• Dell Dimension 4700 upgrade tips Help!

  Hello Dell Community, I currently have a Dell Dimension 4700 and hoped to upgrade my computer to a computer game, with a budget of around $100-200.

  I wonder as to the game going, that upgrades would produce the biggest change and progress in the game? I'm hoping to improve up to 2 GB of Ram and add a video card, but don't know if it is the best choice to go.

  I have studied this subject and found several posts in the forums, but they were all overwhelmed and I hope to get some knowledge as well as recent graphics cards or Ram that can improve my FPS in game and all around my budget. Thank you.

  Sorry, but there are very few, you can upgrade on a child of seven years 'obsolete' 4700, to make a system of 'game '.

  Better to put the money upgrade, to buying new desktop PC.

• Dell Dimension 4700 solid Amber Light but now nothing

  A few months ago my Dell Dimension 4700 does not, he just had a solid clear amber.  So I read on the forum and I replaced the memory and the computer booted.  It lasted for about 6 weeks, and then I got the amber light again.  So I moved the memory and used an eraser to remove static.  Still had a yellow light.  Then a few days ago I had no amber lights - nothing.  So I bought a pwer supply and installed today and it still does not work!  Any suggestions?

  Thanks a lot for your helo!  I bought a power supply, but was still the question, so I bought a motherboard and my computer is a race!   Thanks again!

• Upgrade memory Dell Dimension 9150

  Hello

  I'm looking to upgrade memory RAM on my Dell Dimension 9150 Dual Core (DXP051) clocked at 2.8 GHZ with 1 GB of ram. Motherboard is Dell 0YC523. IGB memory currently.

  Watching the RAM is OCZ Enhanced latency Platinum XTC Edition revision 2 with speed 800 Mhz - CL4 (4-4-4-15) latency. 2 GB

  OCZ recommendation is to increase the volatge of ram to 2.1V on the BIOS but I don't think that this is possible on the Dell motherboard.

  Previousposts research, someone also asked a similar question but for an XPS 720 PC.

  The solution suggested something about SLI or EPP ready... I'm not sure what it means. This means that the RAM must be SLI or EPP ready to be compatible with the motherboard of Dimension I or the mothersboard must be ready for use of these modules of memory SLIp/PPE? Can I use this module and if so, how do I change the voltage or the motherboard will adjust it automatically?

  If not, can I get some other RAM?

  Thanks in advance.

• Failures of Dell Dimension 4700

  Hello! This is my first post. I came here for support on one of my older Dell systems today, my only first. (I did recently acquired another). It was my first computer, a helping hand me down from my parents back in 2011. He never ran well. I blamed it on a lot of things to the wire of time, starting with the aging of processor Pentium 4, bad caps on the motherboard to hard drive errors. USB works, extremely slow performance, stops and weird/sali post codes at the start are all symptoms. Once I hit him (not very hard) once out of frustration and she completely restarted. Then, it worked fine for months. This weekend, however, I was reached behind the unit to plug in a USB key (the front USBs long quit date, as I mentioned above) and it stops without any sign of restart. I have tried unplugging for a while, and then reconnect (it worked in the past, it has happened before), but it did not help. I checked on the inside, and the Green LED on the motherboard was off. Then, I started to suspect the PSU. A paper clip test confirmed my suspicions... and I could see the capacitors that have failed inside during the inspection below. I tested the power supply that failed but in my other 4700, and it failed. I borrowed the PSU work from this computer and put it in one with faulty POWER, but instead of starting block flashes an orange light by the power button. The power failure took the motherboard with it: (?) Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

• Upgrade CPU Dell Dimension 9150

  Hello!

  I have a Dell Dimension 9150 and it has a Pentium D 2.8 Ghz processor.

  Dell.com support lists: processor, 80547, PENTIUM D SMITHFIELD for workstations..., 820 SKT - T, male

  What is the highest and/or upgrade best remaining for the Pentium D processors?

  Where are some of the best places to shop in a relatively straight price besides eBay?

  I read so many messages but still confused.

  Discovered that she can be Pentium D 840, 3.2GGhz, but has noticed that some people say that there is more available as the Pentium D 930, 950 or 945 processor.

