• How can I put an SSD inside a Dell Inspiron 660?

  First of all, I want to express how much I love your computers, Dell. You guys ROCK! Best brand of computer I've ever bought. On the subject; I have a desktop PC Dell Inspiron 660 with a 1 TB hard drive. I want to spend the hard drive for an SSD, but I looked inside your case and the hard drive has 2 rails metal (one on each side). That being said; How to fit an SSD in there? I know I need an adapter of sorts that it will allow to get into that, but how I'd cela in view of the way in which the hard disk is set up? I'm so confused! Thanks for your time.

  You install the drive in a silverstone adapter then put the rails on it.

• Updating desktop Inspiron 660 s graphics

  I have a desktop Dell Inspiron 660 s running with 6 GB of memory, 1 to hard drive and Intel HD graphics. I want to improve my graphics in order to allow a better gaming experience. I would like to know if it is possible to improve the graphics and if I could come to this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00IDG3NDY/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

  Thanks for any help!

  I think I have a small Tower because it doesn't have a lot of empty space inside. Is it possible to have a card not in the Tower?

  The GTX 750 will not work.  Only low-profile cards will be suitable to the 660 s.  You also only a 220 Watt power supply.  I run the HD 6570 HERE in 660 s who does well enough with the games.  Even if you can still find them (overpriced) because they have been abandoned, the 7750 HD HERE worked in the 660 s and was the best card you could get.  The Sapphire is available only used on ebay, but other brands are still there.  The HD 6570 would be higher than your Intel HD graphics and for the price can be your best buy.  You cannot run the cards outside your Tower.

• Card support FireWire on Inspiron 660

  I bought your desktop Inspiron 660 with Win 8 (original version, I think) a year or two ago.  Eventually want to use devices USB Audio (sampler Edirol UA-25, helmet DAC etc.) which are not supported by base 8 Win, the cheapest solution was to upgrade to a new version of Win 7 (I got a Dell version) with a new HDD in the desktop.   This arrangement works very well with all my USB audio devices.

  Then, I want to run an audio interface box 4-Channel M-Audio Firewire and Firewire PCI express card to receive from eBay.  It's a 1394, unbranded with chip WB381.  It appears in Device Manager - no reported problems. However the menu sounds in the Panel sees as an available playback or recording device, and the M-Audio box reports also no link.  I tried all three drivers available in Windows 7 for the card, as suggested elsewhere, without success.  M-audio box works OK with Win XP on another computer with a Firewire port that is provided by an OEM, but I don't have any other PC with ports PCI express to test the card...

  This is likely to be a problem of Dell software or a hardware/driver PCI problem.  Maybe I should get a card with a different chipset.  I note, there is a lot of posts related to problems with Firewire and Dell computers.  Are there tests I can run to determine what is happening.

  Thanks in advance

  Windows 8 and 8.1 firewire drivers are laminated.

  The only way to solve this problem is to use a card with Texas Instruments Chipset and copy the LEGACY drivers from a windows machine 7.

• Inspiron 660, power led?

  I have a desktop Dell Inspiron 660. The good news is that I have a very high quality HD camcorder.  The bad news is that it requires a FireWire port to connect with my computer. No problem, I thought. I got a PCI to provide one. It requires that a power cable be connected to make it work. I jumped to open the case expects to find the usual complement of lines of unused energy available for such use. In fact, there is nothing at all.

  The desktop computer Inspiron 660 doesn't have the old white PCI ports. There the new black locations of PCIe (PCI Express).

  

  Desktop Inspiron 660 PC =
  Three PCIe x 1 connectors
  A PCIe x 16 video card location

  PCIe cards should not require a power wire. You need to buy a FireWire PCIe x 1 card.

• Choice of a model of desktop Inspiron for two monitors

  I didn't keep on computer hardware for some time and I found myself completely confused now that I'm looking to choose a new system that will support two monitors. It seemed simple at first, but now I'm a little worried that I'm missing something.

  In any case...

  I am looking to buy a desktop Inspiron model relatively inexpensive which allows two monitors. What should I look for to confirm the system that I'm looking will support two monitors? At first I thought that I would need to have a discreet graphics as opposed to something like the graphics card intel integrated, but some of the things I've seen seem to indicate the onboard graphics on some of the tips Intel will do what I need.

  I would mainly use for extended desktop just to be able to open MS Excel on both screens, but sometimes I wish I could watch my DIRECTV on one of the monitors (probably by logging into my DIRECTV account, as I do sometimes on my laptop).

  Hoping someone can give me an idea here.

  Thanks in advance!

  No, I don't say that all Intel adapters will work. The link I gave was a particular model Inspiron. Apparently the web page changed, because when I went back to it, the page was different.

  You buy a system with a card video of at least one of the monitors. Or, if you really want a cheap system, you can buy one that has only the onboard video and then separately purchase a USB > {video) dongle where {video} matches at least one port on the second monitor, for example USB > HDMI.}

• SSD for Inspiron 2350

  Hello

  Is it possible to change my Inspiron 2350 for one SSD HARD drive? He came by default with a WD 1 TB HARD + 32 GB SSD drive for caching.

  I'm looking to replace the small SSD with a 512 GB SSD for OS and keep the 1 TB of data. Is this possible?

  Yes, it is - you need a player mSATA (NOT the newer readers of NGFF m2 which resemble the connector and displace mSATA market fairly quickly at the end).

