• Dell studio xps 435/9000 new cpu required

  Hello

  I posted here earlier on my dell studio xps 435/9000 beeping non stop on start up.  I discovered that the CPU is the problem and must be replaced.

  I have an Intel Dual core i7 (socket LGA1366) processor, what are my options for replacement?

  Can I he move to a Quad core as long as the plug is the same, or should I stick to a dual core.

  If I replace the processor should I replace the motherboard as well?

  Is there a way to know if a particular processor is compatible with my motherboard? (the other is the same)?

  Any help is appreciated, thanks!

  alymad

  The following processors are compatible with the Dell Studio XPS 435 t/9000:
     
  Intel Core i7 920
  Intel Core i7 940
  Intel Core i7-960
  Intel Core i7 965
  Intel Core i7-975

  Before installing the processor, make sure you have BIOS version A16 installed, what support for Intel processors has been added.

• Studio XPS 1640 does not start. No bios, no control of fan. Volume + / illuminate, flashes of silent light...

  I have a Studio XPS 1640 (model PP35L) that will not start. Fires along the sound card light upward from left to right and back (as it should), but then stops. Them increase volume and low lights stay and the mute light flashes.

  The cooling fan is not test, or do anything else. Nothing on the screen or the other.

  I have re-seated ram to check it was OK

  A Google search is supposed to replace the motherboard. I did this and the problem persists.

  Someone at - it tricks, tips or advice please?

  Thanks for the reply! The problem was a crooked PIN. Once I straightened the PIN and reused thermal paste the laptop worked perfectly. I don't know if I did it, but I didn't have the old motherboard to see.

  Thank you!

• (Redirected) Error POST LED codes laptop Studio XPS 1647

  (I posted this on the forum of portable equipment, but it has been a few days so far that there is no help yet).

  Symptom:

  Studio XPS 1647 computer laptop cannot start after POST and pasted to the Dell screen with about 80 percent progress bar. After that now the FN key and press the power button to start ePSA, all three volumes would be flashes two times, immediately followed by the MUTE LED flashing layout and then jump, followed by up and down LEDs + turn signals and the volume upward the LED switches off the coast and then just the Volume Down LED flashing continuously. The fan is switched on immediately after the PSA starts at slow speed, and then it runs faster after a few seconds with the noises.

  My Studio XPS 1647 has recently had overheating problems, and sometimes they would cause BSOD. A reboot after BSOD shows always broke the screen images. The BSOD has always come with error bcode 116: it's apparently related video card. Last weekend so I opened the case, removed the radiator and fan. The event of heat sink was completely blocked with a thick layer of dust, so it is no wonder the overheating. I have cleaned the vent system to the radiator and fan, cleaned the top of the processor and the upper part of the GPU chip, the shape of base paste heat and everything back together. After that, the machine could not go to the Dell splash screen at startup.   I already checked the discussions and followed suggestions on holding down the power button to remove static, the reinstallation of the memory card, etc., but they are of no use.

  The following video shows the locking POST LED codes:

• Studio XPS 8100 does not start

  Hello!  I have a 2010 studio xps 8100 (Intel (r) Core i7 CPU 860 to 2.80 GHz, 8 GB ram) and it's great when it works.  Last week, I was out of town and when I came back it would not start upward.  I can turn it on and start the fans, but it does not pass the POST and therefore does not start.  I tested the ram and it seemed ok (two beeps when trying to boot without ram, no beeps when ram is correctly placed).  The original of the graphics card died last year and I had it replaced with an EVGA Geforce GTX 750, I chose because it was one of the few cards that could work with the power supply 350w provided with your computer.  I thought that maybe the PSU was then replaced by a 500w PSU, but the problem persists.  I then read somewhere that if you SNYC date/time problems (which I was when the computer would turn on) that you need to replace the battery on the motherboard, so I did and still does not start.  I don't know what I can do, is the dead motherboard?  I tried the drain the power thing (release the button so that disconnected power for 30 seconds) and that didn't work either.

  maddygillis

  Yes, but I'm sure that the battery is not the issue.  If it was I'd get stack codes error beep (5 beeps).

  Not necessarily...

  maddygillis

  It does not pass the POST because it does not start...

  If the video card is faulty, the PC can still start but you just do nothing appears on the monitor, so I don't know that you can actually say that it does not pass POST.

  When you have tested the monitor with your laptop, did you use the same cable and video port on the monitor that you use with desktop? If you have used another port on the screen with the laptop with the office, this is not a fair test.

