• Dell XPS One 2710 Fresh install

  I want to do a new install of the operating system with a new SSD, I intend to buy my 3 years old Dell XPS One 2710. It is my understanding that the Windows operating system authorization key is integrated into the motherboard. I think it is in the BIOS from what I've read.

  My question is if I install a new hard drive and do a clean from scratch the Windows OS authorization key install will still be valid and knit?  Moreover, would this work if I tried to do a clean install of Windows 10? Thank you!

  Throw the DVD in the trash if its for Windows 8.0 which is end of life. A DVD can be refused by SecureBoot. Also the Windows 8.0 installation and then allowing Windows Update for Windows 8.1 will lead to catastrophic performance.

  Its really simple to do theres just a bunch of information about the editions at the beginning... which often get confused. It seems that you are sure that your edition 8.1 Windows (Home) is however. Take a look at the associated tutorial video too:

  https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=Is6I9B9kjFM&list=PL1RkaknDn7v9wEeh0YXFqOFsrmws-9fYn&index=1

  This video tutorial is more direct because it focused only on Windows 8.x OEM with a UEFI BIOS licenses that apply to your system. It omits all details on retail licenses and hardware legacy. Note the .isos used in the tutorial video are Windows 8.1 with Update 2 and not Windows 8.1 with update 1 as shown.

• Windows 7 x 64 installation DVD does not start on a Dell XPS One 2710

  I apologize in advance for the long post...

  Just got a Dell XPS One 2710.  Lot has happened, but let me clarify the current number as briefly as possible: the machine does not start from the HARD internal disk or the Windows 7 Installer x 64 DVD.  He gets through loading files and then gray progress bar when its colorful animation it blue screens with error CACHE_MANAGER.

  I ran the diagnostic, including tests extended memory tests, and they have not found any error in what either.

  When I was troubleshooting this problem previously, in some sort the motherboard got bricks (I don't know what exactly I did to cause that), but Dell has since replaced.  The first motherboard had BIOS version A09.  It has installed A11.

  I can't find any BIOS settings combination that will allow even the Installer Windows DVD to start with the Blue error screen CACHE_MANAGER.  I tried the UEFI boot modes and legacy, I tried RAID and AHCI.  I tried with and without loading legacy OPROMs.

  What I ultimately do is set the start mode of RAID so that I can use the SSD mSATA as a cache ("Accelerate" in the Intel RST Panel).  But I can not even the installer to start on where I can load drivers RST (assuming it's even necessary).

  Other posts have suggested problems with memory, but I took each of the two DIMMS one at a time and I always had the same problem.

  Should I suspect the hard drive?  When we arrived at the machine, he seemed to be running Windows 8 very well - until we went on the way to the side dark and downgraded to Windows 7.  Then once we started to have errors on updates, things has quickly degenerated from there.  In addition, again, diagnoses don't find any problems.

  Any suggestions on how to get at least this puppy to start?   .. .or what have we done wrong?

  Thanks EJN.  It turns out that there is certainly a hardware problem on this machine.  It was a refurbished Dell making machine and apparently when they renovated the it, they missed the real problem.

  The way I know that it is material, it's that we bought actually 2 of them at the same time.  When I started to suspect the material, I decided to try this process on the other.  He worked like a knife through hot butter.  But I will say that the combination of the BIOS set to boot legacy mode and still start the installation with the option to UEFI DVD in the start menu was not easy to understand at first.  But when I followed the correct steps, everything worked very well.

  For those of you who might try this, here are a few things I learned along the way:

  1. According to EJN, take the time to get/burn a CD to install Windows 7 x 64 that already has SP1 on it.  If you go to preserve the UEFI partitions and the boot hard disk, you must have x 64.  x 86 (32-bit) does not support UEFI.

  2 unzip the RAID drivers to the * root * your USB flash or floppy drive and have it in the machine when you start the installation DVD.  I could be wrong, but it seemed to me that the installer looked for them without having to explicitly say it loads the me.

  3. as said EJN, set your BIOS boot legacy mode but use F12 at startup to bring up the Windows Boot Manager and start the installation in UEFI boot mode DVD.  If you want to implement an SSD as cache for your hard disk, you will need to set the SATA controller in RAID mode.

  4. I had partitions UEFI and was able to leave them intact.  Here's a very brief explanation: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744301%28v=ws.10%29.aspx your results may vary.

  5 take this one as a possible suggestion that is worth what you pay for it: when I got the USB with RAID drivers at the root before starting the installation DVD, I didn't need to load the drivers explicitly.  As I said, it seems that the installation program has been smart enough to find and load what it takes, but honestly, I don't know.  When I load them explicitly, I got errors saying that the installer could not install on the partition, I had chosen.  Makes me think that I could have loaded both times.  What worked for me was NOT explicitly their cargo.

