Reference Dell reinstallation disks - Windows XP Pro

Does anyone know if reinstalling OS disks that dell used to ship with pc s cases specific to the type of model you purchased? I don't want CD Drivers Utilities CD JUST the OS.

I ask cos I've seen many discs to reinstall Dell OS on ebay with reference numbers found printed at the bottom of the disc itself.

Inspi6400

They were not specific to each computer. Any Dell XP CD cannot be installed on Dell computers.

For me, to help troubleshoot, please click on my DELL-Jesse L and send me a private Message with the number of Service Dell and your Dell order number.

    People,

    I have a Dell Inspiron 19. The Dell of Dell diagnostics disk utilities & drivers say all right. It is a Seagate 320 GB drive. I installed the drive on another computer and used sea tools to erase the disc.  Then I created a partition and marked as "bootable".

    Original problem seems to be a massive viral infection (owner had no active antivirus software installation!) which led to the non-bootable computer.  After working on this for a while, I decided to just do again it.

  • Problem with the reinstallation of Windows XP Pro

    A few days ago my Windows XP Pro showed an error at startup, which has declared "activation failed". I have been using the computer for several years. I installed my XP disk to recover the system. After several hours (overnight), he continued to show "Please wait".

    I decided to reinstall windows, it showed that I loose all my data, so I copied them to another drive, and then run to install windows in a different directory (C:\Windows2). I also used a newspaper different name in order to keep my files intact.

    Then, I decided to install windows on "C:\windows" with another in log.

    I now have a selection of dual-boot. One for windows and one for windows2 (show 'Windows XP Pro').

    My question is how I can remove the dual boot. I also need to eliminate some of the user data files.

    Then use msconfig to remove the entry from the start for windows2 installation menu and then delete the folder for windows2

  • Reference Dell 968 AIO, Windows 7 on Dell Studio XPS - messed up

    I have a Dell 968 AIO which was printing on the use of pilots (probably the original) on my Dell XPS Studio 8000 Win 7 pc, a week ago. He stopped printing a few days ago.

    I assumed the problem was the drivers and not the ink. So I tried to install the new drivers. It does not solve the problem. Indeed, the new drivers would not install completely. When he got to the last step of the installation the Setup program just hung. More on this in a minute.

    I bought new ink cartridges and allowed me to test the 968 printer and it prints very well now.

    However, when I tried to print a document from the computer.

    I tried to uninstall the old drivers and reinstall new drivers. Unfortunately, I got the USB cable is plugged. So I have messed up, and it would not print. He could not "locate the file. I tried after I unplug the USB stick and a running registry cleaning. Still no luck, but worse, I noticed that the installers had left a lot of luggage around.

    • There is a folder c:/dell/drivers/986, which seems to have a lot of the old drivers.
    • There was a folder c:/program files (x 86) /Dell AIO Printer 968
    • And there is also a folder c:/program files (x 86) (x 86) /Dell 968 AIO Printer.

    I followed the steps for a clean uninstall, and it is where I am now. However, there a lot of carrying files around in Dell matter folders on my hard drive.

    I'm sure I made a complete mess of things, can anyone help?

    Wendy,

    When you reinstalled the operating system, have you installed the desktop system software / laptop (as appropriate) and drivers from the chipset first? If this is not the case, the rest of the drivers will not install. How to download and install drivers in the correct order

    Start with the computer system software and the chipset drivers and follow the list.

    Once you have corrected, then we can work on the printer.

    First run, delete print jobs to eliminate any print job stuck in the queue.

    Unplug the printer.

    Download and run the patch (cleaning printer utility) until it prompts you to restart your computer.

  • Use of the disk Windows 8 Pro Hyper-V host to 100%

    Hi all

    I'm puzzled. I have a Windows 7 Pro VM a Windows 8 Pro Hyper-V host. When I start the virtual machine, the use of the disc on the drive that it is installed on goes to 100% (on the host). The entire disk, RAM & CPU usage seems normal on the host. The only symptom on the host is extreme latency when I click on things (!).

    As I said earlier, the host is running Windows 8 Pro. He has three physical disks - an SSD that the operating system is installed, and RAID two arrays totaling 18 to each. He has a physical processor, 6 hearts w/hyper-threading. 32 GB of RAM.

    The virtual machine is the only VM I allocated 16 GB of RAM w/dynamic RAM active I allocated 8 cores to it. The OS is installed on a virtual drive of 500 GB. I hung a second virtual disk of 4 TB (TPG), but it is currently offline. I thought maybe it was the problem, but the use of the disc is always maxed out at present. The only other thing I've tried, it is true that as a long-shot, had to change the location of paging on the other empty disk (on the host). That had no effect, either, and I will probably put it when I can. As I type this, the VM is restarted after installing Hyper-V integration services and an update of Windows (including SP1). This will probably take a while...

    Any thoughts are appreciated!

