Slow startup on dell optiplex

I went on my Dell Optiplex and for some reason is now take ridiculously long to load up, and when it loads up the screen is black, all you see is the mouse cursor. Finally, it load windows 7, but is very insensitive and takes a long time for the simplest commands. I loaded my pc in safe mode with network and it works very well, I was using the same pc last night and worked very well. The only thing I installed recently is updated from the Microsoft window.

When I was in SafeMode I used recovery option to take back me to another date, but the problem still occurs.

Please help me solve this problem, will be eternally grateful.

Thank you very much

  • Dell Optiplex 9020 fan slow speed

    Hello

    I'm pointing out the CPU of my Dell Optiplex 9020 and I noticed that the temprature rises and and the fan speed remains the same.

    I used a software monitoring temp to know what is the problem and you can see the main CPU temperature remains low, while the rest of them is much higher.

    Also, the fan speed remains the same...

    Is this normal?

    The fan speed has increased during the diagnostics, which should have?

    You can go on the Intel site to check what are the temporary specifications for your specific CPU, if that will make feel you better. But same 74ºC seems not very hot.

    Can anyone tell if I can get better performance?

  • Dell OptiPlex 755 SFF rear disc HARD fan Press F1 CORRECTED an error!

    EDIT: Fix for F1 error is on the #2 post. Try only if you know what you are doing and don't mind not having is not a HDD stupid fan. I now only use a SSD and it needs no power noisy fan to waste.

    ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

    I removed the fan hard drive dying on the Dell Optiplex 755 SFF (fan is built in a hdd cage) and modded the side of the case to include a Yate Loon 120 mm fan. I removed the hard drive in its entirety and then used cage the where the floppy drive has been to place my SSD 256 GB of free space. The system is much more pleasant that way, and now he has place for 120mm fan (already modded).

    However, at startup, there is a rear fan error and it asks you to press F1 to continue. It disappears when I connect the old dying noisy fan (has more room for it). Because I don't want the hard drive cage (or his fan also) and I can not put the fan back in, I want to use the connector and the son of the old fan dead and hang it in my nice new Yate Loon, which is the ideal solution for cooling (used as a suction fan).

    The color codes are:

    Yate Loon (D12SL-12): Red = 12v, black = mass, yellow = Tach (I think)

    Dell drive HARD fan (STROKE BN06015B12H): Red = 12v, black = mass, yellow? Blue? (PWM or tachometer)

    What are the blue and yellow for the Dell HARD drive fan? Can I just plug the Red of Dells Yates red and black wire on black? This should give me a 12v fan work, however I wonder if the loons Yate flying over red wire could be used for the sensor.

    Any help would be great. Really sad that Dell did not include a fan setting ignore in the bios.

    Thank you!

    SkOrPn

    EDIT: Ok, Yate Loon do not light up when it is connected to the fan header. What is missing? The old fan of Dell is rated 12v A 0.36 and the YL is 12v 0.30 A, less than the old fan so the fan header would seem like the logical place to get needed power as it provides much. When the old fan is plugged it provides 12v, but does not provide power when Miss the blue and yellow wires?

    Edit2: Ok, understood as the Yate Loon uses the Red wire as the 12v fan (somehow, I thought it was yellow). Now, I think that the yellow must be a son of tachometer for rpm. Now I'm wondering if the Dell system can monitor the number of TOWERS to connect the yellow wire without prejudice to the system without the connected blue. In fact, I wonder if the controller monitors just RPM to warn of the fan failure. If so, maybe I can connect the yellow and get rid of this error from the BIOS at startup screen.

    Hello

    I've linked yellow pine of wire of the connector of the fan HARD drive on yellow pine of the CPU fan connector and no fan of F1 more at startup error -correction

    I have no need for my SSD disk drive hard noisy fan.

