• A power of 1000w Dell Precision 690 United States will work in the British system

  I want to order a replacement power and found a Dell Precision 690 1000W ND285 power in the United States, I know that this system works this power but wanted to know if I ordered it from the United States to be shipped to the United Kingdom (England) it will work here or is there a voltage difference that will blow/effect it?

  The reason why I ask this is that I repair my friends Precision 690 power because it starts not as it should be because it has the dreaded 1-3 and power button flashing continuously orange. I usually get it going again for him leaving on the supply cable of the day after / for a few hours, but the problem comes back finally after some closures, so not a solution.

  His system has 32 GB of RAM, a processor my171 mother board 2 Xeon QuadCore 5355, a Nvidia Quadro 4800 graphics card and 4 SATA drives and 2 DVD r/w drives all sitting in the appropriate ports.  I tested it on and all the way to no disk no ram, but even in this case the problem may occur intermittently.  I don't know that his power relatively maybe even a little somewhere? but I've looked and looked and left with the feeling that his power.

  but the only one I can find that is affordable is to the United States, the price they want to pay in Germany, I could buy a car for.

• Dell Precision 690 memory risers

  Original title: Dell PRECISION 690 MEMORY RISERS

  Help...
  Ive a precision 690 workstation, WITH 4 GB = (2 X 2 GB) WITH MEMORY installed now and Ive mounted a 1kw power.

  I JUST GOT A PR OF MATCHING RISERS (EG) 1,2 & 3.4...

  BUT THAT IS WHERE THE PROBLEM BEGINS.

  THE DISPLAY SHOWS THE RISERS MUST BE INSTALLED IN SETS OF FOR.

  AS SOON AS I INSTALL MORE MEMORY MAKES THE FAN BACK SOUNDS LIKE HIS WILL EVEN TAKE OFF BY PUTTING IN THE GAME OF MEMORY (4 GB), I GOT IN WITHOUT THE RISER INSTALLED FANS TO ACCELERATE.
  SOMEONE POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BECAUSE IM CERTAINLY SOMETHING WRONG.

• Dell Precision 690 workstation several hard drives

  I have a Dell Precision 690 and I am trying to connect the hard drives in the right order. The documentation says they must go into the HARD drive marked locations on the motherboard, but they do not work. The only slots that work are the SATA slots. I tested five SATA drives but I can only get three to work on three SATA slots instead of four locations of HARD drive and slot extra SATA as the book said to do.

  I tried which helps the controller under the BIOS: has no significance if it is enabled or disabled. I determined that AHCI is unable to be activated, it must be ATA.

  In the end, I need to have five total drives. Four in the slots in the HARD drive and the other in the SATA slot. (Which will be for operating system 1 SATA and SAS RAID 4). I realize that the HDD_0, 1, 2, 3 locations are to use SAS/SATA but I can't take too much work.

  In addition, I don't ' know if this is important or not, but he has Windows XP Professional x 64. BIOS A05 and I know an update is A08, I did do that yet though.

  Anywhere I can find that material assistance would be much appreciated.

  -E.Avalon (help).

  Yes, there are three ports labeled SATA (0,1,2) and four ports labeled as HARD drive (0,1,2,3). The manual says to connect hard drives in HARD drive ports, then in the SATA ports. The first two SATA ports are for additional optical drives and the last port is used for a fifth hard drive.

  I got in touch with several people in technical assistance from Dell and eventually find the right driver to install.

  Because I don't have the OEM disc that came with the computer, I was doing a new installation of a Windows disc. I needed F6 (third party drivers) to activate the HARD disk ports until the installation has taken place. (And honestly I don't remember what the file was immediately.)

  The AHCI could not be activated because the discs I have are Serial ATA disks and in the BIOS, there is a choice between ATA and AHCI.

  The problem is solved and I feel like I could do a test on this computer and become a technician for her.

• My Dell Precision Workstation 690 cannot boot from the drive - I need help

  My Dell Precision 690 Workstation is unable to boot from the CD Rom what's happening, it's that when I boot it (revision of BIOS A05) and I go to the Boot menu and boot from the CD Rom it says floppy seek failure.