  6. you MUST be at your PC when Setup has completed copy and unpack the installation files.  Don't forget that you have your BIOS set to start legacy mode.  So when he tries to restart to complete the installation, it will try to start using the table inherited from on your hard disk - who is not here because you did a UEFI installation with partitions for UEFI.  So when Setup restarts the first time, you might as well get into the BIOS here and choose the UEFI boot mode.  If you do not, you will need to grab it whenever it restarts using F12 and manually tell it to boot from your hard drive using the UEFI.

  These steps, you should get installed and running.  But another thing I had to understand that when first, I installed and executed the dashboad Intel RST, there is no acceleration option even if my mSATA SSD was found healthy.  I found that if it is formatted and partitioned, you actually go into Disk Manager and delete the partition before the RST dashboard he sees as available for use as a cache.

  I hope this helps others out of me.  It's a heck of a lot easier when the hardware is not bad!

• Device driver base for Dell XPS One A2010 system

  I have a Dell XPS One A2010 - I reformatted the old Windows Vista operating system and installed a new Windows 7 operating system.  Everything seems to work fine, but in the Device Manager, in "other devices", 2 "base system device" I do not have the current drivers and I can't find it on the Dell website or any other place.  Can you help me?

  Yes, I went on the Dell site, but they were not useful.  After some extensive research, I found that the basic system 2 devices focused on the rich built in card reader and was able to solve the problem.

• Dell XPS One 2710 does not start - should I all reasonable options?

  A few weeks ago, my 18 - month, Dell XPS One 2710 has started to act up.  Still not start correctly.

  Ran the Dell diagnostics on their Web site.  Everything was fine - no detected hardware problem.

  Yesterday, the computer completely stopped working.  It would be start, after a sweep of drive long, finally on the desktop, but can hang after 10 minutes.  I'm on Windows 8 (not 8.1).

  Today, I thought I would do a system restore to a point a month ago.   But today I can not get a startup complete, impossible to get on the desktop.  Therefore, can't do a system restore.  Instead, I see this screen.

  I have the options to continue?   I don't have a recovery disk.

  

  You can install 8.1 on top of what you have by a 16 GB or more usb flash drive as a bootable recovery media.

  If it does not recognize the key to your Bios, you can use a generic key for install but not activate.

  All the pre installed 8.x are 64-bit so make sure you download the correct version.

• DELL XPS ONE 27 - no HDMI is not detected with a xbox 360. Help!

  Hi,
  

  I have a problem:
  

  I have my Xbox360 connected to a desktop computer all in one Dell XPS One 27 "with an HDMI cable and when i change the input from Computer to HDMI the monitor does not recognize the Xbox360 and get a screen black and a sign saying "No video on HDMI input detected".
  

  The issue is that my monitor has a resolution of 2560x1440 and I think the maximum resolution that gives Xbox360 is Full HD (1980x1020). But I read that the Xbox360 still have to re-scale the image until it is appropriate (ergo, leave black edges to complete the remaining pixels or, failing enlarge reducing the quality of it), right?.
  

  Anyway, I have also tried to change the resolution of my computer and neither detects Full HD HDMI (and I'm not sure that the Computer resolution remains once I make the switch to HDMI, but in principle, yes).
  

  That's it. I have asked in shops and specialists and everyone tells me that it is possible, but I do not see where it may be bad or failure.....
  

  Thanks in advance. :)
  

  PS: The cable I use is standard HDMI cable and the Xbox is FAT Xbox360.
  

  Hello.

  To resolve this problem, you will need to check that the HDMI cable is ENTIRELY in the HDMI PLUG! Believe it or not! The HDMI on the back of the OIA 2710 is a tight fit, and I thought I was going to break the taking, but he won entirely, and the xbox was on the screen.

  THE SOCKET IS A TIGHT FIT!

  MAKE SURE THAT YOUR HDMI SOCKET IS * ENTIRELY * IN.

  SHOULD THERE HAVE NO HDMI METAL SHOWING!

• Dell XPS One 2710, dead

  Hello

  My new computer worked fine last night and this morning would not start.  Technical support sends a flashdrive to re - install the operating system that will wipe the data.  In theory I'm fully backed up with a service online, but in practice, restore the files to a backup computer turns out to be difficult.

  (1) it would not be possible for me to remove the dead XPS hard drive, put it in a box external (I have a practice) and then access my backup computer files?  That would make me return in the faster action.

  (2) just in case where someone can help with the XPS error, the symptoms are the following: when I start it, I get a message 'auto repair preparation', and then later a blue screen saying "your PC came across a problem and must restart...". ». Exactly what is on this screen is a little hard to say because it is only visible for half a second or more, but I'm sure I've seen a reference to SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION any.  In any case, blue screen, it goes back to "Automatic repair of preparation" and then repeats.  I have a restoration/rescue USB drive that I made when I got the PC.  When I boot on the USB, it seems good to begin with (message "Loading" files..) but then I get the same error as message when booting from the hard drive.   The diagnostics run without error.

  Help?

  Thank you

  Richard U.

  Hello

  So last night I tried to re - install the USB DELL prepared key and it did not work.  I called technical support, but this time the person didn't know what was wrong, or at least what measures were needed to fix it.

