What system to upgrade to?

I want to speed up my Dell Inspiron 1545 so I upgraded the ram to 4 GB and Im going to completely wipe my computor and install a new 64 bit OS.

What I want to know is, what should I do and which work best and keep my computor running OS quickly?
Thank you
Josh

Hello

It's a personal choice, what operating system, Windows 7 or Windows 8, you buy.

You will need to use Gogle or the Microsoft.com Web site to see if their abilities are suitable to you or not.

But before you buy anything:

Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer (Dell) Web site and see if Windows 7 or Windows 8 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

If this is not available, Windows 7 or Windows 8 does not work for you.

http://www.Dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/product/Inspiron-1545

The same will apply for Windows 8

Click on this link of Dell OS.

They have Windows 7 drivers, but NOT Windows 8 drivers available.

And follow these steps:

Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

  • What is the best operating system to upgrade from Vista? Should I buy Windows 7, 8 or 8.1?

    I have Vista 32 bit Home Premium.It does not support Windows Mail.Which is the best operating system to upgrade from Vista? Should I buy Windows 7, 8 or 8.1? I do not have a touch screen system, my system is five years old.

    Original title: upgrade

    Hello WilliamPopat,

    If you want to buy an another operating system, you would do better to buy the latest version, i.e., Windows 8.1 it doesn't matter that you don't have a touch screen like Windows 8.1 will work just as well on a desktop PC / laptop normal.

    However, before rushing and buying a copy of Windows 8.1, I suggest that you look at this link http://www.eightforums.com/tutorials/11885-windows-8-upgrade-assistant-download-run.html the link above shows Windows 8 Upgrade Wizard you can download (free) and allows you to check that your PC is compatible with the latest version of Windows.

    According to me, one of my office machines is around 5 or 6 years and Windows 8/8.1 works fine on it.  However, it is best to check your own machine with the wizard upgrade just in case.

  • What systems the Pros use for the first, After Effects and SpeedGrade?

    I bought the complete creative cloud in the hope of a career for me in editing audio/visual. The problem is my system doesn't seem to be able to manage the software, especially when changing back and forth between the three programs mentioned above. In addition, my first project cannot export correctly. In addition, throughout its development the offbeat bad system. And that's after following all of the recommendations of preferences available under tutorials Adobe and elsewhere on the Web.

    Here is my system:

    SYX-P67A-C43: Intel Core i7 2600 (a unit of 8 strands) to 3.4 GHz with 8 GB of RAM (which will be soon 16) with a NVidia GTX 550 card, 1Gig of RAM.

    As you can see, it's well beyond what Adobe claims to be the minimum requirements. It is obviously NOT the case.

    What systems the Pros use (like the guys in the tutorials) for the first, After Effects and SpeedGrade? Give me accurate machines with all the specs so I can a price upward.

    Right now X 99 with DDR4 gives best performance for media applications of particular content with GPU acceleration. I suggest an I7 5960 X, 32 GB of DDR4 2666, 980GTX video card and Asus X 99 board with storage depends on the media. Far, who will perform the 2600 is old of 2 generations at this stage, which is only a Quad core with HT. The same X 99 tips can also manage the Xeons V3 if you upgrade the processor in the future for a larger load in real-time.

  • What should I upgrade to be able to change the 10 cameras at the same time?

    I'm doing a video for live events and I must be able to modify the 10 cameras at a time.

    My system I've set up 2 years ago has a 3.4 ghz Ivy bridge i7, 32 GB of ram and a 2 GB video card. When I do multi camera changes in adobe first, I can only do 3 or 4 at a time with fluidity, using the camera multi monitor, but when I try 5 or more, it does not really play. The audio plays fine, but the video is just a frame every second couple.

    I tried mounting on an internal hard drive WD black, which is 7 200 rpm, but I found that I get the same results on a WD my book edition (which is a hard drive WD Green running to 5 400 rpm) via USB 3.0.

    What should I upgrade to be able to play all 10 cameras at the same time? A high-end video card? Which one? Do I need an esata raid configuration? Is what I ask to do even possible or not first even stand that?

    Thank you!

    What version of first? The GPU acceleration is activated? You may need to apply a 'hack' at first, so that it actually uses the GTX 560 for the Mercury engine.

    Runs in 'Software only' mode, navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Pro and search the text file called "cuda_supported_cards.txt".

    Rename or delete this file - without this list of cards "approved," to look at first will use ANY card that meets the minimum criteria.

    I do not use the Multicam feature myself, but as an experiment, I piled about 20 layers of AVCHD, using multiple PIPS on the entire screen, and he plays them back well. The GPU acceleration will help no doubt if that is not currently enabled

  • Construction of a system of upgrade discs

    The hard drive on my system is broken and I am trying to rebuild the system from scratch with a new hard drive. My original system was with Vista OEM (with no disk Vista) and then I bought a Windows 7 upgrade disk.

    I'm trying to put Windows 7 on the new disc, using the upgrade disks to make a complete new installation (which is an option at startup).  However when I get to the activation step and put in the product key of Windows 7 since the upgrade it says its not valid.  Then

    1. is the invalid key because I do a new install instead of upgrade (for example if I could do a fresh install of Vista and then upgrade again that would work) or is it likely to be another problem

    2. any other ideas!

    Unfortunately I don't have a system to upgrade system recovery disc either.

    Thank you very much

    Stephen

    Thank you very much help for all the world.  The solution I finally used is described in http://winsupersite.com/article/windows-7/clean-install-windows-7-with-upgrade-media-128512

    I used the method of double installation, i.e.

    -When you ask the product key, just ignore it (I didn't realize that you could do this when I posted the question).  You get a complete installation with a grace period.

    -Reinstall again with the message that you do an upgrade, and this time the upgrade product key wroks.

  • What system performs the best with Adobe CC

    I meet a lot of bugs running the latest version of Adobe CC on a new 15 "macbook pro under OS X 10.11.3

    This is starting to affect my workflow (and mental health!)

    Does anyone have suggestions for what systems (mac or pc) are currently better compatible with the latest version of Adobe CC? I really need the apps to function effectively. Ideally, I would like to be able to use a portable device.

    Also, does anyone know Adobe CC version, I need to return to full compatibility with mac OS X 10.11.3?

    It's a non issue. All Adobe applications are "compatible" in a technical sense abstract, it's just that the current releases of CC are full of bugs. You will solve nothing by swinging to another platform, a different material or anything that you want. And sadly enough, going back to the CC 2014 or even more can not solve anything, either, because the sad truth is simply that Apple cares about backward compatibility. As it is, you are caught between the hammer and the anvil and must manage just up to what maybe in April / May 2016 CC will improve things. Here again, they can...

  • Can I go back to the old operating system after upgrade to el Capitan?

    I have a MacBook Air and recently updated (?) for Os X El Capitan. Now, I can't use my Photoshop elements 11. Is there a solution? If this is not the case, can I go back to what I had before El Capitan?

    Hi, grumpy :)

    This isn't what you want to read but it is a recommended to ensure that applications you must have will launch on an updated operating system.

    I do not use the product, but you may need to upgrade your Photo shop elements. Version 14 seems to work on Capitan:

    https://www.Adobe.com/products/Photoshop-elements/buying-guide.html

    You must decide if it's worth the cost of upgrade or use an older OS X, considering that a new OS X (Sierra) will be released at some point.

    Someone else here can advise you how to restore if that's your decision.