  Hi Yolega20,

  Well, the DVD drive seems to work otherwise? You have all other bootable discs you can try, such as the Dell drivers and Utilities disc?

• Precision 690 MY171 rev A00 mobo - hearts Xeon 5300 series

  Hello

  I know that this subject has been discussed in the past, but I am having a hard time finding an answer for my exact situation.  My Dell Precision 690 runs the rev MY171 A00 motherboard on rev A08 bios.  It currently has a single processor dual core Xeon 5150.  I want to upgrade to dual quad core Xeon 5300 series processor.  I've seen youtube videos and discussion with rev A02 MY171 boards that run the 5300 series, but nothing to confirm if the version A00 will run them.

  The rev A00 motherboard BIOS A08 MY171 will work two Xeon 5300 series quad core?

  Thanks in advance for the help!

  Today, I received my processor Xeon X 5355 to four hearts by post and installed in on my MY171 Rev00 on bios A08.  No problem during the performance of the processor.  I took out the battery from the motherboard for 2 minutes before relocation and commissioning for the first time.  BIOS immediately recognized the processor.

  I'm running window 10 and initially he saw only 2 carrots.  I went into MSCONFIG and made some changes on the STARTUP, the Advanced Options tab, you should uncheck 'Number of processors' and restart.  After that, the OS will see all 4 cores.

  I intend to run identical to the second X 5355 processor, but am waiting to get a second heat sink before a fall.

  Hope this helps others seek to upgrade the 690.  The two processors cost me a total of $20 on ebay.  Also got 16 GB RAM DDR2 PC5300 (8X2Go) for this computer for $10.  Computer will work great for $30 worth of improvements.  I still feel like they need SSD to run faster.

• Problems of precision 690

  I have Windows 10 technical preview on my 690 and I can't. I try to run the Dell technical support. It gives me this:

  "We are unable to recognize the service tag detected through our analysis. Please restart the scan or contact technical support for assistance. »

  What is happening with it? I entered my serial number manually and also used the software to detect it. Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  It worked! Everything is off the Execute Disable bit: in Bios/security and Win10 loaded on the Dell Precision 690 with no problems. Thanks for the idea! {:>) I guess I'll have a spare MB now at least. Was only about $30 with installed 3 GHz proccessors on Ebay. Thanks again!

• Dell Precision Workstation 690 with Win7-64 final. -3 TB hard drive?

  I have a Dell Precision Workstation 690 with Win7 64 Ultimate installed.  I want to use a 3 TB drive.  How will I know if the SATA controller is compatible with a 3 TB drive. ???

  How to know what Board motherboard or the SATA controller module I have?  When the computer starts first the BIOS detects SAS 5 Host Bus HBAO (?)  I forgot the exact name of disks while he finds the SATA drives.

  Greetings Tenoc,

  Thanks for posting your question on the community.

  The integrated SAS controller that comes with the Precision 690 name: 1068 LSI PCI - X - SAS 3 Gb/s controller. He is old enough, at this stage, and I'm sure that it only supports MBR (limit UP to 2 TB).

  You can try adding in a newer card, like the Perc H710. Not sure if it works or not. There are various other cards you might try there.

• Dell Precision M90 Windows 7 upgratde & 2nd HD questions

  Hi all

  I have dell precision M90 for over a year now, I bought it with the following configuration:

  2.33 GHz processor

  4 GB OF RAM

  NVIDIA Quardor 2500

  150 GB HD

  the machine is a mazing, but lately, I decided to upgrade to windows 7 and I have two main issues between them.

  has made a success improve two windows 7 with M90 cause I checked on the Internet and I see a lot of contradicting the opinions about it!

  The second question concerns the storage, 150 GB is already not much with windows XP and all my installed software, so I am really worried about space during the installation of windows 7. I thought to add a second drive, but looks like a long process, the removal of pay media and obtaining a cradle for the new drive. that is not sold where I am currently. Is there is another way to install a second drive, if this is not the case, would you advice guys of the evolution of the lintierly in a car with the largest one, keeping in mind that the only ones I can find on the market is at 5400 RPM and 7200 rpm the the one I currently have is?

