The upgrade of Inspiron 580 s

Hello!

I am trying to upgrade my s 580 Dell Inspiron (i5 with * easy *) for purposes of games.  I recently installed a MSI GeForce GTX 750 graphics card ti low-profile and is now looking to upgrade to the power.  The PSU in my computer is currently at 250 watts, while the minimum for the card is 400 watts.  I've heard that I should probably get a 500 watt PSU, but have yet to find one.  The closest I can find is the TFX power to 400 watts.

As I'm new to computer hardware and to work with him, I just want to check to make sure that nothing not escapes me.  A 400 watt power supply would be sufficient?  Or is there one available 500 Watts that will fit in the slim case?  In addition, apart from the PSU, is there anything else that I need to replace the graphics card to work properly?  I wish that my computer does not melt, ha ha.

Thanks in advance!

The TFX 400w unit should work as well.

  • Use of the video memory Inspiron 580

    I got a STD Inspiron 580 on 2 years ago and I've recently upgraded the video card integrated with a GeForce GT630 2 GB card. Now I am checking the use of memory for my system, now that I have an equipped graphics card, is it possible to change the dedicated graphics memory and shared system memory because it would free up on my machine, which is currently 4 GB of RAM.

    Will also change the foregoing slow aspects of my computer down?

    Hi KRIS537,

    Inspiron 580 system BIOS doesn't have an option to change the shared memory. It is handled automatically by the system and is disabled if a video card is detected on the system. You can follow the steps below to check the memory available in the system configuration:

    • Turn on the system
    • Press F2 on the Dell splash screen
    • Highlight the system information and press enter
    • You can find the installed memory and available memory .

    I hope this helps. Answer please if you have any other questions.

  • The upgrade of Inspiron 9400

    I have an Inspiron 9400 with 60 GB HDD & Windows XP. I plan to upgrade the hard drive of 320, & install Windows 7 and possibly Windows 10.  I was assured by the Dell technical support that my Inspiron works with Windows XP or Vista. I already ran Rebecca Linux Mint 32-bit from the DVD without any apparent problem. My question is, I can actually install Win 7, or should I switch to Linux? Windows XP gets worse & worse! I held account install Win 7 on a bootable usb hdd to test this point.

  • The upgrade of Inspiron 9300 Hard Drive not recognized

    I bought an upgrade of my Inspiron 9300 laptop hard drive:

    Old hard drive: TG754 Hard Drive, 60G, 9.5 MM, 7.2 K Hitachi, Moraga, unleaded

    New hard drive: 250 GB SATA 3 Gb s hard drive 16 MB 7200 RPM 2.5 IN. w o free fall Scorpio black

    TG754 Hard drive, 60G, 9.5 MM, Hitachi 7.2 K, Moraga, unleaded

    I don't know I installed it correct (just slide in and screw it) but my problem is that my laptop does not recognize the new drive.  When starting it complains that no hard drive is, and when I boot my Windows XP it also said that no hard drive is located.

    I followed the upgrade recommended Dell so I do not know why it does not work.  I read that the SATA drives require additional drivers, but I'm sure that my old drive was already a SATA drive, so I don't understand why he is not recognized.

    Help, please.  Thank you.

    The 9300 has been performed in two versions - the vast majority were EIDE.  The last execution of production used SATA.  Yours is EIDE.

    Readers are physically the same size and made the same carrier - but does not connect the SATA version to the motherboard (check the back both discs and you'll see why).

    The EIDE version has a limit of 120G BIOS - it means not that you can not use this drive of 160 G, but the results can be unpredictable, sudden loss of all data.  Keep backups if you try a 160 - it is much safer to use a 120G.

    No, a 5400 all else equal will be slower than a 7200 - but you don't have a choice, because all manufacturers have stopped making 7200 RPM EIDE (PATA) computer laptop some time ago.

