• Pls help me to upgrade memory of 512 MB for Dimension 2400

  I used the Dell Profiler information and bought a memory card of 1 GB of Dell Online for my Dimension 2400.  Now, I'm ready to install, but the technical specifications. information on the Dimension 2400 implies it will be inconsistent.  Now, I think I should have bought a 512 MB card and installed instead for a total of two cards of RAM 512 each.  Now that I have the 1 GB, could I install and remove the 512 standard which came installed?  Install the 1 GB in addition to the stock 512 MB card?  TY in advance.

  
  

• For Dimension 2400 RAM upgrade

  I have a Dimension 2400, P4 2.8 ghz with 256 MB of RAM that appears on the card 256 MB 333 MHZ DDR MEMORY (1 X 256) NONECC technical, it is not enough, so I plan on getting 2 x 512. I checked with critical and they are listing 2 different types of 512 RAM - 333 mhz (PC2700) and 400 mhz (PC3200). I was wondering if buying 400 mhz RAM would make a difference in performance or if 400 mhz is even compatible?

  Thank you!

  
  

• Dimension 2400 memory upgrade now, I have no monitor?

  Hello everyone and thank you for being here to help. My son has a Dimension 2400 w / 34GB of hard disk, which is currently at the maximum. It has 384 MB of RAM. 128 in DIMM1 and DIMM2 in 256. I went to BB today and bought a new stick of 512 MB PNY that I swapped the 128 for. Everything seemed to go well. A few hours later when my son went to use the PC the monitors stand by orange light was on and no picture. The first press there is no answer. A second try the monitor off, when I turned it back on it went green for a moment and then clicked on return to orange, still no picture.

  I double checked all the connections and everything seems to be okay. When I removed the cable from the monitor, I heard some no clicks from the monitor, always good, no picture. I turned off the pc and reboot, still nothing. However the pc would not then shut down. I then turned off through the throttle, but when I repowered it, the pc came back. Still could not turn off so I unplugged it for now. Any thoughts would be GREATLY appreciated!

  Thank you!

  
  

• Dimension 2400 CPU

  I damaged one of the pins on my Pentium processor in my Dimension 2400 trying to remove it & the heat sink (long story).  So can I upgrade the processor?  Registering online for my system says:

  Pentium 4 Prescott DT Pentium 4 David mill

  So I don't know exactly what all this means, but it has a heat sink aluminum great & no fan above.

  Should what CPU I replace with that will fit the power outlet?  I have to remove the radiator and use it again and if so, how?

  Thank you!

• 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

• 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 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.

  https://www.Google.com/#q=NETGEAR+Wireless+n+dual+band+WNDA3100+USB+XP+installation+guide+and+software

  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.

  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.