  • Dell Precision M4700 (Windows 7 pro) starts not once configured with UEFI and Secure Boot

    To all those who can help you:

    I got a Dell Precision M4700 and I update bios A05. I was intending to move to Windows 8. Everything was fine and the bios update was successful. I started the new bios under Windows 7 Professional (base OS) factory-installed and was very good.

    However, I can't get into the bios (not even see the POST from Dell or Logo) after I activate the UEFI and Secure Boot.This before I update to Windows 8 Pro. Now I'm stuck with a blank screen (same LCD not lit) and nothing to start. It's like a dead PC.

    Help, please. Is that what I can do or should I contact Dell Support for repair?

    Thank you

    I fixed it!  Just removed the CMOS battery, the BIOS got reset back to factory default.  So I did:

    (1) remove the battery

    (2) press the power button to the case of ground

    (3) remove the lower panel

    (4) disconnect the CMOS battery (it's tedious)

    (5) I hit the power button for some time (30 s) to clear the capacitors or something else, it was my theory, but I doubt it's necessary

    (6) use it to all back to the start

    When I turned it on it turns on and turns off several times before finally stay standing and I was then able to enter the BIOS and all the settings have been restored to factory default.  I am new to Windows 7 on my machine so I'll repeat the process, this time without disabling the legacy option roms!

    Here is the disassembly for precision M6700 and M4700 instruction manual if anyone needs:

    I hope it works for you!

    With the printer not yet taken 3000cn supported by Windows 8, what are the options to get the printer to work in an environment Windows 8?  Network printer and works seamlessly with Win 7 and XP.  Printer is still in good condition, so don't want to replace.  Any suggestions?

    I recently bought a Dell Inspiron 660 with 8 (64-bit) windows only to find out that I had the same dilemma.

    Is there a solution at this point? Absolutely, you can use the HP driver "HP Color Laserjet 2605 PCL6 driver class.

    The 3000cn model now prints color appropriately using this driver.

    Please note that if you install this driver and just monochrome output, you need to change the "Color Mode" PCL from black to color in your panel of the printer.

  • Reference DELL Modular Disk Storage Manager cannot see MD36xxf because of the version of the firmware to high

    I have a DELL MD3600f that is connected to a DELL R710. The system was all the installation and work programme, but the OS disk has become corrupted and had to be rebuilt. The system has not all backups, because it was still under construction. The problem is that a system administrator updated the Firmware on the MD3600f to the 07.80.41.60 version. According to the notes the versoin of DELL PowerVault MD Series Storage Software Resource DVD 3.0.0.18 or later must be installed before update the RAID controller firmware.

    Problem is the update of the firmware is already in place and the MD storage software cannot talk to the MD3600f now because of the correspondence of Miss firmware.

    No matter how lucky it is a updated software storage MD there? I tried low grade firmware, but that has been denied.

    Why not give the link to the latest version; 4.1.0.88?

  • Reference Dell Webcam Central &amp; Windows 7 (Version Windows 7 of the Dell Webcam Central program)

    In other words, could someone please post a link to the Dell Webcam Central GENUINE for Windows 7 software, wherever it is on the website of drivers Dell?

    I do not mean some 3rd hokey, rate of Vista (or earlier) version of the program, but rather the version of OEM Windows 7 32-bit true Creative Labs developed specifically for Dell laptops and netbooks (and please don't refer me to the CD 'Application' that came with the computer, because it is not found).

    Dell sells laptops with the built-in Webcam Creative Labs and the Windows 7 operating system for a few months now, and I know they would not have understood the old Vista (or even XP) drivers for use with its newest operating system.

    I looked high & low and read about all the posts I can get my eyeballs on, but everyone seems to advise loading of old, obsolete Vista or XP drivers rather than the new Windows 7 ones, which were obviously having your computer, because it had Windows 7 top from departure (and it's not the scenario of "upgrade after the fact" or the other).

    So just a link, please, to Creative Labs Webcam Central program for Windows 7 Dell OEM.

    It may be that big a deal...

    P.S. I also need the tuner drivers TV Hauppauge of Windows 7 (the bunch of them) for a Mini Inspiron; they must be there somewhere, as well.

    I obviously prefer the OEM Dell version, but I DO NOT want (and not use) the older versions of Vista or XP, which seem to be available in all directions on this site; I want only the things real 'fact-for-Windows 7'

    Thank you.

    There is no Dell Webcam Central for Win7.

    When you check on the Dell / Win7 page under software compatibility, it is not there. For not to mention it is just not going to work. The webcam is fine, the software is not. Until Creative Labs cough one up. Can display on the page then Dell drivers & downloads.

    Regarding your comment about the drivers, Dell Webcam Central is an application, not a pilot. The webcam has native driver support in Windows and works on a number of machines (mine is a Latitude E6400 and a Precision M6400, Win7 64 bit for both). The issue is not the webcam itself... it's that Creative Labs has not yet re - build the application for Windows 7.

    For "True is for Windows 7 tips, Dell is not just the drivers or applications." They get the provider of OEM apps / hardware, so until that companies should meet and create it, it isn't there.
