The items listed as having no no drivers can be fixed with the AMT HECI and AMT-GROUND-LMS upgrades available from dell computer Optiplex 755 downloads. Extract the download to the default directory C:\Dell\Drivers and make a note on which one you do, personally I rename the folder of extraction so I know not what is in the directory if I need it later, for example C:\Dell\Drivers\AMT-HECI-R194010\ and C:\Dell\Drivers\AMT-SOL-LMS-R194011. They will not install automatically and if they act like they will just cancel out of it because they fail after installing anyway with a license purchase requirement most of the people do not have.

    Manually, you can point to them from Device Manager by clicking devices and by using the update driver option and navigate to the folder where you extracted the drivers. If you happen to choose the right folder, it tells you that the driver cannot be updated so just finishing that and go through the option to update again to take the next case, do the same procedure for updating the other driver and life should be good.

    I'm going from memory here so don't hold me to it, but I think that the PCI device is the AMT HECI and the standard equipment is the LMS-SOIL-AMT. If not then you have a chance of 50 / 50 to get it right by guessing and nothing to lose if you're wrong, as I said just take the other file, next time.

    That fixed it for me, hope it helps you as well.

  • Video card in Dell Optiplex 755 Desktop HELP

    Hello everyone, I'm new here and I really need your help :)

    I have a Dell Optiplex 755 desktop computer and incredible as it may seem that I did not know the Office had no graphic card (video card?) lol x)

    The Office gave at Christmas, I wonder if you could indicate a video card ideal for my desktop PC which is not too expensive.

    I use Windows 7 Pro, I don't know much about computers components, but I found this graphics card what you think? Will work or not? graphics-cards.specout.com/.../ASUS-GeForce-210-Silent

    I really need your help guys.

    This is bad advice because the card in question is not necessarily in all cases EXCEPT TOUR because of the unique slot configuration.  FAT OFF heat sinks will not physically go in the models of desktop SFF and USFF has no slot so no card is an option.

    Radiator to map out more 1 wide slot.

    This is why I always recommend specific ASUS Radeon HD5450 or 6450 cards.

  • OptiPlex 755 USFF does not start after changing the cmos battery

    I have a desktop Optiplex 755 USFF requiring the cmos battery to replace. After the replacement of the computer will not start. It brings up the menu windows start, the sasfe mode, safe mode with network set mode command prompt, security, last know good configuration and boot normally. Any option will bring to the top of the WIndows XP loading screen and then re-boot of the computer right back to the start screen. A big loop. I can get the hard drive to boot in an Optiplex GX280 without problem. I was told of the motherboard needs to be replaced, but I changed the units of the system and the same thing with this hard drive.

    I tried to reinstall the operating system and get all the way to "starting windows" and then the blue screen stop error message 0x0000007B (0xF7A10524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) dead. The computer is WIndows XP SP3, 1 GB of ram with 80 GB hard drive. It seems that the Setup program does not recognize the hard drive.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    After several hours of experimentation, I finally found the correct BIOS settings in order to get the computer to boot. There are three BIOS settings that need to be changed or check settings by default so that it can work. SATA 0 must be activated, SATA operations must be changed from AHCI, ATA and in the modular Bay, by default "far-sighted" should be replaced by the IDE. Save the settings and start the computer to the right upwards.

  • Video upgrade - business multi-screen on Optiplex 755 MT

    People,

    Please, let me share my upgrade of success a good end of the Dell Optiplex 755 MT for multi-monitor lease.

    If you are looking to use a great system for companies, but want to add multiple monitors (which is fantastic for productivity), so this solution might be nice for you.  And do graphics multi-monitor solution that works is easy and difficult at the same time!   It's easy if all the material is known to work together!  This note is therefore, on this topic.

    * With the help of ATI over-pants 2450 in 16th housing PCI Express.

    * Four monitors (via VGA or DVI adapters included) OVER the motherboard video still works!

    * Updated the BIOS to the most recent.

    * Note that this card works PCI 2.0, and it works in what is apparently a PCIe 1 location. on the MOBO 755 0 a.  A 2.1 card may not work.

    * This is for businesses and all five monitors work fine now, even with YouTube.  This is not intended as a game environment.

    * There are a few things to try in BIOS in terms of parameters - for a while, there was a mistake of memory and the thing wouldn't start - it took a little time to understand the exact configuration of he.

    * WIndows 7 is the operating system used - and Windows Aero works.

    * I'm not long seen accidents associated with old Jaton NVidia PCI cards that we used previously.

    * The physical slot size are fine.

    * Consumption looks very good.

    * Cost of ITX Canada was about $250 more shipping, tax etc.

    * Here's the Sapphire version of the AMD ATI card, which is very good.