  • OfficeJet 4650: how to connect 4650 HP to Dell Optiplex under XP, INTERNET CONNECTION NOT

  • PXI-8360 (MXI-Express) PCI-8361 + Dell OptiPlex 9020 = "device cannot start." (Code 10) »

    Hello

    I have a chassis PXI-1050, conencted to a Dell OptiPlex 9020 via a PXI-8360 and a PCI-8361 (identified as 199392B - 01L). It is Windows 7 64-bit. I can't start Windows very well, but MAX can't see all my PXI hardware. The Device Manager has also 2 inputs "PCI standard PCI to PCI bridge" with exclamation points.

    I placed an old FireWire PCI card in the same dwelling and recognized PC. Thus, the slot went very well.

    I transferred the PCI-8361 to an old PC that contains older drivers, and he acknowledged all my PXI hardware. For example, PXI gear works fine.

    What could be the problem? Here's a screenshot of my software OR installed. I think I installed all the drivers I need. I checked NI Update Service; There is no update of Critcal, and only updates and Service Packs listed are 2013 LabVIEW and TestStand 2013.

    JKSH,

    I look in that little bit more and think that I now know enough to be dangerous.

    The BIOS allows the PCI Express native control mode in Windows.  PCIe natively do not like some of the architecture when you use the PCI card version, so it disables the bridges on the PXI card.  I can tell that your OS is PCIe natively because it lists one of the ports as "PCI standard PCI Express to PCI/PCI-X bridge" Device Manager like you posted.

    I found that you can disable PCIe native mode, if you want to try it (but in general using the card PCIe is a better option).  Here are the steps:

    -Open the start menu and type "cmd" in the search box; Right click on "cmd.exe" and run as administrator.

    -In the command window, type "bcdedit/set pciexpress forcedisable.

    -Reboot.

    I don't think it would break anything (it doesn't have on a system I've tried).  If you want to reverse the trend, the command is ' bcdedit/set pciexpress by default'

  • printer drivers do not install on Dell Optiplex with windows XP

    My Dell Optiplex 745 is one of the workstations using a coupleof of network printers.  We had to spend a different network server printers when the old server is dead.  Dell Optiplex connects to the network but requires a printer driver must be installed.  I have the disc but still cannot install Brother HL 5250DN and drivers HP Laserjet 3055 printer.  The error is XCopyFile failed.  Technicians of brother and Dell have checked their end and the material is very well and that he is in fact the operating system software that is bad... I use XP Professional... What is the problem and how to fix it?

    My problem has been resolved.  Apparently, brother and HP did not have universal printer drivers that lead to malfunction during the installation of my printer server 64-bit for my 32-bit user workstations. Had to call the COMPUTER group to install the printer driver on the server - dared not do it myself because it might spoil the workstations.  Then I connected from my workstation on the server and downloaded the 32-bit driver option that I downloaded.

    Why companies can't simplify their software and make universal knowing that there are 32-bit and 64-bit users?

  • Can I add a memory for my Dell Optiplex GX280?

    Can I add a memory for my Dell Optiplex GX280?  He is running on 2 256 MB. dor2. 400 CL3

    * Nothing * to do with Microsoft Windows, really.

    One place of spec on (and to buy, actually) good memory of:

    With the help of their memory Advisor...  I see...

    Type of memory: DDR2 PC2-5300, DDR2 (non - ECC)
    Maximum memory: 4 GB
    Slots: 4
    Memory each slot can hold DDR2 PC2-5300 with a maximum of 1 GB per slot.

    But with this machine, except if you use it just for the essential (and nothing more recent than the manufactured 2005-2006ish date topic installed on it) - I suggest not wasting money.  Do pretend, raise money and then don't buy it.  What to do for the next few months and buy some replacement $ 300 with twice the processor, three times the RAM and probably several times in the space of hard drive... ;-)

  • Reinstalling Windows XP on a Dell Optiplex 760

    Nice day

    I reinstall Windows XP on a Dell Optiplex 760.
    The system came preloaded with it, even if the certificate of authenticity (COA) indicates has a license for Windows Vista professional.
    I'm reinstalling provided factory recovery disc.
    My question is, what to do when it comes to enter a product key? Of course the key to Windows Vista Business will not work. There is none on the system or on the cover of the CD.

    Well, I found the answer, it does not require a product key.
