Upgrade of dimension 9100

I wonder why Dell does not support an upgrade to the Windows XP operating system to Windows 7-32 bit on

Dimension 9100 desktop computer.

I need a technical answer about chipsets, the hardware and the drivers who wouldn't stand for Windows 7.

Dell will not ANY longer 3 year old computer support, because it is considered to be obsolete. BIOS and driver updates are NOT written by Dell, but buy the hardware vendor. These are usually modified by applications for Dell, but still by the provider. You know the D9100 will be updated correctly and will work perfectly, then, what is the problem? If there is a driver problem, go to the site and looking for a update of this material. The 9100 updated for Windows 7 (and beyond) with no real problem. For the video driver, look for an update to the driver. I have the GPU of Nvidia 6800, which runs on all versions of Winows using supplied Nvidia drivers; even to win 10, which MS said would not be updated because of the video driver. Win 10 updated and had the generic video driver of MS, which easily updated a Nvidia compatible driver; in fact, a driver Vista/Win 7.

More updates add drivers usable for most of the equipment if the original driver is incompatible.

You should be able to find a Radion driver that will work.

Regarding the disk activity, more updates OS have this problem because the OS itself becomes organised. Initially, the usual problem is sort of the hard drive for the search function. This is easily defeated in Computer Services.

  • USB keyboard stops being Windows XP reinstall on Dimension 9100!

    I searched this forum for a solution and the best I found is similar, but not exact problems. To make it easier to understand, here is what I have and what I've done so far:

    The computer is a Dell Dimension 9100 w / Windows XP Home Edition. I have 'no' has a PS/2 port. The keyboard and mouse are USB. There 'no' to a floppy drive, only a 80 GB HD, CD ROM & CD Burner. I wanted to wipe the drive and reinstall Windows XP Home Edition. I did the natural thing and put on the Windows CD that gave a choice of reinstalling Windows, but when I clicked it, the message said that "there is a newer version of Windows XP on the computer". The continue button is grayed out. After much frustration, I decided to manully wipe the drive, so I used Active Boot erase disc. Now when I boot from the CD ROM with the CD of Windows XP in there, load files and it gets to the screen that says "press enter = continue R = repair, & F3 = exit". Straight? No, at this time there the keyboard commands do not work so you can't do anything. Remember, "no" PS2 port so I can not put a real keyboard inside. "" Thanks Dell! I tried this sequence with the keyboard plugged into every USB port on the PC. No luck with any of them. Does the Dell hell? Can someone help me get back Windows on the stupid computer?

    If your 9100 has a PCIe - x 1 free slot, it should work.

  • Compatibility of dimension 9100

    I just had my SECOND die of +-RW dvd on me today since the purchase of this size two years ago. Guarantee is toast so I was wondering what reputable +-RW DVD burners are available for purchase on the dell.com site that are compatible with the Dimension 9100.

    Thank you!


  • Upgrade of dimension 5000 with 1 GB of video

    I have an old Dimension 5000 here which was a Euro version 5100/5150/E510... series date back to the time. It still does a life more decent job running Windows 10 for anything games, so internet, office light etc...

    Here's the question: it was once upgraded with a 512 MB GeForce MSI slot PCI-E x 16 without problem. Trying to run a 1 GB card but turns out to be a problem.  Tested both until this new Geforce GT 710 - a passive MSI and a PNY with cooler fan - would cause the machine to Rev up the fan on the CPU for a few seconds before posting the "alert!" PCI Express card works in X 1 mode"message when starting. After hitting the F1, everything is normal. They are still rising 'usable memory' under Windows/System, which was one of the goals of this upgrade.

    Re-seating cards several times into the slot has not made a difference. The machine has the latest BIOS v07 and has been improved with a peak of 350W/400W PSU.

    The theories here? I do not understand why there is a compatibility issue with the 1 GB cards.  I noticed minor differences in the provisions of the PIN between the 3 cards, but they are all designed for any compatible mobo PCI-E with a x 16 slot.

    TIA

    Several versions XFX have heat sinks that are TOO LONG and TOO FAT to physically enter the case.

    Asus units adapt to all dells except USFF which has no slots.