    * The AMD reference number is 100-505531.

    Five monitors are not identical (three different geometries and two sellers)

    * Device Manager lists the latest AMD video drivers for this card as installed and work - I am not quite clear if the drivers have been installed from the download, or later.

    Actual installation was required for their persistence and a little hairy.  When I reboot, I'll see all noting the exact BIOS settings.

    * The system crashed not once now, in a week of constant availability, including browsers open 20 tablets or more periods and use of the physical memory of 80%.

    * System 6 GB of RAM, running 64-bit and BIOS A22.

    Good luck.

  • OptiPlex 755 w / HP 520 Deskjet Printer - cannot operate

    Hi, I have recently updated my Dell Optiplex 755 EnergySmart MT for Windows 7.0.  I have a HP Deskjet 520, c. 2000, I would like to be able to continue to use on the Optiplex 755 system - because he ran well on Windows XP and is still in good working condition - bought but I can't seem to find the necessary drivers.

    HP has stopped supporting this printer long ago.  I would be very interested in any suggestions that anyone might have to make it run on Windows 7.0.  When I plug the Deskjet 520 in the Optiplex 755, the printer turns on if the parallel port to connect without a doubt.

    Thank you.

    gef2014,

    When you have installed the operating system, have you installed the drivers in the correct order? How to download and install drivers in the correct order

    Windows 7 32-bit or 64-bit?

    What program anti-virus and firewall are you using?

    Is - this printer cable or wireless?

    This printer uses a usb port or a parallel port adapter?

  • Problem with the Dell Optiplex 755.

    Have a refurbished Dell Optiplex 755 with windows 7, only a few months ago.  Sometimes the screen rises all yellow and you can't get out.  Sometimes screen goes all black but if you click anywhere on the screen with the mouse will go up all that is behind the screen where you clicked, but you must do it all over the screen to see what is there.  Now the last week or so whenever you leave the computer and return windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown down.  Can someone tell me what could happen?

    This behavior indicates a video problem.

    A cable loose or damaged video from your computer to the screen.

    A failed video monitor.

    This computer has a separate video card?  If the cable connected to the back of the PC is vertical, the answer is probably no.  If it's a separate video card, you need to open the PC and remove, then reinsert the video card - its called re-seats of the Board of Directors.

    How old is follow you and what type is - LED or CRT.  Is - this really really heavy?

    Remove and check the end of the thread and examine the tiny pins in the connector, none of them are bent?

    The judgment is not likely related to changing the color on your screen.  A number of things that cause, but you need to check your hard drive and check the temperature inside the box.

    Turn off the power.  Hold the button for 7 seconds.  Open the case and see if there is a lot of dust.  Have one of those cans of compressed air.  Blow off the dust from the case.  Pay special attention to the fan on the processor with the fins of the radiator aluminum under him.  Make sure that it is free as well as fans of dust.

    You should test the hard drive to ensure that it is not a failure.  If you tell us the manufacturer of the drive, we can tell you where to find the appropriate software.  In the text box above the globe on the left lower part of peripheral type.  Type of device.  Click on Device Manager.  In the window that appears, click the small arrow to the left of the disc.  Send us the model number, you can see it.

  • Double video for a DT optiplex 755 (office)

    All - I have a dell optiplex 755 desktop model and want to switch to two monitors.  Im not playing or do the cutting-edge graphics, I want just the flexibility to both monitors.  I do a lot of design document in development work and would like to be able to have the two windows runs in both full screen mode.  Looks like there are a lot of monitors on slickdeals now a days.  I would like help in selecting a suitable video card to get there. any suggestions?

    No, it was the other HDMI and DVI.

    A DVI-HDMI or HDMI-DVI cable will work. In my case, two monitors were DVI, so I used a HDMI-DVI cable. There are more complex and expensive cards with two DVI ports, but it is cheaper to use a cable such as I have described.

  • New Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS with OptiPlex 755

    Hello

    I have a form factor computer to desktop OptiPlex 755 with 3.0 ghz dual core processor, 1 gig ram and 280w of power. I recently bought a new video card because the integrated Intel video card could not support a new game I bought. The card is a PNY Verto with a Nvidia GeForce 8400 GS chipset. I installed it in the PCI express card

    slot and turned on the computer while the monitor is connected to the new card and I had no video. I had to return the vedo on the on board to get to the CMOS memory (I think that's what it's called). I chose the onboard/card instead of the automatic selection option in the video section of the configuration of the system, but the system still does not recognize the new card. He used to see the same place on windows. I know that this new card says it requires a 300w power supply, but I heard that dell underestimates their power and is really much more that they are listed. Why my computer does not recognize the card?
