    I would like to know what processor for Dell Dimension 2400 can use as many of the ram size and what is the size of the compatible ram. From now on, my Dell Dimension 2400 has the Intel Pentium 4 and I want to make my computer faster.

    JohnLabib

    The Dimension 2400 supports a maximum of 2 GB (2 x 1 GB modules) RAM DDR.

    The Dimension 2400 can use 400 MHz or 533 MHz, Socket 478, P - 4 Northwood or Celeron processor with a 512 k or more small cache.

    The maximum size of the processor is a Socket 478 Northwood P4 3.06 GHz, 533 MHz FSB processor.

    The 2400 will not take Prescott processors [1 MB cache].

    Before upgrading the processor, verify that the latest BIOS is installed, with BIOS version A03 CPU microcode update has been added in support of the latest processors.

  • Memory for the dimension 2400 choice problem

    I am looking to order more memory.  A concert stick would be nice.

    My problem is the manual system provided with the Dimension 2400 says this:

    DDR SDRAM memory architecture
    Two memory connectors
    Capacity of memory 128-,-256, or 512 MB

    Maximum memory 1 GB
    Memory type PC2100 (266 MHz) and PC2700 (333 MHz) DDR
    SDRAM (non - ECC)

    To purchase memory from Dell Web site says this:

    Memory Dell approved

    Maximum memory: 2048
    Number of slots: 2
     

    512 MB memory Module for Dell Dimension 2400 / 2400C / 4600 Desktops $ 33,14

    1 GB Memory Module for Dell Dimension 2400 / 2400C / 4600 desktop $ 55,14

    If the Dell system manual is not saying 512 k by maximum stick and the Dell store saying 1 GB max stick?

    I would like to get a 1 GB stick.  What should I do?

    Hmm... I just read on user 1 GB stick magazines that many are running in their Dimension 2400.

  • New HP 2011 x 20 '' LED monitor for old Dell Dimension 2400. necessary graphics card?

    My in-laws have an old Dell Dimension 2400 and the monitor exploded. I bought a new HP 2011 x 20 '' LED monitor. My WIRE went to set up, and he tells her that a HMDI graphics card is required.

    This is a pretty old computer. I think he might have as... 512 MB of RAM. Is there an inexpensive graphics card that will meet their needs?

    And besides, when they buy the graphics card, are there all the cables that they must reach a new monitor to an old computer?

    Thank you very much!

    Nice description of Dell:
    Video connector to 15 holes :-)

    Seems to be a VGA connector.

    From the description of the monitor:
    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c02643130
    There is an also vga connector, so you will have no problem to connect the two.

    No additional card is necessary, no other cable - just use the old vga cable.

    Your only problem might be the resolution:
    resolution 1600 x 900 set at the factory for the monitor.

    I don't know if you can set the resolution to Dell, you should test.

    Otherwise a 4:3 normal/old monitor would be better than this 'big screen' new.

  • Dell Support download has some drivers for old Dimension 2400, responsible of what was there, but still have an unknown device

    Hi, hard drive is dead on Dell dimension 2400, re-installed with existing win XP (SP3).  Another computer used to go to Dell support and download line that few drivers I could find for the serial number.  (Broadcom Integrated NIC, graphics controller, Modem) Drivers installed and I still have an unknown device (point yellow question mark for unknown sandwiched between the network adapters and Ports).  Wired Ethernet worked before hard drive failure - properties for Broadcom 440 x say ' device working properly ", but it will not pick up a DHCP IP.  Set the IP to the network router and can now same URL and local peripheral ping like www.google.com , but cannot get to internet with IE explore manually.

    Is there any other software drivers that are found in Dell archive somewhere I need to load to remove the unknown device?

    Any idea this device might be hiding between the "network adapters" and "Ports (Com and LPT)?  Appreciate any help.  Thanks, Dave

  • Dell Dimension 2400 monitor

    My family has had this Dell Dimension 2400 years. We have had it since 2003, I think, and this is the first computer we've ever had, so I'm attached to it. Anyway, my dad got rid of the original monitor a couple of years for any reason and I bought a used LCD Proview monitor from a friend, but he has been commissioning, and after a few seconds, it just goes black. The top stays on and it is firmly connected to the tower. I think that there is a problem with the screen. Even though I wish the original Dell screen that we had before, I doubt that I find to sell anywhere. Then the following would be compatible with the Dell Dimension 2400? One of them or our office is too dated?

    The monitors are plug-and-play. It doesn't matter what monitor you get. Just make sure to get one with the same connections - VGA, DVI, HDMI - no matter what the connections are on the computer... However - your computer might be not too then try and test it with a borrowed monitor. Ten years is ancient in terms of technology. It's really time for a new computer.

  • Dell Dimension 2400 HD failure. installing new HD

    I have a Dell Dimension 2400. The computer crashed and the computer shows now no hard drive installed. I removed the hard drive and put it in one of my other computers, and my computer does not recognize the drive as a hard disk.

    I put another hard drive in my Dell, (same 40 MB; but different mfg) and the new hard drive is not recognized as a hard drive. I go into the configuration and it shows the diskette and cd installed, but not installed hard drive. Looking at the motherboard, is there that one connection for HDD in these models, so cannot plug into any other manor. Put the jumper to master on and cable that SELECT on but again Dell shows no HDD installed.

    The orig Dell hard drive, does not present as a drive in my work computer, but I'm trying to replace it with that.

    When I insert the OS disc that came with the system, it starts repairing and loads the files, but cannot format the hard drive and doesn't declare any installed hard drive.

