• How eliminate the duty press F1 on startup or restart my Dell Inspiron 530 desktop PC?

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Check the time system to see if it is correct.

  If it isn't, it's a sign that it may be a CMOS battery failure, which also having to press F1 is a symptom of, too.

  It's a battery power supply NET, size piece that keeps your system settings when your computer is off.

  They cost about $5 to replace.

  You can also try setting your Bios back to default values, if the time is correct.

  In the Bios, it will indicate which key support for defects: F5, etc..

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go into Setup/Bios.

• How to get or install a 2nd HD for Inspiron 530 desktop PC

  I'm helping a colleague to set up a new Dell Inspiron 530 desktop computer. It is not possible to order this online with a 2nd hard drive system. He's thinking about controlling the system with a single HD, then buy another HD locally and adding.

  However, what I saw inside my elderly parents Dimension 521, Dell goes HD using a plastic slider/support type and not with the 4 screws usual. I guess that the Inspiron desktop computer uses a similar system and that the plastic support is necessary to mount the HD in the case.

  I would like more details on this subject. Is there room to the desktop Inspiron for a 2nd HD? Is it possible to order the HD mounting bracket separately and how? Alternatively, if you place your order by phone, would it be possible to have the 2nd HD included in the original order of the system.

  Bob Brown

  Hi, Bob Brown,.

  Follow the steps below to locate the problem:

  Unplug all external devices:

  • A piece of equipment can interfere with the normal Windows startup process. Try to unplug all the devices in your computer, including:
  • Printers
  • Scanners
  • Media card readers
  • Small cradles of media (iPod, PDA, MP3 player, etc.)
  • Digital cameras and video recorders
  • USB storage devices
  • CD or DVD of all optical drives

  The only devices you should leave on your computer are your monitor, mouse and keyboard, if the computer is a desktop computer.

  Check if you have run diagnostic computer equipment:

  To run PSA Diagnostics, turn on the computer and press the several times at the Dell logo screen. This will start the unique Boot Menu. Select Diagnostics to start hardware diagnostic assessment.

  This test takes about 5 minutes.

  Reset the BIOS to default values:

  If your computer is set to the first attempt to start on another device, this can cause problems with the successful start-up of Windows. To reset the BIOS of your computer to the default settings, follow these steps:

  Restart the computer

  At the Dell logo on reboot, press of repeatedly until you see entering setup in the upper right corner of the screen.

  According to the BIOS, you may have to press a button on the bottom to load the default settings. For example, on the Inspiron N5110.

  Press ESC to exit the BIOS and be sure to select Save and exit to save your changes.

  Check if the computer starts in Mode safe:

  • Start the computer.
  • Type on the keyboard immediately after the Dell logo screen disappears until you see the Windows Advanced on-screen Menu of Options.
  • (If the Windows Advanced Options Menu does not appear, restart the system and try again.)
  • Select safe mode and press .
  • Log on as an administrator or as a user with administrative access.

• Upgrade CPU Dell Inspiron 530?

  I bought a Dell Inspiron 530 in October 2008 (Service tag <> NOTE from the ADMIN: Service tag removed by privacy policy >) and I would like to upgrade the processor. My current processor is an Intel Celeron 450 2.20 GHz. I think that my motherboard is a Foxconn G33M02. (But I am not sure, and I would like to confirm that, so that I don't get an incompatible cpu.)

  What would be a good upgrade from the processor that I can put in my current motherboard? I feel that my current Celeron 450 is a uniprocessor processor, and I would trade out for an important and remarkable improvement with more hearts (at reasonable cost) while keeping the same motherboard.

  I've already updated the PSU for a 460 Watt PSU and have also upgraded the video card. Looking for a good upgrade from the processor. I think I also need to update my bios of motherboard.

  livin2fly

  530 systems were built with two different models of motherboards.

  FoxConn G33m02 [Dell P/N ORY007] motherboard, this version does not support processors Core 2 Quad, only the Core 2 Duo, Pentium Dual-Core and Celeron processors.

  One of the following processors should operate in the 530 Inspiron:

  Intel Pentium Dual Core 2140 (1.6 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
  Intel Pentium Dual-Core 2160 (1.8 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
  Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5200 (2.5 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 (1.8 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E4400 (2.0 GHz, 800 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E6320 (1.86 GHz, 1066 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 (2.13 GHz, 1066 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 (2.33 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 (2.66 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB)
  Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 (2.80 GHz, 1066 MHz FSB)
  Wolfdale Core 2 Duo E8400, 3.0 GHz, 6 MB, 1333 MHz FSB, 65W, E0
  Wolfdale Core 2 Duo E8500, 3.16 GHz, 6 MB, 1333 MHz FSB, 65W, C0

  Before installing the processor, that you should check that you have BIOS Version 1.0.15 or above, when support for the new Intel processor has been added.

• Dell inspiron 530 will not start 4 beeps power black monitor blue button solid yellow lite inside

  maheisel

  Four "beeps", could indicate a memory problem, if you are comfortable working inside the computer, try to open the case, remove and reinstall all memory modules and see if that makes a difference.

  If you not comfortable working with the removal and the reinstallation of the components, then I suggest that you take the Inspiron 530 to a repairman.

  Is the power button LED, blue constant or flashing blue?

  Every change made to the 530 recently?

• Graphics card for Inspiron 530 desktop PC

  I need a replacement of the graphics card for a Dell Inspiron 530, I got in 2008.  Any suggestions?

  hudsonnyc

  Assuming you have the Inspiron 530 mini tour and not the Slimline version.

  You could install a GeForce 9400 GT 1 GB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x 16, with the default 300w power supply.

  I've been using same GeForce 9400 GT 1 GB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x 16 in the Inspiron 530, with the supply POWER Dell 300w, without any problem.

  The GeForce GT 240 1 GB 128 - bit DDR5 PCI Express 2.0 ready video card x 16 HDCP, would be also compatible.

  If you want to install a more powerful video card, this would require the set power level.

  Hello, this is my first post on the Dell forums. I have a Dell Inspiron 530 with these specs: Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 2.20 GHz, 4 GB of memory at 800 MHz and a GeForce GT 610. It's the mid 2007 530 model. I have an extra CPU laying around, Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600. I wonder if I can use in this office. Also, what is the maximum amount of memory that I can install in it?

  You should check what version of motherboard.

  The Inspiron 530 has two variants of motherboards, made by Foxconn and based on the G33M series.

  The G33M02 supports up to processors Core 2 Duo and the DG33M03 that supports the processors Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad.
      
  Inspiron 530 systems sold with Pentium Dual-Core or Core 2 Duo processors cannot be upgraded to Core 2 Quad processors without adding at least a 350W power supply and swap the motherboards to the DG33M03 version.

  The G33M02 does not support processors Core 2 Quad is because he has 6 ICs, the DG33M03 voltage regulator has 11.

  Note: Before upgrading the processor, make sure you have BIOS Version 1.0.15 or a more recent version, when support for the new Intel processor has been added.

  The Foxconn G33m02 [Dell P/N ORY007] motherboard, supports a maximum of 4 GB of RAM DDR2, 530 Mini Tower with a Foxconn G33m03 motherboard systems can support 8 gb (4 x 2 GB modules).

  530 s Dell 'Slimline' systems have a Foxconn G33m02 motherboard which only supports a maximum of 4 GB [either4 x modules of 1 GB or 2 x 2 GB modules].

  Note also for Windows to recognize 4 GB more memory, you must have a 64-bit operating system installed.