  Have you tried reinstalling the video card into its slot and check the connections of the video cable at both ends?

  This system has onboard video and Pluggable software component video card. So, you can remove the add-in card and switch the monitor to the onboard video port. According to the specifications, the onboard video has HDMI and DVI outputs, so assuming that your monitor supports either people, you have an easy way to test more.

  NOTE: The embedded video ports are DISABLED unless you physically remove the video card. If you cannot move just the video cable to a built-in port while the video card is installed.

• Update graphics card for Studio XPS 8100 with 600W PSU

  Hello

  I just joined the forums of Dell and I was wondering if I could get help for choosing a new graphics card for my studio xps 8100.

  I just bought a power SUPPLY Corsair 600w PSU and was looking for a good graphics card for games (something which runs the games current and near future at the top or above), preferably between 70 and 100 pounds. I took a look at the Geforce GTX 650, and I think that the power supply 600w she'll be fine, but I wasn't sure whether she would be fit in my office. Any advice on the appropriateness of the GTX 650 will fit / work, or any recommendation of something better, would be great.

  See you soon

  Hello Oni21,

  My apologies for the delay in response and if was not clear in my previous post. I wanted to say before you buy the GTX650, take the computer to a local store and check if the graphics card works on the system.

  Please write again if you have any additional questions.

• Dell studio xps 1645 sound driver IDT works only when it is installed.

  I have the dell studio xps 1645 with windows 7 home premium 64-bit installed on. I have a problem since I format the laptop and reinstalled windows 7 and driver.

  The problem is that with the IDT sound card driver. When I start up the laptop, I couldn't find any noise until then I install the IDT audio driver which is from the website of dell (dell.com.au) under the drivers of dell studio xps 1645 by download. Sounds appears when I installed this driver, but it is not as it should. I mean whenever I do reboot or turn off and then on the laptop, the sound will not come up to what I do reinstall the driver again. The thing is that I have to reinstall the driver whenever I want to use the laptop. can you help me out of this problem? is there any solution for this? I did some research until I get the way to recover my sound, but yes I'm stuck with this relocation pilot to use sound. I did troubleshooting of windows and he said nothing wrong with it. I'll also technician support close to home and they couldn't find anything wrong. I therefore ask microsoft in the hope that they know the way

  . Thank you.

  Hi Felix,.

  Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of community of Microsoft.

  I understand that the sound of your system plays only after you update the audio drivers. The question could arise due to the installation of the corrupt or incompatible driver package.

  Before troubleshooting, I would like to inform you that the drivers for the model of your system on the Dell Web site are displayed for Windows Vista, by default. So, I recommend you to change the operating system to Windows 7 while choosing for pilots.

  In addition, I would suggest trying the following methods and check if the problem persists.

  Method 1:

  Try running the fixit for audio playback of Windows problems and check if it helps.

  Diagnose and solve the problems of Windows audio playback automatically

  If the problem persists, try the following method.

  Method 2:

  If you have installed Windows 7 drivers from the website and have not properly been able to play the audio, then I suggest you to install the Windows Vista drivers from Dell site in compatibility mode and check for the issue.

  1. Download the Windows Vista driver on the Dell website.
  2. Right-click on the downloaded driver file.
  3. ClickProperties , and then select the compatibility tab.
  4. Check enable the option run this program in compatibility mode for: , then select Windows Vista from the drop down.
  5. Click OK and install the driver.

• Studio XPS 8100 Wifi not recognize connections

  Hello, I recently moved to College with my Dell Studio XPS 8100. The school offers wifi, which I can connect to a bit on my laptop, telephones and even consoles. However, my computer tower in the same exact place can't save even that wifi connections exist.

  While the school wifi does not seem to use some sort of proxy, I can locate and connect to it fine on my laptop Dell Inspiron positioned at the same place as my turn, so I don't think there is a problem with the routers or the school wifi connection. There are also other close connections (my roommate printer, wifi from a neighbor) that are independent of the school which are also not be picked up by my computer. Only, he has a red X over the wifi symbol and said that no connection is available.

  While at home, I had no problem and the unit has not changed since then. I don't think there is a wifi external change, so I don't think I fell anything during the move. (But if I'm wrong, please let me know).

  As far as I can tell, I've checked the Device Manager, all the drivers seem to be activated and functioning. I tried a system restore to the week last to see if an update may have changed something, but it had no effect. I also went to the Dell drivers & downloads and downloaded and installed the latest network driver (1525 Wireless Atheros WLAN Mini Card Desktops, v.8.0.0.376, A02) which was available for my model. It also did not help.