  • Question: Does have an Inspiron E1505 and want to know about the upgrade for Inspiron 1525

    Hi, I and Inspiron E1505 and I was wondering how much it would cost to upgrade to an Inspiron 1525 comparable.  The 1525 is replacement of the E1505 is not it?  My E1505 has Vista with a CPU T7200, 2GB of RAM, 120GB HD, built in WiFi G Intel, Mobility Radeon X 1400, upgraded Sound Blaster Audigy.

    I can't remember the price of precisley, but it was about $1,200.  As I said, I want to upgrade to an Inspiron 1525 comparable.  What kind of trade option does Dell give for something like that?  Thanks in advance!


  • Moving display after the upgrade of Inspiron 530 with Geforce 8600 GT

    Have no idea on how to solve this problem, I now connect my lcd directly on the graphics card (was invited to by the bios) after getting the latest updates and configure the colors, resolution and everything else, I noticed the sound off the screen display! what I mean is that the top, bottom and sides of my screen appears entirely not whole screen, its similar food half inch of the screen. In addition, the colors are little opaque and not so colorful.


  • What is the maximum Memroy for an Inspiron 580?

    I am confused about the maximum memory for the Inspiron 580.

    On the Dell website, it has that 8 GB is the maximum.

    When I run the Dell Support Center software, click on the tab of system details under the heading SYSTEM MEMORY, it indicates the maximum supported memory is 16,00 GB.

    What is the right answer?

    J. Gray and yes I did.  As I posted above.  Its been running 16 GB for about 4 months now.

    According to Panel... it shows an i5 CPU 650 @ 3.20 GHz with 16 GB of installed system, 15.8 GB usable.  64-bit operating system.  NOTE: the RAM is outside the EEC

    And Yes, it is a Dell Inspiron 580 (per plate).  In the event that it is lost above, I wrote on 29/12/2015 (so you have the price, PN and source):

    I just powered up with 16 GB in my Dell Inspiron 580.  It has 4 RAM slots now x 4 of them at $21 / each (on ebay):

    • 4 GB DDR3 PC3-12800 1600 MHz 4G MEMORY OFFICE 240-PIN Non - ECC RAM CL 11

    I was careful to cross reference, which would be and how fast it was.  These are faster they must do, but they were also the cost lowest.  The 'old' were DDR3-1333.  So these are the fastest (doubt that helps the machine go faster), DDR3-1600 (PC3-12800, alias).

    I have had this PC i5 for about 5 years now.  I had thought that it was getting old/obsolete, but when shopping is not not bad.  So, $80 brings me 6 GB to 16 GB.

  • The upgrade of an Inspiron 5348 Windows 10

    Hello, just over a year, we bought a 5348 Inspiron with Windows 8.1 down here in New Zealand. It was OK for a few months and one day I totally messed up because I decided to follow the instructions and update Windows - BIG MISTAKE. The computer was completely messed up. I got help from Dell (Asia-Pacific I guess) at the time, but ultimately confused with reinstalling Windows 8.1 using the Dell recovery program. Dell advice was to reinstall windows and update only once and never again (which seemed strange to me). Anyway, it has been fine since then (without updating).

    My question is about the update of Windows 10 - is this going to be a problem with the Inspiron 5348 which has not been updated in the month? I don't have the notice asking me to update Windows 10 that I've heard, maybe because I did not update since the big problem I've had months ago.

    So I don't forget to try to upgrade to Windows 10? Or would it really an improvement or 8.1 Windows which seems to be rather unstable?

    Cheers, Paul

    I watched videos of introduction 10 Windows and he looks pretty good / easy to use. I wonder what are the problems likely to use Windows 10 compared to 8.1 Windows

    Cheers, Paul

    I have no problem at all. I'm delighted with my upgrade to win 10. You should be as lucky as me, however, to get a perfect, almost experience judging by messages others have fact. If it's not perfect right from the start, could be that you are in trouble. Therefore, to make these images. Win 10 will have its own built-in back capacity, which works usually - but sometimes that fails too, I read. Create your own! Follow Dell article I posted update drivers both before & after the upgrade...

