• Cannot complete installation of Windows 7 OEM on Precision T3400

  Can someone help me?

  I try to do a clean install on a Dell Precision T3400 with Windows 7 64 Bit OEM, but cannot complete the sequence.

  It goes through the sequence of the whole installation, restart a couple of times. He gets in the beginning of the sequence as "complete installation" - contribute to what, according to me, it's the final reboot - and then crashes. I think that what should come next is the bit where to enter information first name of computer use - time, date, place - time etc. I never get that much, however.

  I have not updated the BIOS. Previously Windows Vista - but the disk has been deleted - not sure if I can update the BIOS in this State.

  Another thing - I swapped the graphics card. The monitor of works well during the initial installation sequence.

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks a lot for reading.

  The suggestion above about SATA drives didn't really solve my problem, but it got me thinking in the right direction.

  Here's what I've learned about this through the answer and the answers on other forums above. It turns out be a common problem:

  It is usually caused by the lack of drivers for devices that are connected to the computer. Devices can include: any type of USB device (may be same mouse or keyboard), any type of hard disk, graphics cards and other types of cards such as PCI or PCIe Firewire. If you have a SCSI card then remove it permanently.

  I had a Dell keyboard with built in USB ports and a Media Player control. I swapped it for a simple vanilla ordinary keyboard.

  I also already swapped the graphics card that came installed on the T3400 for an older NVidia Quadro card as a fix for compatibility with my older monitors SVGA adapter.  When I searched on the NVIDIA site, I discovered that there is no Windows 7 driver for my graphics card, so I bought a DVI - I adapter that I needed the original card and replace.

  My problem turned out to be the graphics card.

  On other forums I have seen people solve the problem by removing the USB devices all THE. If you have a keyboard and a USB mouse, this may seem to be a problem. However, once you have initialized the windows 7 install process you can remove the keyboard and the mouse. Whenever the computer reboots it page and warn that any input device is fixed, but after a short pause, he must continue with the installation procedure. In my case, the fancy USB keyboard was certainly a problem too. Disconnected after initialization of the installation allowed the installation of two additional steps.

  I curse me Microsoft about this problem, but to be honest, I was not able to run a compatibility test of windows 7 on my computer. I bought it on ebay without an operating system. If I could perhaps it would have marked the graphics card problem and composite USB keyboard device.

  Don't know if it will work, but if you can't figure out what your driver problem, you can be able to run a hardware compatibility test and periperhals by a temporary installation of Ubuntu and connect it to the Net. I had no problem to boot Ubuntu from a USB key and the connection to the network.  It works perfectly first time without any of the usual shenanigans of Microsoft. In my opinion, Ubuntu is an operating system much higher with a much nicer user experience. My only reason to stick with Microsoft's older software. It's highly unlikely that I will ever consider buying a new system from Microsoft again. They lose the pedals after XP.

  Good luck

• Aurora R3 system BIOS A11

  Hello

  I have an Aurora R3 and installed Windows 10 - which went quite easily (with many thanks to all users and their useful son on how to do this).

  Since the installation of Windows is not new - upgrade - I decided to just check the Dell website for available drivers and downloads. When I entered my service number, in the downloads, I see the following:

  Alienware Aurora system BIOS, A11

   See the details

  File name: Aurora - A11.exe

  Important: recommended

  Description: Windows/DOS (1.94 MB)

  Release date: June 17, 2013

  Version: A11, A11

  Last updated: June 17, 2013

  --------------------------

  Now, I don't have any problems at the moment and certainly not looking for anything :)
  But I was wondering, since I have seen many complain Dell do not update the BIOS to the R3, does anyone else know this download? Has anyone tried to install this BIOS?

  It is said...

  Compatible systems:
  Alienware Aurora
  Alienware Aurora ALX

  ... that is the Aurora-R1, R3 not.

• Game BIOS A11 and Links 2003

  I hesitate to upgrade my R4 Aurora to A11 (currently 07) because of golf links workaround works so well... I know that Tesla has helped get my golf 'on' with the USB input device solution and was wondering if this one. OLD game will be able to use this solution with the new Bios A11...

