Question of hardware replacement

I recently had a problem with black screen on my Inspiron 660 s son.  We ordered a DELL USB recovery drive, spare hard drive (WD1003FZEX), & compatible approved Dell upgraded (i3450s) CPU & GPU (Radeon HD 7750).

-Can install us all the new equipment & then follow the steps in USB recovery, or should we install 1 step at a time, after that we use the USB recovery... disk?

The 7750 came not with the 660 s.  Install the hard drive, then retrieve it using the USB.

Install once recovered the video card.

  • Qosmio G10: Question about motherboard replacement

    I bought the G10 around 2 years there are in the United Kingdom and who now live in New Zealand.

    I would say it has been a faithful companion, but looking back it cost much to get anything done, because of the ridiculous prices of the FSA.

    I experienced a power supply, two hard drives, my touch pad no longer works and now the GPU (graphics card) is dead.

    I'm sure that most of the people on this forum knows, that is, replacing the motherboard because it is on board.

    I am out of warranty and replacement cost is more than a qosmio second hand of the same age.

    Having done a lot of research on the internet about it.
    I found out that Toshiba US will free of charge replace the motherboard. I asked Toshiba AUS/NZ and they refused him, that it was not a problem.

    Toshiba UK/Europe does, or is it just the Toshiba US that cares about its customers?

    [Edited by: admin on 20-Sep-2007 07:11]

    Hello

    It's very sad to hear that! :(
    I want to share my knowledge on the Toshiba us and Europe.
    As I know the Toshiba us has nothing to do with Toshiba Europe or Australia/New Zealand.
    Portable computers designed for the American market are simply different and also supports different parts and numbers; for example the Qosmio G10 or G20 are not available in the United States but only the Qosmio G15 or G25, etc.

    If you have problems with your hardware, you must contact the partner service manager authorized in your country for further assistance.

    Regarding your question.
    Yes, it really looks like a malfunction of the GPU (graphic processor unit). This graphics chip is fixed on the plateau and in the majority of cases, the whole Board needs to be replaced!
    As you know, these hardware problems could still happen because the new age books are of the high-end products that work always with high performance.
    That s nothing unusual.

    I bought a year ago from G20 and I bought an extended warranty on avoid such troubles.
    So, I always recommend buying the extended warranty in the future.

    Good luck and best regards

    Hello

    This unit is an oldie. It s about 7 years and as far as I know it has been bundled with a 4 GB HARD drive.
    Unfortunately I put t believe that more HARD drive be recognized on this laptop.
    The series XCDT supports 4GB max and XDVD series supports hard drives 6 GB.
    Xdvd models were shipped with a DVD - rom drive and these models have been supported: SD-C2102 and SD-C2202
    In addition, it is not possible to upgrade the processor.

  • Questions about the replacement of a power supply for a P7-1235

    I decided to do an update on my Pavilion P7-1235. I put in a graphics card and put in power level. After doing some research on this forum and others I know well enough that I need. The only question I have is about the food. I don't know what the original power supply. There is a vent on the side where it however. So I guess that there is a fan on this side of the power supply. This eating plan I get:

    http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16817139050 & TPK = % 20500% 20% 20modular %2 watt Corsair...

    I noticed that the fan is on top? Now there is no high ventilation in my P7-1235, I worry for nothing? I think that all the supplys to look the same. What is the top of the fan page for? Or can anyone suggest a replacement perfect for my exact Pavilion model?

    Sorry if the questions are stupid, but I'm still learning and want to do what I can myself!

    Hello

    Yes, you can use the power supply the same way. The image is in a vertical position for the convience of the buyer. I have the same with number of power supplies and it was fine. You can check the following links people have set up exact POWER supply in different ways.

    http://pcpartpicker.com/builds/by_part/Corsair-power-supply-cx500m

    However, please be aware of your power supply size and your case. If you have all materials/components in stock for your computer, then it is what it is;

    ATX case:

    : Height 39.4 (15.55 inches)

    Width: 17.5 cm (6.89 in)

    Depth: 40.9 cm (16,14 inches)

    PSU stock:

    (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.4 inches)

    And the power supply you want;

    Corsair size;

    "5.9"x 3.4"x 6.3"

    As you can see the length of the Corsair is considerably larger than your stock of power supply. This could hampor of air or could even make it so the holes of the PSU and the case does not match. However, this is usually not what worry. The height and width that should be worried because the length rarely causes problems, I wanted to just make sure that you knew in advance.

    Take advantage of your power supply; Corsair is a great brand.