    How not to not upgrade Windows 10

    I went to read messages about it while the upgrade sat in Windows Update (or anywhere where that put it). I told you to wait - call back me later - fully intending to try, after having two images & a clone of 8.1 to win. When I got home, I was a little sick at heart, on the complaints I had read. I do not know now if I clicked accidentally something to start or he started alone - but after about 4 automatic restarts for maybe two hours - everything was fine. I'm thrilled!

    I've lost any ability or the file I had to 8.1 win, I see. Some screens of settings are hard to find, but who has always been so. Things are as quick as ever. Maybe McAfee ceased to update its definitions because of the upgrade. I uninstalled & put my trust in Defender & firewall Windows, which are impressive, especially the firewall. Some very painful events left the observer of events, but news are that someday I'm going to study. But less/nothing is having me worry more material than in Win 8.1, although concern was probably wrong. Event Viewer errors are often false. I have no problem in Win 10 that I did not win 8.1, which was not much. The two 'SFC/scannow' & DISM still declare no error.

    Win 10, we can stop is no longer always the critical updates to enter through Windows Update. So, I hope that your problem is over. You can prevent updates to driver, but it is better, when he didn't need to. I did not personally a.

    I am delighted with Win 10, generation 10240. I hope that's what you will receive, because, finally, I read a news - threshold 2 or Version 1511 - has been withdrawn. It is problematic. I'm going to only when offered through Windows Update, when I trust that bugs are fixed. I have a new series of images & a clone by hand, however.

  • "Dell Backup and Recovery" asking the upgrade with the inspiron 15 model

    Hello

    I'm new to this forum and also started to use the Dell laptop. I bought Dell Inspiron 15 (model 3521) 01-Jan-2014. I am trying to take backup of my laptop on a DVD. When I clicked on 'Backup and restore of Dell' app in app Manager. I try to click on backup system option 'Dell backup and recovery' section, its upgrade premium or enter key. Its not that allows to create backup DVDs.

    What may be the issue? Because when I bought it, seller said that his original one.

    It's part a scam from Dell.  I've got 5 Dell portable computers/computers / tables all have this software on it with a VERY limited useage then weekly or if I get a pop window op offering the upgrade at a special price which, in the end, is the same price as if you would have just bought or 'improved' (like Dell likes to call it) the program to a regular price which IS : 39.99.

    What I hate about businesses, in particular, the one that I spend a lot of money with it, is when they think they can put a quick access on me or in my case 5 times that I have 5 of these upgrade special offer windows popping up each week.

    You're better off getting programs like Goodsync which will back up your computer or synchronize your files on an external hard drive, and that you can use on all of your computers for only $29.99.  I use it on my servers and my offices.

    Otherwise good luck with Dell and their implementation to special day called 'offer' that is the price of retail, after all.  NOT COOL DELL ALL!

  • Said Dell Inspiron 7537 is tested on Windows 10 but the upgrade fails - black screen

    Hello all, Hello support,

    Dell Backup software and restore proposed to me that I have upgraded to Windows 10. I like this idea.

    I checked my ultrabook on the DELL Web site. Inspiron 7537 is tested (proudly said Dell) so I should be able to update my OS without flaw.

    I did 2 upgrade to Windows 10 attempts, both failed in the same way.

    It passes through several stages, but at some point, a black screen stuck and only power OFF button turns the laptop computer do something (disable). In the two attempts after 2 restarts, the installation process is back from my Windows 8.1 operating system

    Why DELL say it is tested and I can't upgrade - turns-does not work.

    I have not contacted the DELL forums on this subject (because the DELL technical support in my country told me it is Microsoft Business) If IT WAS NOT for THE FACT that DELL 'advertising' me Windows 10 and claims my laptop is ready to do the upgrade.