  (I'm Hopin 'Tesla still has a lil' golf fever and sees this)

  Well, I have Aurora R1, so I have no way to test it.

  While I discuss how developers when, apparently, it is not repairable. Although he seems to have the source code for Links2003, I don't think he takes source in the core Game Engine (where the incompatibility is). On the side of Dell, never heard back from them on an appropriate fix.

  Regarding the R4 BIOS flashing, I wouldn't unless you fix something (because of general risk of bricking death updated MB).

• Tecra A11 - problems of the more recent/video BIOS

  Hi all

  I just got a Toshiba Tecra A11 the other day which is out of warranty (Refurb). When I got the laptop there is a problem where the photo was displayed at 1024 x 768 and biased (in BIOS). Image 1-2cm off the screen to the left, with over the space of 5-6 cm black to the right of the picture, the low 2-3 cm of the image were also the bottom of the screen.

  I installed Ubuntu Studio initially and attempted to force the display to a wide screen resolution. I didn't have a chance, I also installed Win7, but still with the latest drivers, I had no chance.

  It was strange because the BIOS was displayed in the same way, so, naturally, I decided to upgrade to the latest version of the BIOS. The BIOS of the laptop is quite old (end of 2009).
  I downloaded the update to the BIOS of Toshiba web site and ran the update.

  The new BIOS has been installed and rebooted the machine.
  However there was no image displayed on the LCD screen, windows startup has done successfully, if I connect to an external monitor to the laptop I brush. When starting the laptop backlight LCD lights.

  My question is: what can I do to fix this? Is a tool of recovery or down to BIOS available? Is it possible to reflash the bios? What is recommended?

  Thank you.

  This means that everything is ok with the external monitor?
  You can access the BIOS by pressing F2 and you can set it to the default settings?

  Usually, you can switch between the external and internal view using the FN + F5 key combination. It work?

• Power Precision T3400 problems

  We suffered a power problem for a few weeks and my system went to the South, even if I got it on a very reliable surge protector.

  Then he turns not so I bought a charger 9V power, installed and still no power.

  I see the orange light on the MB, but when I press the power button, nothing. If I hold down the reset button on the power supply, I can get the power turns on but he was immediately turned off...

  Any ideas on what could be the problem?

  Hello

  As the power supply is already replace but question remains the same, suspecting the motherboard to be defective.

  But, have you tried to remove the memories and HD and turn on the machine.

• The upgrade of my Precision T3400

  I put my T3400 to level, and I want to know how long I can take it.

  1. According to Dell, the maximum size of any player is 1 TB or 1.5 TB, according to which tech I ask.  But when I tried a 2 TB drive, the system seemed to have no problem - what is the size of maximum disk I can use?
  2. Dell said that the more RAM that I can use is 16 GB - someone ' one already tried most?
  3. I've been adding readers and cards, i/o and RAM - how do I know when (if ever) I reached the limits of my power 375 watts? (Dell offered also a 525 watts, so I guess that some call configurations for this.)

  I've already changed in XP x 32 for Win 7 Pro x 64.

  Max ram is 16 gigs but its more expensive to buy RAM that it is to get a new DDR3 as a T3500 system, which would also have the 525W power supply.  Same 8 GB of DDR2 memory is over priced now that they are scalping.

  2 TB is max without a host Bus Adapter.

  BIOS A09 is fine, but later versions have problems with PSA Diagnostics. BIOS earlier than A08 won't support 16 concerts.

• Precision T3400 follies

  I was the proud owner of a T3400 precision until last week.  The power supply died and I decided to replace the old with a nearly identical refurb.  The configurations are very similar, I thought I could hover over the data with little effort and continue to use the T3400 as my machine backup air gap.

  I have a strange problem that I can't seem to nail.  The original T3400 was related to my U3011 monitor for about 2 years with no problems.  When I received the replacement machine today, I can't do the replacement T3400 work with this monitor.  When I connect the video output, as soon as I put in the power cable, the status light power turns yellow, fans go to full speed and the computer will not start.  Connected to a cheap 19 "monitor phillips, the power indicator turns green and the computer will start and display the video.  I duplicated it with two different graphics cards, the original NVS290 and a PNY FX380LP.  The two cards will have a video output DVI on the Phillips, but the two cards show same yellow power state light behavior when it is connected to the U3011 monitor. from DVI, enter the U3011 works very well with my T3600 and two DVI displays correctly.  However, try this new T3400 with DVI input or video card gives the same result except once I had to remove the fleas memory due to a fault of beep which eliminated after that I reinstalled the chips and to monitor Phillips.