• Radeon HD 7570 vs 7750 for Inspiron 660 s?

  I want to update my integrated Intel HD Graphics 2500 on my Inspiron 660 s, which has an I3-3240, 4 GB of RAM (which I intend to get 4 GB more), PSU 220w and Slim Case, a Radeon HD 7570 or 7750 which I just wanted to know which is safer to have with my diet and the profitability of this one. Thank you for your time and your response.

  None is validated and both use more power than a 6450 either kill your diet.  If you want to upgrade you must have obtained the mini lathe with minimum power 305 w.

• Graphics card for Inspiron 660 s

  Hi I do not know much about computers, but I have a Dell Inspiron 660 s and I want to upgrade the integrated video card. What video card will fit my diet better computer and power?

  7750 HD is very energy efficient.  He's going only to use about 50 watts of power when the games and a lot less when not.  In the comments of this card, those who bought used it on their 660 s Dell and doesn't seem to have problems.  The 7750 HD and HD 6570 will probably all have the same energy, but the 7750 HD is going to be much better for the games.  You would have to put down the way of things on the HD 6570 against the 7750.  Just do not overclock the card or you might have problems on such a small power supply.

  If you want to run at higher resolutions and settings to play with games today, I say forget the HD 6570.  However, even the 7750 HD won't all play on highest settings.  It's just that the 7750 HD is the best that you can possibly do for the system you have.  Office supplies Dell used to make more power in their slim cases.  I have a 275 watt in mine.  I would never buy a computer that had only a power SUPPLY 220 watt PSU if I had the game in mind.  My guess is that you would use probably around 175 total watts on the system depending on your CPU.  Obviously, the HD 6570 is half the cost of the 7750 HD so it depends on what you can live with and be happy.

  In conclusion, a 220 watt POWER supply is not plenty to run with the HD 7750, but others have run it on the 660 s so that's all I can say.  It's really up to you.  I give it a try if I was trying to play modern games?  Yes, I probably would.  But then again, I'm surprised by the games, people say that they can play with the HD 6570.  If your resolution is 1920 x 1080, then forget it in my opinion.  If your just running 1440 x 900 or 1280 x 1024, then you might be right.

• Add the SSD for HP Pavilion desktop computer

  Hello

  I would like to add an SSD for my HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office). I do not want to replace the existing drive, I would add a second drive.

  I have already noticed a free sata connection and a free power cable, but I didn't notice a physical position for the support and the screws etc...

  Does anyone know if there is a manual that describes the physical position for a 2nd drive in HP Pavilion 500-035ed (office)?

  Thanks in advance,

  S.J. Westra

  Hello

  Look at the picture below and see if your model is configured for one SSD installation.

  

  I see that your particular model is native/sold to the Netherlands.  There is a forum member that frequents this forum who lives in the Netherlands. Hmmmm that's a good guy!

• SSD for inspiron 5520

  Is there a way I can install an SSD in my dell Inspiron 15r 5520. It has 1 TB HARD drive

  This is supposed to hold the 5520 and 7520

  That said, make sure you check the service manual - there is a lot of dismantling to do to install it.

• Inspiron 660 cannot connect to Internet/cable network

  I bought a Dell Inspiron 660. It came with Windows 8, but I successfully installed Windows 7 Home Prime (32 bit) on the subject instead.

  The computer came with a "Dell DW1506 (802.11 b/g/n) half mini-map WLAN" and what appears to be a built-in ethernet port.

  However, it is supposed to be a desktop at home, and when I plug a CAT-5 cable to plug into our existing router (which has a Verizon DSL internet connection) it does not 'see' the internet/router/task force.

  Y at - it something I am doing wrong? How can I get this computer to get 'on' the network wired and not on a wireless network?

  I'm not completely tech-stupid, but I know that internet/cable networks are usually 'plug and play' and I'm puzzled why I can't get it to see the network/router.

  Thank you.

  Hi LakotaWolf,

  The problem might be related to do not installed the drivers.

  You can install the Ethernet driver for your system from the http://dell.to/18uMd9slink.

  Try to connect to the internet by cable after updating the drivers.

  I hope this helps. Please do not hesitate to answer for any further assistance.

• Upgrade your desktop Inspiron 570

  Hello

  I have an Inspiron 570 desktop computer and instead to buy a newer version, I want to just update some of the pieces. I want to do the following

  -replace broken USB 2.0 ports at the front with USB 3.0 ports

  -install an additional hard disk: SSD who will hold a new copy of Windows 10. I'll leave the hard drive in place for data.

  -J' have also 4 X 2 GB or RAM, so don't know if it is possible to replace these and this up to 10-16GB.

  That I have not changed or modified any of the office, so it is that he is out of the box.

  What is it exactly that I need to buy for the front USB ports and what considerations I need to do when you purchase the SSD because that's an inspiron 570?

  Thanks in advance

  You will not be able to take advantage of or install USB 3.0 like the motherboard has no connections to it and the chipset does not support.

  If you have a free SATA port, it is possible to add the SSD for the system. What you need to consider when buying the SSD is what title he is. For a Windows installation only, I recommend from 120 to 128 GB of disks because that allows updates. With this, you must map your my documents, my videos, my picutres and my music libraries on your 'data disk ' to avoid quickly fill a space. If you plan to install programs on your SSD I would say at least a 250 GB SSD.

  Regarding the RAM, the maximum amount of RAM the system supports its 8 GB.
