Vostro 260 memory
I have a Vostro 260, 4 years and no upgrade internal. Microsoft Flight Sim 2004 will not operate with the installed Microsoft Windows 10 system, (hate).
I was advised to add more memory. Currently 2 GB of DDR3 memory.
Question is, can I add more memory, how much, to make this system work properly?
I'm not computer savvy, so the question.
I can be reached just in

Thanks for any help.
You can have 8 GB of RAM and an SSD hard drive:

Microsoft Sim 2004 has been designed for Windows XP, released in 2001, and may not work for a modern OS, such as Windows 10 released in 2015.

Vostro 260 - BIOS update A08 A10 impossible
Yesterday I downloaded BIOS A10 for a Vostro 260, but it has this error message when I start the update:
What's not here?
Hi all
Here is the update file.

Dell Inspiron 620/Vostro 260 NO Bios for AHCI
Dell Inspiron 620/Vostro 260 NO Bios for AHCI
Interestingly, I couldn't even update the bios without the INTEL drivers.
Check in the Device Manager, the machine uses the ATA drivers not AHCI drivers
AND will not install the INTEL RST drivers.
Why is this?
I tried to upgrade to the version of the Bios A04, but this made no difference.
I did some research and discovered that the chipset in this system, the H61, simply does not support AHCI or RAID. There is no way to activate for a reason. :(
Wish I had known this. The value of this system really went down the tube if you intend to launch an SSD in there.

Driver Windows XP for Vostro 260
Hi all
I'm fighting for a network of windows XP on Vostro 260 driver
I can't imagine there are not one, but I loaded a driver from Realtek, containing a driver for the reference found in the identification of the interface (DEV_8168 & SUBSYS_04EE1028 & REV_06).
I installed, but the interface does not start. What should do?
Thank you
Ch. Waterkeyn
Hi all
The only factor that contains the exact reference DEV_8168 & SUBSYS_04EE1028 & REV_06 are on the realtek site: www.realtek.com.tw/.../downloadsView.aspx
where we can find the version 5.806 driver of the network interface on VOSTRO260
I thought that it wasn't working, but I do probably not uninstall correctly previous drafts.
So don't forget to uninstall completely any previous driver for the interface (I guess that's always the case, but I'm not very used to the installation of the driver)
Hope that this will eventually help someone...
Kind regards
Christian Waterkeyn

The installed memory is 4 GB. I've upgraded to 8 GB, but want more. I get conflicting info on the Dell site. In some places, it is said that the Max is 8 GB. I also learned that on the phone. Even at Best Buy. However, when I go to Support/memory upgrades, it is said that the maximum memory is 16 GB. Is it possible to switch to 16?

Very rarely Dell is updating the specifications of their computers at the end of LIFE
Crucial specifies 16 gb [2x8gb DDR3 modules].
http://www.crucial.com/USA/en/compatible-upgrade-for/Dell/Vostro-270-Mini-Tower
Personally, I had no problem using the memory Crucial recommendation because their upgrades are guaranteed compatible.

Vostro 3300 memory upgrade problems
Two Vostro 3300 comes with 4 GB (2x2gb v1.5).
Attempt to upgrade to 8 GB, so far without success.
Most recent Bios A12Selector memory from crucial.com claims 4 GB DDR3 - 12800 CL11 1.35v
I tried three products G-Skill and Samsung, with identical results:
(1) F3-1600C9D-8GBSL G-Skill (PC3-12800, CL9, 1.35v)
(2) G-Skill F3-12800CL9D-8GBSQ (PC3-12800, CL9, 1.5V)
(3) Samsung 4 GB 1Rx8 PC3L 12800 S-11-13-B4
No start normally, either as a single device, or in combination with existing memory (at the same voltage). All devices are recognized in the BIOS (as in 1066 MHz). After the splash screen of the BIOS, attempts to result in video starting Windows of interlocked block repeated altered in system and model freezes.
F5 MASTS fails with graphics corrupted after several minutes. System is not responding.
Memtest 86 + fails almost immediately (permanent or not) with a splash of black character cellsThese characteristics seem to be compatible, but do not work.
Suggestions of compatibility (ideally based on real experience) would be appreciated.The problem is simply that the Vostro 3300 (and probably 3400) require low-density parts, and all samples tested were pieces of high density.
The distinction of high-density/low-density is not explicitly stated in any literature I can find.
For critical parts at least, the two latest les deux derniers chiffres figures product code indicates the density.
For example, CT51264BF160BJ is a high density of part (BJ ends), while CT51264BF160B is a part of low density (ends in B). It seems that G-Skill and many others can use parts of high densities.

Dell Wireless 1502 (802.11 b/g/n) half mini-map WLAN
Tried to remove this map on a new Dell Vostro 260 (there where he didn't need) and put it in a Dell Optiplex 360 with Windows 7 x 64. When you try to install the driver the setup.exe gives the message: "Setup cannot run on this platform." I tried to check I select the Win7 x 64 option to download but still no luck. The file info is Driver Atheros 26/05/2011 - Version 9.1.0.328, A01.
Maybe is this not compatible with older hardware Core 2 Duo card and require an i3 + chip?
Even if your original post is a year old... I had the same problem. I downloaded the x 64 driver package 9.1.0.328, A01 win7 and it failed with the same problem. (The strange thing is that I have an another Inspiron 620 running win7 x 64 and the driver installed, a native of Dell, is the 9.1.0.328 version?) So, I tried the other available win7 x 64 package, 9.2.0.517, A02. Yet once, didn't with the same "the installer cannot run on this platform." I decided to try and manually install the driver instead of using the installation program. Pass - Manager Control Panel/hardware and sound / control unit and made a right click on this card in 'network adapters' click on "update driver software," go in the appropriate directory on the C: which was created from the extraction of the package, and then click 'ok '. I could get my dell 1502 works this way. I deleted the complete directory which was created from package 9.1.0.328. I found myself with worm 9.2.0.517... only because it was the second package that I've extracted. I assumed that 9.1.0.328 would have probably worked this way too much.

I have 2 computers in my church. Yesterday I arrives and the two or saying my Windows 7 Pro is not valid. To perform the validation. But come back as invalid. One is nearly four years old Dell, the other about 2 1/2 HP. Both have valid windows and never gave me any problems. Looked in the forum, and one of the things they said to run this program was. I did on the Dell. Here are the results. How can I fix these pop ups. I can't find my information on the Dell. I have it I'm thinking on the latest HP. But the two that began at the same time.