  What baffles me, is the length of time, I used the original T3400 with still video equipment and have had no problems and now this situation seems to be the new normal.

  Anyone has an idea here, I'm stumped.

  Thanks for the 2 replies, but I solved the problem.

  Question # 1 was the Orange light of death on my original T3400.  I replaced the original power supply with an OEM of Corsair, which was recommended elsewhere on the card and the computer started with the original re-installed equipment.

  When I connect the computer to the U3011 monitor, light is orange again.  I removed the power cord quickly and replaced the DVI - D cable with a DVI-S spare part and the computer started normally.

  My opinion is that there is a short circuit in the DVI - D cable, released original 375W PSU. According to a chart of food food recommendation I should run a minimum 450W while he was probably in his last breath.

  The other issue was the refurb T3400 replacement that I bought and then delivered to a member of the family.  The BIOS in the refurb was A08 and once I had updated this BIOS to A13 was able to use the U3011.  The A08 BIOS only seemed to work with a 19 inch LCD.

  After all that fuss I'm just glad that my T3400, it's back to normal operation.  I have always been pleased with the performance of the device and it was solid for almost 5 years now running 24/7.

• nVidia Geforce GT 650 M NOT DETECTED on Inspiron 17R SE 7720 after update BIOS A11

  Hello world

  A week ago I did some updates on my Inspiron 17R SE 7720 including Bios Update to the version of the A11. Unfortunately, after this update I realized that the nVidia Geforce GT 650 M graphics card had disappeared from my system.

  I read other posts and people who have experienced this problem suggested the re-installation of the bios would solve the problem, but in my case, it didn't.

  Also, I installed the new version BIOS A12 and A13 versions but non of these have solved this problem.

  Also reinstalled windows do not either fix as suggested by others in other posts.

  I also ran the diagnostics on the computer from the bios and card does not appear there either, like the nVidia Geforce GT 650 M graphics card has not been installed on the system.

  Finally I run a version of Ubuntu on my Inspiron 17R SE 7720 and run a system check and or the card is detected, just the Intel HD Graphics 4000 is detected under windows or linux.

  Please someone Dell help us solve this problem, because it certainly is a BIOS PROBLEM.

  If you're among the unlucky ones like me this saw has disappeared from the map of nVidia Geforce GT 650 M graphics card in your system, please share your experience with me.

  Thanks for your replies.

• Napa-GL8E Motherboard BIOS update problems

  Hi, I have a Pavilion Elite m927a and Sunday, this update of the Napa-GL8E motherboard BIOS wanted to install. I did, and then all the computer froze. I was like, oops. so I forced it closed (power button which took place) and rebooted, and the same update arrived. I though maybe if I get rid of the process would lead, it does not freeze? so I forced it shut again, and the entire computer is dead. Would not boot the computer and emitted a beep code in groups of two, given that the BIOS was not happy (couldn't get the MESSAGE). So, I would have reset the BIOS myself, ' cept that I just bought a month ago, and I didn't kill my warranty, so I called HP and got a technician of po as a side note, it took over an hour for a person pick up, and I've been waiting very unfortunately. Anyway, the Grinch came to a fixed rate (I don't know what he did I wasn't there), but it doesn't have me talk about the update, and now, she wants to always be updated the update even that caused all the trouble.

  My question is this; What should I do about it? I'm too scared to run it again in fear of having to w8 for a technician again.

  Ty! ^^

  Do not install it.

  Word to the wise, do not install an update of the BIOS, unless you have a problem or you need something like a new game or software.

  This hp article should help you remove the element of updates (especially the last two sections):

  Hello

  Do you have what Windows OS installed?
  If you have installed Win XP then the common Module must be installed before trying to update the BIOS.
  If Vista is installed, the VAP (value added package) must be running.
