• Windows XP 64 bit will run on a Dell Optiplex 780 SFF or Optiplex 980 SFF?

  I intend to buy a Dell Optiplex 780 SFF or a Dell Optiplex 980 SFF, but I would like to know which one will work with Windows XP 64-bit.

  For Windows XP 64 Bit its better to use the somewhat hidden (old ftp site):

  http://FTP.Dell.com/Browse_For_Drivers/desktops/OptiPlex/OptiPlex%20780/

  http://FTP.Dell.com/Browse_For_Drivers/desktops/OptiPlex/OptiPlex%20790/

  http://FTP.Dell.com/Browse_For_Drivers/desktops/OptiPlex/OptiPlex%20980/

  This has the old drivers listed in multiple versions, including XP x 64 drivers not mentioned on drivers and downloads. The new ftp site is currently slightly broken.

• OptiPlex GX620 under Windows 7-64 bit

  We discuss to modernize our systems with Windows 7-64 bit. Some of them are OptiPlex GX620 with Pentium D processor. One of my colleageus began installing Windows 7-64 bit for some of them. So far, she said, she did not no problem. This system does support 64 bit OS?

  Thank you

  Litom

  Officially no, Dell has not listed this system for Windows Vista or Windows 7 compatibility, and as such, no driver is officially available directly on the drivers and downloads. He argues that official 32-bit and 64-bit of Windows XP. In other words, that it should be 64-bit compatible. I run Windows 7 upgrade advisor to make sure that he is capable of 64-bit.

  Unofficially, he will certainly work with the 32-bit and is highly likely to work with the 64 bit. Many of the system drivers are native to Windows 7 and/or may be levied on other Optiplex models. I installed the 32 bit version on a GX520 for example which is very similar. In your case I would like to install Windows 7 my instructions below without having to activate, this will give you a 30 day trial to see how it works before you lose all licenses. You know how it runs in a couple of hours however.

  An important note on the material, you have 4 GB of RAM in each system? If I do not recommend that upgrade you using crucial memory or install the 32-bit version of Windows 7, the upgrade of the RAM to 4 GB is recommended. See here for crucial memory, it says maximum 4 GB but says also 4 slots that can accommodate 2 GB each. Run the Crucial scan on one of your machines. If you buy RAM for several of these systems, it may be interesting stick 4 x 2 GB in one to see how much RAM it can attack with a 64 bit OS (you can remove the 4 GB of RAM after the test to put in another unit). See the service manual NOTE from the ADMIN: broken link has been removed from this post by Dell > for instructions in installation RAM, make sure that it is installed in pairs. I would say that it is not worth the price to get the 8 GB of RAM in each of your machines, but it would just be interesting to know as a note aside.

• Second graphics card for Dell Optiplex 980

  Hello

  My Optiplex 980 has an ATI Radeon HD 3450 with two connected monitors. In order to launch a third screen, I bought a compatible Windows 7 video card and installed in the PCI (regular PCI, PCI Express) housing.  Sort of, this has worked for a bit, but changing resolutions display or other activities led to empty screens. I removed it.

  By this thread: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/desktop/f/3515/p/19400654/19935197.aspx#19935197

  It seems that my machine simply does not support a third-party monitor. Is this correct? I have seen elsewhere that Optiplex owners have managed to install a 2nd video card.

  I want to run three monitors at once, stretching from my screen (no mirroring). The Matrox TripleHead2Go is $ 300, too expensive, and I need to run the different resolutions on each screen.

  I would try USB video but worry that it will put a brake on my CPU.

  I appreciate the advice.

  THX,

  Ben

  AMD made called "eyefinity" video cards series 3 running watching the... a few catches: you must be able to insert the card in your case and your diet must be able to handle it... you didn't say what 980 you... He came in different sizes.  an another important problem, is one of the 3 monitors must be able to connect to a display on the eyefinity card port.

  example of a full eyefinity card size you could run if you have the version of the Tower of the 980 optplex: www.newegg.com/.../Product.aspx

  example of a profile low eyefinity card you can use if you have the profile low optiplex 980: www.newegg.com/.../Product.aspx

• OptiPlex 980 win 7 64 printer to network

  Years, I used a home network printer, attached to a robotic router we (entry USB), of any of my computers from home (XP, Win7 32, Win7 64). Never a problem.

  For two days, all of a sudden, my Dell Optiplex 980 desktop computer, running Windows 7 64 b, is unable to use the printer.

  I made each known attempt to solve and read all that I found Googling autour. Reinstall the printer, cancellation of any firewall and AntiVirus. I even changed the local USB printer, with a direct connection, and I printed without problems. Verified data from tcp port and the address of the router.

  Of course, other computers continue to regularly print to the printer when it is connected to the router. All IP network are fixed and the network works without problem with a lot of other elements (cams, iphone, AppleTV, ipod etc., AccessPoint - for the WiFi network part - and Extender)

  I made many other tests that I go here for the list, always without result. Officially the printer seems to be ok, but I am unable to get even a test page for this computer.

  For your information I did not any voluntary action or modification I could lay claim to the cause of this failure.