  Intel website is very confusing because it does not necessarily list the most valuable info and there are variations within each class of processor.

  I intend to keep (hopefully!) the computer for another 1-3 years (?), have upgraded from storage for 2 hard drives of 1 TB, maxed out 4G memory (although Windows XP won't recognise that the 3.5 G) and has even with graphics card, Radeon 256, X 600 MRMGA 370W PSU +.

  I would like to upgrade processor for video work that I perform.

  Did not notice a fan of the sink on top of processor but check! Will I need one? Thermal glue specific for help?

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you!

  MrMojo1

  You should be able to switch to a Pentium D 960 3.6 GHz

  It is a passive radiator and the fan inside the fairing.

  As you intend to reuse the heat sink, you must plan on his basic cleaning and reapplying thermal paste to the processor.

  Instructions for cleaning and application of thermal paste, are HERE.

  You only need a small tube of thermal paste, it can be purchased from a computer store.

• Upgrade ram Dell Inspiron 7559

  Hi all, I recently received a Dell Inspiron 7559. It came with a 8 GB Skhynix "hmt41gs6bfr8a-pb No 1506 aa" stick of RAM. I want to upgrade to 16 GB. I thought that I had bought the same model of 8 GB of RAM on ebay, but I have a 8 GB Skhynix "hmt41gs6bfr8a-pb na aa 1511. They are two completely different models because of their different nomenclature? Can I still use it to upgrade my ram? Thank you

  I get similar Inspiron 15 7559, and yes the RAM should work as long, it's a real play "DDR3L 1600 (PC3L 12800)" memories. "

  If you're unsure, this specific memory of WindowCentral video I found on Youtube on the extra addition of 8 GB of RAM.

• Upgrade a Dell Dimension 9200 360 GB Raid to 2 TB hard drive

  Hello

  I have tried this modernization and taken on drives of 160 GB 1 and put in disk 2 TB and started the PC and it did not work I tried 2 different locations.

  Can someone help me by telling me what I have to do

  to install disk 2 TB on my Vista PC running.

  I need to install my dell Vista-CD/CD?

  your help will be greatly appreciated

  Assuming you have RAID 0, RAID was probably set up to be the bootable hard drive.  If you delete one of the disks, your RAID will be completely disabled and the computer will not start.  The Dimension 9200 has six SATA ports, two upward by themselves and four other together towards the middle of the main map.  When one of these machines has been ordered with RAID Dell normally placed disks RAID on the third SATA ports and fourth, leaving the first two either vacuum or place the DVD/CD drive on the second of the two ports that reach by themselves next to the power supply.  You should be able to add your Board of 2 TB in two ways; Place it in one of the two ports next to food, or use one of the either the port of fifth or sixth sitting by the RAID.

  Once you have the new drive installed mechanically, restart the computer and use F2 during the self-test to reach the configuration of the system.  This page shows the BIOS how you want the computer to deal with its various devices.  Go to the screen that shows all your SATA devices and make sure that the port with your new hard drive is turned on.  If you skip this step the computer ignores your new drive.  Once you have done this and left the installation of the system, you will need to find the disk on your computer Manager so that you can initialize, partition and format the new drive.  You must configure a partition, even if you want to use the entire disk as one partition before you can format.

  A word of caution: computers some Dell's have some difficulties to accept a hard drive placed on a track numbered higher than the DVD/CD drive.  If you use the ports by the RAID drives and find you have problems using the new hard disk, you will need to plug it into the port of the first or second, depending on which is not used by the DVD/CD drive.  The RAID drives are not normally affected by this problem because they are managed by the ROM of RAID Intel and the computer does not see them as a SATA hard drive.

• Computers Dell dimension 4700

  When I start my computer, it turns and stops when the Dell logo appears whit the bios version and then the disk hard led by turns off and the power led the rest fan.  without starting windows, I removed the batery and the power for 24 hours. And still does not start what I can do.

  PD: Bios indicator stops at 10% the HHD turns off

  RAM and hard drive or is bad.

  Get out all the ram and put 1 piece at a time and or disconnect power to the hard drive and turn on.

  Post it with hard drive error or did not post it at all.

  The age of the system means that the drive is probably dead.

  There is no sweet miracle for physical hardware failure.
