Using old Dell on a new '' surround speakers

I just bought a new Dell XPS 8500 and planned to use my old Dell surround speakers I bought with my older Dell XPS in 2005.  As one might suspect him, the color coding is not to help me.  I need advice on how to plug them in.  My old speakers have three strings, color GRAY, BLACK & YELLOW.  My new XPS has six input jacks audio in the back in two rows of three.  The colors on the catches are GRAY, BLACK, ORANGE and RED, GREEN, BLUE.  What should I do?

Thank you

Lloyd

Since no one answered my questiom, I tried to connect my old ADA995 Dell speakers (Altec Lansing) for my Dell XPS 630i system. Everything seems to work. Here are the links I used:

The ADA995 has 3 entrances.

1. Center & subwoofer (yellow)

2. before left & right channel (green)

3 channel left & right rear (black)

The XPS360i has these outputs.

1 surround his (black) connector

2, taken headphone/line-out (green)

3 side surround connector (Silver)

4. Center connector subwoofer/LFE (orange)

The connections I used were Yelllow > Orange, black > green and green > Silver.

As far as I know, six audio ports on the XPS 8500 have the same color code.

  • PCI-MXI-2 using old drivers on the new OS

    I have a card PCI-MXI-2, which is currently in a Windows Xp computer.

    The windows xp-based computer uses the driver NOR-VXI 2.1.1 (Windows 9 x/NT/2000).

    This configuration works. I would now like to move to Windows 7.

    The card is connected by VXI a VME-MXI-2 card, which is configured with three cards of measure to an outside company.

    Because of the material that I use, I think I should keep the orriginal driver to make it work. I was not successful with the drivers OR newer.

    Anyone has any advice on the use of aged drivers OR newer operating systems?

    I didn't have much luck with this approach so far.

    Update:

    -J' deleted all software from national instruments

    -J' installed the old drivers on Windows 7 in compatibility mode (or vxi components shared VISA 1.6 2.1.1, components shared IVI 2.2.1)

    -J' made sure that all of the software is the same version as on the old machine

    -J' configured then the boards with T & M Manager

    Success. Everything works now.  It is a very valuable approach for those who use old hardware that cannot handle the new drivers.

  • using old programs on the new computer

  • 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.

  • Loading iTunes library of old, defunct macbook to new macbook using backups Time Machine

    Hello. How can I get iTunes library from my old Macbook loaded on my new Macbook using the backup Time Machine that exists from the old machine. The new mac is connected to the time machine, I can open Time machine, see the backups, but get nowhere when you attempt to load the library in iTunes on my new Macbook. I see the file .itl from the old machine to backups... where can I go from here?

    The iTunes library on the new machine is empty, so save is not a matter of concern.

    ABSG dear,

    Welcome to the MSFT support community.

    Try to start your system in safe mode and disable/uninstall the game for now. If the uninstallation of this game is everything to normal, you will need to install it again. If this is not the case, try another solution.

    Create a new user profile and delete the two accounts as there is a high risk user accounts has been corrupted. Heads up here learn more on how you can fix a damaged user profile and create a new:

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Neil,

    Dell Dimension 9150 supports a surround sound 7.1 via its embedded audio codec. He must connect the green plug to the green port, black pine in the black port and yellow pine from the speaker to the yellow port.

    You will need to select 5.1 speakers in the Creative Media Audio Software and check the synchronization with the control panel option. The volume of each speaker in the Surround Mixer.