  I need to solve this problem, so pls no matter what kind of idea is very well accepted... same crazy!

  Thank you very much

  Manlio

  As we were not able to understand why, Windows 7, became suddenly unable to set the print server US Robotics on the Intranet, I bought an external print server, having an IP address directly and solved the problem. Maybe someday I can find out why...

• Windows 95 compatibility

  Windows 7 has a Windows 95 compatibility mode for older games?

  Lance68,

  Yes, it's done, but it is not 100% guaranteed to work correctly. This works for some programs, but not for all.

  Right-click of your program, properties tab check "Run in compatibility mode" and W95 is top of the list. There are also some specific options like use res 640 x 480 or 256 colors etc.

  But nothing is certain in what concerns if the program is running or not.

• Win7 PRO update - to get the Windows XP Compatibility Mode = No. WORKY!

  I bought a fairly expensive system, it comes w / no NEED Win7 HOME edition-paid the cost of upgrade ridiculous just so that I could have programs Windows XP compatibility because NONE of the programs my WinXP Pro embarks on this edition of Crapola from windoze to find that you have to DOWNLOAD.

  Pleasant for people who must pay for their bandwidth because they have satellite systems because * NEWSFLASH to MICROSOFT * broadband high speed is not available nationwide!

  Thus, after 6 DOWNLOADS of the Retarded _ "prove it is a true copy of Windoze ' message - he FINALLY admits that ' Yes, I really waste my money on this _ rather than buy a REAL operating system! and sends me to the download link (FINALLY).

  So, I try to download this _ any way & it starts to download, 4 HOURS later I get:

  C:\Downloads\WindowsXPMode_en-US.exe could not be saved because the source file could not be read.

  Try again later or contact the server administrator.

  different 3 times, I received this after 17 HOURS TOTAL of download.

  So I send a message to 'Technical Support' where I said that I have to wait 24 hours for a bloody response. NICE. REALLY GOOD.

  Why the _ is not only included on the stupid Win 7 DISC? As you know GD although normal programs will not work win 7! ???

  Someone at - it a number of telephone CONTACT for WINDOZE? I am so sick of dressing - I have a business to run and it gets OLD very fast.

  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

• OptiPlex 980, any diagnosis 4 lit and not start

  Hi all

  recently my Optiplex 980 refuses to start: when I press the power switch, starts a sequence of codes that always ends with the diagnosis of four all lit. The power switch is blue, and for a second flashing led hard drive. But nothing appens...

  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Tiziano

  Which doesn't seem to be a documented diagnostic led code...

  Have you tried to disconnect all devices except keyboard, monitor and mouse?

  Have you installed a new hardware or software recently?

  You can try to clear the BIOS:

  1. Power off, unplug
  2. Power button press / hold for about 15 seconds
  3. Open the case and remove the motherboard battery
  4. Power button press / hold for about 30 seconds
  5. Use canned air to remove dust bunnies
  6. Reinstall the PCI cards and RAM in their slots
  7. Replace the battery (use 3 volt CR2032, if this one is old, ~ $2)
  8. Case and see if it boots now with only mouse, screen and keyboard

• OptiPlex 980 - name of the previous owner on the start screen

  Got an Optiplex 980 MFS opportunity, and the name of the previous owner appears on the Dell logo splash screen when I start by putting on, up to above the Dell logo. Is it possible to change this? Thank you!

  F2 in the bios and change the field to TAG ASSETS.  Otherwise, you will need to use the DCCU utility to change this.

  http://en.community.Dell.com/TechCenter/OS-applications/w/wiki/2545

  You can ONLY change the asset though NOT label service tag if it has a value.

  Service tag	Displays the serial number of your computer.
  Inventory number	Allows you to create a system identification label if an inventory number is not yet defined. This option is not set by default.
  SERR Messages	Control of the mechanism. This option is enabled by default. Some graphics cards require the EC mechanism is disabled.

• Microsoft had a band, probably not my music a little... In any case, it is the second shortcut of Microsoft which is supposed to take me to the "Windows 7 Compatibility Center.

  I won't be here but Microsoft seems very happy sending me on the prosecution of the wild goose, and here I landed! I didn't even know that Microsoft had a band, probably not my music a little... In any case, it is the second shortcut of Microsoft which is supposed to take me to the "Windows 7 Compatibility Center. The first, in the Windows help sent me to http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/support#1TC=windows-7. Not a mention of the word "compatibility" on the page anywhere. Then, enter 'compatibility' in the search for support and here is the result, looks promising. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/search/result.aspx?q=compatibility. But no, I click on the first result that says Microsoft compatibility Center. Even what seems to be the correct web address, microsoft.com /compatibility and it takes me here http://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-band/en-us/support/hardware/microsoft-band-system-requirements. I give up!

  Hi André,.

  Please keep us updated.

  Unfortunately, the center of compatibility Windows has actually retired. To find out if any program that works with Windows 10 or not, you can check with the developer to program on the compatibility of its operating system. In addition, when you migrate to Windows 10 from a previous version of Windows, you are informed about programs that may not work with Windows 10. However, you can try to install these programs in compatibility mode and check.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.