    Any help is very appreciated!

    Thank you

    It seems that the reference is the same. As long as the part number is the same, it is essentially the same part and should work without any problems. The only time where this part can fail if the part number is different. If a part is different from another part (software, hardware, etc.), it will have a different reference number. Also long that 461646-6 c 2 is identical on both, there is no problem with the disk replacement.

  • Question about the replacement of the dilapidated old Airport Extreme

    I have an old Airport Extreme, probably about 8 years old.   There seem to be wonky on me.  I tried everything, including resetting to the factory settings.  In any case, the point is that I have to replace the unit.  However, it is mounted in a box electric wall unit, which is not deep enough to contain the new style 'vertical' Airport Extreme which is meant to sit on a desk. It is about an inch too wide.  This new design really * for my situation.

    So, I'm stuck with a choice to replace it with another employee (or I think that some are still box on Amazon) old Airport Extreme, or with another unit of the brand that does the same thing.  Of course, I prefer to stay with Apple, like all my Airport Express, my Time Capsule airport and all our devices are Apple.

    What is the best choice?

    There is a third choice: install the new unit somewhere else than in an electric box armoured, metal. This is not a good location for any wireless device.

    No, the graphics card can not be upgraded

    What you can do, it is memory and the upgrade of the HARD drive. This should be very easy and should cause no serious problems.

    Upgrading CPU is little tricky.

    The hidden partition is needed for the repair of the system!
    If something goes wrong with the system, Vista would be able to repair the system using the files from the hidden partition.
    The Vista operating system creates this partition automatically during the installation of the OS!

  • questions of failure/replacement of Time machine

    I have an old time machine that was failing and I'm going to buy a new drive. When I get the new drive:

    4. is it possible to copy the contents of the current time machine disk to the new disk? The old time machine disk drive is 500 GB, and I don't have 500GB free on my disk system hae. Should I just unplug the old drive and I only connect if I can't find a file? In addition, 500 GB drives no longer seem to be available. The smallest drive available now is 1 TB.
    5. Is it possible that the failures of time machine, I had are with the time machine of tine software, not the drive? I'm under mountain lion. I don't want to update to OSX, because I do not know if all applications will break.
    6. the reason why I asked question 5 is that when the disc goes down, I disable the mac, disconnect/reconnect the time machine, turn on mac. It is possible that the mac start-up is enough, and I don't need to disconnect/reconnect the time machine. Thoughts here?

  • question about hardware dspfarm conference bridge

    Hi, I know that the software conference CUCM bridge can handl g711 calls. and under what circumstances, to use the bridge of material content?  the ISDN call is converted as g711 before he sent on the phones, and I do not see it is necessary to configure the conferencing bridge of material in normal conference call on the day the day.

    also on the same topic of DSP, if I PVDM3-32 and 64-PVDM installed on the same router and I want to configure transcoding on PVDM3-64, can I have the options to choose?

    Thank you very much.

    Roy

    Hi Roy, there may be scenarios where you have some users configured to use G729. In this case when these users try to join or use the resources of conference bridge, it will fail if you have only the software conference bridge. That's why I always advised to have resources dsp on the user of local router for the hardware conference bridge.

    Also, when the hardware configuration and software conference bridge, make sure that you do not assign them to the same GMP. The case Conference requiring a bridge material conf sometimes fails. This is because when they are assigned to the same MRG, callmanager them selects alternating. So make sure that you have separate MRG for soft conf resources and hardware.

    Yes, you can mix different PVDM3 modules in the same chassis; However, the DSP each chip in PVDM3 material has to be assigned to a task or another. For example. You can't have the same DSP chip (which there are two on the - 32 or four on part-64) assigned to do conferences and media simultaneously to terminate employment. Don't forget to use the Calculator of DSP to understand what you need.

  • Question about the replacement of router and new network location. Is this normal?

    Yesterday, I replaced my router with a another router of the exact same brand, model, and firmware version. The only thing that has changed as far as the router will have the MAC address.

    In any case, after that I swapped the router and plugged the network cable, I could use Internet all day very well. This morning when I turned on the computer, introduced me to all of a sudden with the Wizard "Set network location", and Windows has created a new situation "network 2". Everything always seem to work well.

    I want to just make sure that it is the expected, normal Windows 7 behavior after changing a router. I'm just a little paranoid because the network location Wizard pops up only the next day, I replaced the router, and not immediately after I plugged in the cable.

    Thank you!

    Yes. It's normal.  The delay in the command prompt is a little unusual, but I've seen this before.