  System information:

  Network Card(s):           3 NIC(s) Installed.                           [01]: Broadcom NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet                                 Connection Name: Local Area Connection                                 Status:          Media disconnected                           [02]: DW1525 (802.11n) WLAN PCIe Card                                 Connection Name: Wireless Network Connection                                 Status:          Media disconnected                           [03]: Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter                                 Connection Name: Wireless Network Connection 2                                 Status:          Media disconnected
  

  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, a computer without wifi does me no good so I'm banging my head on the wall trying to figure this one out.
  

  Well, I must say that I am a little disappointed that I have not received a response from the help here. Way to go Dell. Really feel the 'support '.

  I love how a problem one sentence posted a few days later got more than 100 responses. Maybe next time I not giving all the details of the sentence and just say "my wifi is not working help me please?

  Anyway, pretty passive aggressive. For anyone who comes across this post with the same problem, here is how I fixed it:

  I jumped open the computer because I was sure it was a hardware problem, and of course, there was a layer of dust on my ethernet card and connection strips but seemed dull and did not make a good connection. Carefully, I removed the card and cleaned, replace it. I also made sure my antenna that comes with the computer has been fully connected (believe me, this tour can not pick up wifi at all without them, to ensure that the antenna is in!)

  A few reboots later and he remained in service.

• Studio XPS 8100 - (Best Buy Version) bought end of 2010 4 GB DDR3 Ram problems 1333Ghz

  Greetings,

  I bought a Studio XPS 8100 in late 2010 at a Best Buy store. It came with 4 cylinders of 2GB 1066Ghz (each cylinder), adding up to a total of 8GB spread on 4Slots, all of a sudden one of the slot (Slot 2 to be precise) Ram began to fail, so computer would beep to reveal no ram or sometimes ram write failure etc. So, to avoid problems with this slot (Slot 2), I got rid of all four locations of 2 GB and wanted to replace them with the following ram: "(Kingston HyperX FURY 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 CL9 DIMM quantité = 2 d'ajouter jusqu'à 8Go en Kit) ', but my computer is beeping not revealing no ram detected." Now, according to the Studio XPS manual, the configuration can be either Ghz 1066 or 1333 Ghz as long ram DDR3 of Ram.

  I would like to know why my new 8 GB kit (2x4gb 1333 Ghz) does not work with my computer Studio XPS 8100? RAM is correctly inserted on the slot 1 and 3 (I even tried different slot combinations).

  It would be a great help if you guys can let me know what DDR3 1333 Ghz Ram is compatible with my Studio XPS 8100.

  Thank you!

  I contact Kingston technical support and get their help.

  I think the chipset on the studio XPS 8100 is H57.

  H57 is not listed as a compatible chipset on the webpage the HyperX fury.

  http://www.Kingston.com/us/HyperX/memory/fury

  Could it be the timing or Sub timings and memory density or...

  Kingston has maybe a different kit that will work and they can exchange.

  or return it and check the crucial.

• Satellite Pro A - beeping during POST

  Hello.

  I have a problem with the BIOS POST check bothers me. The problem is that when I rebooted my computer or put on sometimes during POST (when a Toshiba logo appears) there is a beep beep. Especially there is no signal, but there are sometimes even noise.

  So the question is: is this a problem at the level of the material or is it a problem in the BIOS (by the way, I re-flashed the repeatedly - BIOS without result).

  Thank you.

  Hey Buddy,

  This means that you get only sometimes a beep code when you start the laptop or is it always?

  These beep codes mean usually there is a hardware problem but I think that only an authorized service provider can test this exactly.
  What you can do is to reset the BIOS to default settings and if you have two memory modules live, test it with a module only.

  I have a studio xps 8100. The cpu fan started reving to about 3000 rpm, then back to 300 rpm around every 8 seconds. There is no adjustment of the fan in my bios, and I have the latest version of the BIOS update. I blew all the dust. I went from fans with my wifes computer and she always does so is not the fan itself.  I installed speedfan is watch without adjustments for the speed of the fans, he didn't tell my the CPU cores are running around 40 to 50 degrees Celsius and the chart for fan1 up and down from 300 to more than 3000 rpm. Any ideas on what is the problem and how can I solve this problem? The fan slows to 300 RPM will damage my CPU? Appreciate any help I get. Thank you.