    Please help and explain.

    Thank you in advance.

  • Graphic updating the Dell Inspiron 580

    Hello world

    I own a Dell Inspiron 580 and want to update the graphics card, mainly for photoshop but also casual games (SWTOR).

    On the Dell site scouring for hours she was told that the AMD Radeon HD double 7750 1GBx16 PCIe HDMI is a card that is compatible with the Inspiron 580.

    http://www.VisionTek.com/7000-series/7750-Dual-HDMI.html

    In my excitement, I ordered the card immediately, but later by reading the specs, that is to say the power required for the HD 7750 is 350 Watt... and now I am aware that the Inspiron 580 has only a POWER 300 watt PSU.

    It will be possible to run this card safely with the stock power supply?

    I have contributed to the maximum my 8 GB system RAM and I also have a Sound Blaster X - Fi Titanium HD installed.

    Thank you for all you can give me information or advice.

    Hi Ninjasaan,

    Dell has not tested with the AMD Radeon HD 7750 system. You can install the graphics card and it should work fine. However, as you know that the power required by the system of the card is more than the power supply provided with the system, you may need to replace the power supply. The minimum power required by the card system is 400 watts.

    You can replace the power supply of the system with a stock THAT same size PSU and it should work.

    For repair, you can see the link: http://bit.ly/VphDmP.

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

  • Ethernet/Wifi keeps falling since the upgrade to windows 10 on Inspiron 7537

    After about 3 attempts to upgrade to windows 10 8.1 I clicked inadvertently this prompt annoying to try again, and finished the upgrade this time.

    Nothing wrong with it except the Wifi and ethernet keep falling. If I do repair troubleshooting or deactivate/activate my ethernet card, then it works again for a few minutes before falling again.

    I've installed every update that is recommended by the Dell Web site, but it has not changed. I have the Inspiron 7537

    Someone recommended measures to fix this can?

    The above didn't solve it for me. Someone else had the same problem

  • Problems encountered during the upgradation of windows7 for windows8 in my laptop Dell Inspiron 5520.

    I'm halfway to the upgradation of windows7 for windows8 in my laptop Dell Inspiron 5520. I wonder to uninstall software for USB 3.0, Dell stage, Bluetooth, ports etc. of windows7, citing compatibility problems. How do I proceed? Similar software will be installed during the process once I have finished installing windows8? Because now, my internet connection is through the USB data card. Please advice of emergency

    What I suggest you do is download Windows 8 and create a bootable on a Flash DRIVE or DVD you can do an offline installation. Although the wizard upgrade of Windows 8 is the first download before to actually copy the files.

    You can uninstall the proposed components that affect the download installation files.

  • I can't put my Dell Inspiron 5423 back to the factory setting after the upgrade to Windows 8.1

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    I upgraded my laptop Windows 8.1 yesterday and he had some compatibility problems with some applications. I want to restore it before the upgrade but cannot, then I run the Dell backup / recovery of value factory setting, but has no success (the interface at startup is also difference previous execution of recovery).

    I tried to run the startup recovery, but pressing F8 can not directly at the interface of recovery.

    Could you please say how to restore my laptop? I need to run my old application for my works.

    Thank you best regards &,.

    LM Hoang.

    You cannot use the factory recovery partition once you have upgraded to a new version of Windows (including Windows 8.0 Windows 8.1).

    Dell ship no reinstallation DVD with systems and Microsoft do not provide a .iso download for Windows 8.0 or 8.1 Windows for OEM installations.

    If you have not completed the USB bootable Dell backup and restoration in advance before installing Windows 8.1 then your only option may be to install the real installation media, i.e. a reinstallation DVD or USB.

    If you live in the United States, you can fill the form here: https://www.dell.com/support/diagnostics/us/en/19/nondiagnostichome?dgc=SM&cid=266887&lid=4921161