  If you suggestions on the correct action would be really appreciated...

• (Redirected) Precision 690 starts

  I have 8-9 years old Precision 690 with dual Xeon 3160, dual nVidia Quadra 4500 graphics card, double SCASI Hitachi 150 GB, hard drives searched. Computer worked fine until he ceased to start up.

  At the start, it does not show with Bios A 06 Dell logo, as it should.

  This does not suggest that the problem is with the motherboard, boot hard drive or maybe the operating system?

  Any suggestion will be appreciate.

  With our thanks.

• Windows 7 works with the Dell Precision 670 computer?

  I have a Dell Precision 670 workstation. It came with Windows xp x 64. I later upgraded to Windows Vista Ultimate x 64. The only problem I had at the time is that the host SCSI controller is not recognized by Vista. I used the XP x 64 drivers for the scsi controller and worked well. I want to upgrade my Vista x 64 to Windows 7 x 64. Everything else does? Doing a job? The Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor reports the controller scsi HD as an unknown (just under the name Vista Upgrade Advisor).

  The HD controller is an embedded controller the Adaptec SCSI HostRaid (Ultra320). I was not able to determine the model # of the controller.

  A representative of Micorsoft with what I discussed this said as a general rule, if your hardware works with Vista service pack 1, you're usually good to go.

  On the Dell website, it lists the 690 as working with Windows 7. It is a similar job, but I can't say with certainty how similar.

  I saw him last night. I'll look over it.

• x 8 connection distance MXI causes conflicts with my on my Dell Precision T3600 PCI slot

  Hi all

  The easiest to say is that I am migrating from a x 4 MXI explicit connection to an x 8 MXI express connection and when I do I get an error on the motherboard which is unable to load the single PCI slot.

  Error in WIn7 64 bit Device Manager reports a yellow exclamation point

  Device "Intel (r) 82801 PCI Bridge - 244 properties"

  The error listed in the device status box: "this device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31) »

  Unfortunately, I need this slot machine to run a card calendar to conjucton with PXI hardware. There is no anomaly when I used the x 4 connections with virtually the same loadout except for one Exchange a PXI-5122 (x 4 config) to SMU 5122 (x 8 config).

  If I leave the MXI PCIe card in but do not connect to chassis PCI slot SMU (and the fine card appear.)

  If I remove the PCI card into the slot, the error still occurs.

  I swapped the x 8 card and NVidia graphics card without success (the 16 x only two slots).

  I photographed the reader and removed the H310 Dell PERC RAID card and charged the RAID array RAID integrated Intel C600 and still no change.

  I have updated BIOS to A07 to latest A08.

  I updated the Intel Chipset at the latest on the Dell Web site.

  I guess that I just wonder at this point if someone is able to run a x 8 MXI express at SMU with a Dell Precision T3600, T5600 or a T7600 chassis.

  After much work by NI Applications Engineer Kyle K, this problem has been resolved.

  I'll post the solution to this PC dependent problem here, just in case it will help others in a similar situation.

  It seems that Dell sometimes uses one default BIOS quite restrictive on the number of PCI bus in these (and other). By allowing several PCI bus, you will be able to list all the devices in the sacrifice of some memory available for OS 32 bit running on 4 GB of RAM. No problem for me because I'm under 64 bit OS.

  Congratulations to Kyle even if he has not posted here yet for him give real congratulations.

• Card PCI-6259 is compatible with the Dell Precision 390?

  Hi all

  I need help in answering this question.  I want to buy a better computer for my data PCI-6259 acquisition card.  I tried to search to see if the card is compatible with the PC and there's previous numbers with this set-up before other users.  Do you have a link to the list of the DAQ cards with tested PC configurations?  I want to just make sure that when I buy the computer, everything will work without problem because I only have one shot at this.

  Thanks to all in advance.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  We do not have a link to specific DAQ board/PC pairings, but the specifications for the Dell Precision 360 indicate that she has three ports PCI 5V which must be compatible with your PCI-6259.