  The solution was to fiddle around with the BIOS settings to an option press Ctl - I introduced early start to display the configuration of the Intel Rapid Storage Technology technology. From there, turn off the power for help using the SSD as a cache device; then reboot (this worked, but soon); Then go to the Control Panel, the Intel Rapid Storage Technology technology; clear the contents of the SSD; reactivate the acceleration; reset; Update video drivers; reset; system fixed.   I just watched as the technician of most of the steps after starting using the remote control of the computer, so may have left the steps.

  He said the following, even if I assume that these are intuitions rather than certainty:

  (1) the problem was triggered by installing a Windows Update (maybe even just an update Windows Defender) and continue working without having to restart.   Of course, this may leave the seriously damaged SSD cache.  To avoid this problem, restart after each update even if the Windows Update system does not insist on it.

  (2) the fix described above is likely to result in the loss of all data on the disk.  By thus to the stadium where he works but slow (if it gets that far), all important data should be saved.  In my case, nothing has been lost, with the exception of a week's time.

  I would like that this has been fixed on the first call of support it would have saved me a lot of grief.  However, it may be that Dell only very recently found what was going on.

  Kind regards

• How to install in my Dell XPS 720 H2C cooling system?

  I have a Dell XPS 720 and I want to put inside H2C cooling system, but I can't find where the power cable from the cooling system is going.

  When everything has failed, read the Manual.

  #26 on the motherboard, page 89.

• Struggling micro does not work. Installed Chipset for Dell Xps 420. Has been upgraded from vista to 7 64-bit

  Whenever I plug a microphone, the microphone taken none appears on the recording tab devices in the sound settings.

  The audio jack works well and worked even without the chipset drivers.

  I tried to download realtek but I get an error that says no drivers supported.

  Hello

  I couldn't find an update for Windows 7 for your computer, which means that Dell has not all drivers for this OS on your computer XPS 420. However, there is a driver that is specific to Vista 64-bit, download here: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/xps-420?driverId=4JDG5&osCode=WV64&fileId=2731098634&languageCode=EN&categoryId=AU .

  Another option to consider is to update your video driver to the latest version, download here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/win8-win7-winvista-64bit-320.18-whql-driver.html (it was released on 23 May). I suggest as an alternative as video drivers often include audio drivers as well.

  Those are the two pilots who appear to be more likely to adapt to your system, and if one or the other does not work you can restore the driver using the dialog of properties as follows:

  1. Go to control panel and click Device Manager.
  2. When that opens, click sound, video and game controllers.
  3. Select the audio driver / video, you have downloaded and installed.
  4. Right-click on the device and select Properties.
  5. When this window opens, go to the tab (on the top row) driver.
  6. Click the Driver Rollback button and left-click on it.
  7. Let Windows reinstall the older driver.
  8. Restart your computer.

  If all goes well, one of these fixes will take care of the problem. Keep me posted.

  Kind regards

• Install printer on Dell XPS 8700 B9180 drivers

  I have a new Dell XPS8700 computer with a 4th generation Intel Core i7-4790 processor with Windows 7 (64-bit).  I try to install my printer HP Photosmart Pro B9180 drivers.   I want to install: PS_BSIZE_CDA_B9100_Net_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe

  I get a runtime error where the setup.exe says that the application requested execution to terminate in an unusual way.

  How to install?

  Sorry for the steps not being is not clear.

  Can be found in the step 2, the UTIL folder 7Z folder. CCC will be in the UTIL folder. So once you open the 7Z folder, look for the UTIL and open it, then locate and open the folder of the CCC.

  In the CCC folder, you will find the uninstall options. Be aware of the uninstaller that you choose. the L3 is for HP computer and the L4 are for all other brands.

  To access the cleanup utility, click Start, then Accessories, and then click Tools System.

  I hope this has explained the steps more clearly.

• Dell XPS One A2010 CD eject button works only with Windows 7

  I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 and everything seems to work fine, except the CD eject button does not work, can eject CD with Windows Explorer by right-clicking on the CD drive and select eject.

  Down loaded and installed the R168233 - Intel DELL0100 proximity sensor Driver (ACPI) driver.  Failed to install (even after the course properties of the driver compatibility Vista file and selecting run as administrator).  Interestingly, Device Manager reports that the ACPI peripheral system Dell0100 utility works properly...

  Chatted with Dell Technical Support and they said to try to install the driver of Quickset M2010 page.  Installation message: "this is not a supported system."

  At this point, I guess that there is not a driver to get the manual eject button to work with Windows 7.  Are there the same system and OS with the functioning of the eject button?

  I had the same problem for years and by trial and error solved via update drivers, it was either the driver 'Intel DELL0100 proximity sensor Driver (ACPI)' proximity in the pilot game System Utilities or the "Cypress Semiconductor media touch button panel" in the set of Chipset drivers.

  Search drivers for model 2010 in Dell support section (or enter your service Tag #)

  After I updated those drivers, touchpad for media/volume started to work fine in Win7