    Assuming that the drive hard orig failed, and the new hard drive is a drive to work, are there specifics on something special that needs to be done when you install a new hard drive in a Dell Dimension 2400? I am unable to find all the technical manuals on how to install a new hard drive in my Dell, even though I have all of the orig CD that came from Dell.

    Any help/thoughts would be appreciated.

    Thank you...


  • Dell Dimension 2400 will not meet the key USB WIFI Netgear

    Dell Dimension 2400 Windows XP.

    Trying to get my old Dell back in action, but I ran into a problem. NO INTERNET.

    I have the WIFI in my house but I can't connect wirelessly with the desktop computer.

    I have a NetGear Wireless - N Dual Band, but dell WNDA3100 USB won't pick it up. The flash player is on, but it will not install the new software. It is said there was a problem and it probably won't work correctly.

    Any ideas? Thank you!

    first go to the device driver and uninstall everything dealing with netgear.

    also if it is listed in Add/Remove to uninstall and restart.

    above is a search page with instructions for installing xp

    you have version 1 or 2?

    just a thought you have wireless zero config service started/automatic services?

    After all your updates should be installed which will disable the autorun, so that when you insert a usb key, nothing will happen until you go to my computer and click on the device to open it, this was done so that you would have a chance to scan a usb usb being one of the fastest ways to spread a virus If she had previously plugged into an infected pc.

  • I bought Windows 7 install on my Dell Dimension 2400 currently Windows XP. I can move program Windows XP my laptop that is running windows 98?

    I bought Windows 7 install on my Dell Dimension 2400 currently Windows XP.  I can move program Windows XP my laptop that is running windows 98?  I need to access or code # s to do this and if so, how I get supplied with the printer Dell reinstallation disks have not all codes on them?

    No you can't. Given that it's a Dell and it came with Windows XP pre-installed, it's an OEM of Windows version.  The biggest drawback of an OEM version (at least in the USA) is that its license it permanently binds to the computer first it is installed on. He can never legally be moved to another computer, sold, or given to outside (except with the original computer). If the computer dies or is stolen, your license dies with him.

    And let me ask you as if you checked to make sure everything on the Dell is compatible with Windows 7, and there are Windows 7 drivers for all your hardware that requires it.

  • What's Dell Dimension 2400 desktop computer capable of capturing a wireless signal? Should this function be switched?

    Dell dimension 2400 desktop computer was plugged into the wireless router we have. We got a new computer and moved the old desktop (Dell 2400) in another room. It is not picking up, or even searching for a wireless signal. She still has this ability? How can we it give this ability?

    The Dimension 2400 is not normally a built-in wireless networking capability.  To view, go to the Control Panel > Classic view > System > hardware > Device Manager and double-click network adapters .

    If that doesn't show wireless network card, you can add it by buying a USB wireless network adapter or a Wireless PCI adapter card .

    Hi all

    Happy to discover this community and I hope I can get some answers here. Is there ANY video there card that would allow me to see the images that was shot in 1080 p on my old Dell Dimension 2400? Your help is very much appreciated here.

    Thank you.

    Hi NICOLAS,.

    Motherboard Dell Dimension 2400 does not come with AGP slot or slot PCIex16. You will have to look out for PCI video cards, but most of the cards are low profile cards. You won't get a FHD 1080 p resolution.

  • Dell Dimension 2400 desktop w/XP Home Edition: video card Question

    Hello people... last week, I got a desktop pc from a friend who walked away, Dimension 2400 desktop with Windows XP Home Edition. I plan on upgrading it and either sell it or it give. Last night, I ordered a titled graphics card "ATI Radeon 9250 card 256 MB DDR PCI"... which, after purchasing, I discovered via google and other search engines it takes to 220W - 250W power... the power supply installed is 200W... fundamental question is: should I upgrade the PSU? ". Or 200 will do well. Thank you!!!

    Hello

    Welcome to the community

    Have you tested the video card? The computer works fine with the new card? In this configuration, I suggest to upgrade the power supply. You can get 250W or higher power. If the computer is on, you can wait for that stop at random. Let me know if you still need assistance.

    Kind regards

  • Need help to reinstall Windows XP on a Dell Dimension 2400 desktop

    I bought this desktop computer Dell Dimension 2400 in 2003 as a wedding gift for my daughter and son-in-law.  They are busy and it was not much used, but it just got to the point where he needed the reinstalled op.  I've done it before on my computer so I suggest you to do it for them.  When my daughter went to recover the disks supplied with the PC there is no House of windows xp included reinstall op edition drive and I don't think I ever had one with the PC.  Other CDs were there.  I decided to try to use reinstall windows xp edition drive family of my Dell Dimension 2200 op.  I was told that it was OK to do this when I spoke with a Dell technician.  When it finished formatting and installation of the op I found that I did not set up an internet connection.  In Device Manager, the Ethernet hardware has question marks by them and are highlighted in yellow, even though I had put in the resource CD and downloaded that and everything on all the other drives right after the installation.  If I could get on the internet I could download the drivers and other necessary things for other minor problems, I'm having too large icons, etc.  The only difference between the Dell Dimension 2400 and my Dell D 2200 is the 2400 internet ready came from the factory, and I added the ethernet card in my Dell Dimension 2200, Linksys.  Otherwise, they both use the same broadband, Roadrunner, which is always on cable modems.  What can I do now?

    The product key is the 25-character code on the sticker on the computer case.  Keys for the home edition are not compatible with other editions (Pro, Media Center, etc.).