  • Dell dimension 9100 starts do not

  • CPU upgrade Dell dimension 9200 core 2 duo 2.4 Ghz processor

    I was wondering if someone could help me.  I know that it is not supported by dell, but I want to upgrade my processor at the maximum speed supported by my Dimension 9200... I currently have a 2.4 Ghz cpu and bought an E8500 3.16 Ghz, which is NOT compatible... I was wondering if I could go with an E7300 2.66, I I think the problem is with the speed of the bus--the E6600 and E7300 are the two 1066 Mhz but the E8500 and E8600 1333 Mhz.

    Can anyone confirm that the E7300 2.66 / 1066 Mhz is compatible...?  Thank you.

    Steinomite

    OK so just to confirm that I will buy the CPU... I can get a core 2 duo for a core 2 Quad... as long as I get a Q6700 2.66 GHz... correct? for a Dimension 9200... Thank you.

    Yes, the XPS 410/9200 will take up to Q6700, processors FSB 1066.

  • Upgrade my Dimension E520 CPU

    Has anyone upgraded their E520 (G965 Express Chipset) with a Q6600 which is using it now and it performs as it assumes too much. I read, where they said it works but I have not read where they use it now after they upgraded. I will go to E6600 but would like better if I could switch to Q6600 and it works well! Thank you!

  • upgrade of dimension 2400 heatsink

    No one knows what other heat sink or cooler I use in my dell dimension 2400 I can't seem to find another at all my old work well and help my computer on sleeves

    I have installed a standard spare heater Socket 478 in my 2350, similar to the 2400, but lost BIOS fan control and had to install a fan controller. I have tried both a Rosewill and a Zalman 7000 ALCU.

    If you're wondering, the 2400 is standard mATX case, apart from the audio before, wiring is compatible with the standard headers. Regarding the audio before, he has the standard wires and can be rewired for an ordinary 2 x 5 socket Molex, which I did with a Dimension 3000 (same chassis).

    Meanwhile, the 2400 has been designed to work with the heatsink you have, then why is it overheating? Perhaps the bracket is broken and the radiator is not firmly attached to the CPU? If you need a new slice, standard Socket 478 units could operate; I replaced the broken leg in my 2350 with a new generic one from eBay.

  • Help!  How to upgrade two dimension collection ArrayCollection?

    Hello

    I'm having a problem of understanding of documentation on populating a DataGrid of two dimension collection ArrayCollection. My situation is that I have a DataGrid with a bunch of information, currently stored in a two-dimensional array (digital in the first dimension and by field name in the second dimension). I also have a bunch of data streaming from an XMLSocket, which, when it happens, is analyzed, resulting in one of the fields of the table in need of update. I can do very well with the table directly, but I can't try to understand how use the ArrayCollection collection features to cross this two-dimensional structure - setItemAt() does not seem suited for this purpose? I need to trigger the effects on the relevant cell that has been updated, when I round coding, so I will try to use some structure that handles update events and others for me automatically, such as the ArrayCollection collection.

    I do not know is still the best technique to use, and the intermediate level (the ArrayCollection collection and others) could be changed completely, so if you can suggest (and illustrate, if she is as confused as this!) a better method, I would be grateful.

    Thank you

    David

    Ah.

    You must look for the item in the collection ArrayCollection. This is usually done with a loop in the collection. When you have found the item you would:

    Item.Quantity = new quantity;
    dp.itemUpdated (item);

    You must call the method of collection itemUpdated to make the signal Collection all interested parties (for example, the DataGrid bound to her) she's changed.

    A Collection can also views and ViewCursors that might be useful to have a lot of data.

    But I read everywhere and I saw a few comments from people on how Dell uses not normal size of power supply, I have a problem installing this power supply? In addition, this video card would be great to fit in all this?

  • is could someone please advise me what graphics card would be compatible to upgrade a dimension 4600 in the price range of 50-100 books


    Hi William111,

    This thread includes a long list of possible improvements to video card. Keep in mind that your 4600 requires the very old type AGP video card, which are not easy to find. In fact, it would be better to buy a used, more recent system that will probably surpass your 4600.
