(Redirected) Can I install another OS on Dell edge gateway 5000?
I have comes preloaded with Snappy, but I would try a different flavor of Linux. Can I do this?
The machine supports a 32 bit OS?
I have no 'apt - get' with Snappy packages available through 'snappy install' are quite limited. I was wondering if I should create a bootable stick to install a new OS?
Better for this post in the Forum Linux, here:

Can I install Mac on my Dell Inspiron 3537 i5?
as they say on Tittle. What I install Mac on my laptop or it's good for dell lap - top for install this OS :), and if I can't, it's better for windows 8.1 or Windows 7? Ty for your time and I hope that someone will answer my question :)
Mac OS is locked for Mac hardware. Some people supported the hack to install it on the hardware Dell, but its not recommended and certainly not taken. If you want something like Mac OS, you can install Linux since its essentially a commercial version of Linux.
Windows 8.1 is recommended on this system and the system should have been delivered with Windows 8.1. 8.1 Windows has a default terrible user interface and this should be changed following the instructions here:
Although Windows 7 has a better user interface, Windows 8.1 will perform better and you won't need to download > 200 updates. Also in late summer that all Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 computers will be auto-updated Windows 10 (which sets the user interface of Windows 8.1) so there is little sense in making a full install of OS to get Windows 7 and not worth the price of a separate license of Windows 7 for only a few months of use.
If you're curious, you can install Windows 10 Technical Preview:
It is recommended to do the recovery with Dell Backup and Recovery Media by following the instructions here before installing another version of Windows or Linux:

How can I install my printer model Dell 720 on my new Dell XPS 8500 with windows 7
I have the software for my Dell 720 printer, but it will not install on my new Dell XPS 8500 with windows 7. It works fine on my Dell Dimension 3000 with windows XP. I would use this printer with my new system
Dell is not a Windows 7 driver for this printer. The closest thing they have is a driver for Vista 32 bit. So your options are to (1) Download 32-bit Vista driver and try to install in compatibility mode, (2) use XP Mode if you have the professional or Enterprise version of Windows 7 Ultimate, (3) buy another printer.
You can download the Vista 32-bit driver

Dell Inspiron 2320 video card - can only install the drivers for Dell?
Is it not possible to install the direct drivers of nVidia? Dell drivers are quite obsolete compared to those that I can download on the nVidia site...
If it is possible, how? When I try to install a nVidia Driver it says that it cannot detect the compatible hardware.
Hi fabriciofla,
My apologies for the information I have given in the previous post. Dell Inspiron One 2320 a NVIDIA Optimus technology then you will not be able to update the drivers on the manufacturer's Web site. Ask you to wait that we test pilots and launch it on the Dell support site (time is not fixed).

Can I install another OS instead of the one pre-installed?
Hello
I recently bought the Pavilion 15-e002AU. It came pre-installed with Win 8 unique edition.
Whatever it's great this day except for the thing that I don't like in the computers of brands.
There is only a single partition of 907 GB which stores everything in it. This includes the operating system, program files files & user.
I would like to actually split that my hard drive in different partitions as its got a lot of benifitts:
(1) good way to organize your stuff on PC
(2) rarely a backup would be required if you need to re - install the operating system
(3) of new things with different operating systems without affecting your files real experience.
Follwing are my questions:
(1) what are the consequences if I create partitions of the HARD drive?
(2) can I reinstall the same edition to win 8 (like today) in a separate partition for sure, I have a legal copy?
(2) is what this will obstruct the warranty anyway?
It is recommended to create a recovery image and keep it with you in order to restore the system to factory settings in the future if it is needed.
It may be necessary if you are stuck in the resettlement of the detail, OS process, it may be necessary if there is no problem of material with your system and you contact technical support etc..,.

Can I install another GPU in my system?
I have a laptop P500. I would get a GPU Nvidia and install it on my system. But I don't know if I have any housing open for it. My laptop is still new did not make changes except for installation of software. Could someone help me?
Hello
The Gpu is soldered to the motherboard and cannot be replaced by a new. It's the same in most of the laptop, except with ultrabay who unfortunately didn't P500. You will need to change the motherboard to change the gpu and that too with the same.
Hope this helps

Desktop HP pavilion 6206 can I install another dvd rw drive and how do I connect it to the top
HP pavilion 6206 Office windows 7 32 & 64-bit
Malachy c. gillenMalachi,
Here is the upgrade of the user manual: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01835715.pdf
Unplug all cables (including the power cord) and open the case. You must locate an unused SATA power cable.
Example of a SATA power cable:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812104652
The SATA plug in this example is black. If you do find one pending in the case, you will need this adapter to connect to a vacant molex to convert to SATA power cable.
