WiFi for Dell Optiplex 960

I bought a mini WiFi dongle generic, as below, in the hope that I can connect my OptiPlex 960 Win 8 in WiFi.

[img] http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTAwMVgxMDAx/z/4WsAAOSwuTxV7mJy/ $_12.JPG [line]

I plug it into a USB port (tried both at the front and two at the rear) and is not recognized as new hardware (doing same on laptop that is).

In Device Manager, it will appear under "other devices" like 802.11n NIC

The device status is: the drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

Select 'Update Driver' is unable to locate the driver.

Any ideas?

Sorting :)

As chance would have, a quick google came to this, the driver for Realtek contained in archive zip below allowed him.

    Hello! I recently acquired a Dell Optiplex 960 (the larger one) and it comes with the integrated graphics card, so I was wondering what graphics card I put in it?

    I used an OptiPlex 960 SFF (Q9650 processor) and 8 GB of RAM as a development machine. I installed a Sapphire 6570 graphics card and had absolutely no problem; the 6570 will be a huge leap in performance and features on the integrated graphics card.

  • Dell OptiPlex 960 - hardware virtualization

    I am trying to install ESXi on a Dell OptiPlex 960 5.5, but I get an error message: "HARDWARE_VIRTUALIZATION WARNING: hardware virtualization is not a characteristic of the CPU, or is not enabled in the BIOS.  However, I believe that it is a feature of the CPU and is enabled in the BIOS.  Here's my hardware information.  Any idea would be appreciated.  Thank you!

    Intel Processor ID utility reports the following:

    Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 3 .00GHz

    Supports Intel virtualization technology

    Does NOT support Intel VT - x with Extended Page Tables.

    Intel site reports, the UC DO take support VT - x.

    ARK | Intel & amp; #174; Core™ 2 Duo processor E8400 (3.00 GHz, 1333 MHz FSB, 6 MB Cache)

    BIOS is up to date on the A18

    Intel virtualization technology is enabled in the BIOS.

    Intel VT for direct i/o is enabled in the BIOS

    Intel Trusted Execution Technology is enabled in the BIOS

    The TPM secure security is enabled in the BIOS

    VT. Reports for the two processors

    VT is disabled in the control of the MSR function!

    I can tell you with certainty if it works, but I would say that you ensure "VT - x" as well as "Execute Disable" are both enabled, and the other option you mentioned (VT - d, execution of trust, TPM) are disabled.

    After you change these settings, make sure you feed the cycle (power/power on) the PC after you have saved the settings. A simple reboot is usually not enough.

  • More big power supply for Dell Optiplex 7040MT - please help

    Hi all

    I recently bought a dell optiplex 7040 mini lathe and it came with a 240 watt power supply. I want to update and would like to know what my options are.

    Thank you

    The 7040 could use the same wacky scheme that uses precision T1700.  If this is the case MODDIY has an adapter to convert the 24pin connector 8 pin. Suitable for Dell OptiPlex 3020 / 7020 / 9020 / T1700 so I think the 7040 is the same.

  • How to disable a GPU dedicated to Dell Optiplex 960

    I use an ATI Radeon HD 4550 with Dell Optiplex SFF GX960 (BIOS A08), sometimes I want to save energy by opting for the Integrated GPU (Intel GMA)... My question if there is a way to disable/enable the GPU dedicated without removing the motherboard.

    I tried to disable in the BIOS in the category of video settings I found 2 modes Auto and Onboard/add in card, when I use Auto and set the display the Intel GPU it causes a "unsupported video Configuration interrupted system!" and asks me to fix the screen to the dedicated card, while the other mode ignores the totally integrated GPU.

    Thanks in advance

    No, the only way to turn off is to remove it. This isn't a laptop.

    But there is no power gpu switching.

  • best upgrade processor for Dell Optiplex GX620

    Hello

    What is the fastest processor intel core 2, I can buy for my dell optiplex gx620?
    It has a pentium 4 2.8 ghz LGA775 socket

    I've heard of bieng capped at 800 mhz fsb and I was also wondering if I could buy a dell optiplex Board that supports intel core 2 processor or if there is a way to Flash the BIOS for this

    concerning

    Ash

    The GX620 does not support processors. The chipset could theoretically make some of the low end, but the bios should recognize the processor and then more or less allows dajuster the voltage supplied to the CPU motherboard.

    The best you can get is a Pentium D I think. The first Optiplex with main support was the 745 if my memory serves.

  • Need a video card compatible for Dell Optiplex 745 (SFF) - help, please!

    I have a Dell Optiplex 745 SFF. The details of the standard can be found here: http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/opti_745techspecs.pdf

    (even once, look at the MFS)

    I want to get the best possible video card for this PC that I can find, and I was hoping someone could help me with my options. I am aware of my options are limited, but I'd like to work with what I have here. Thanks much for any help.

    Sapphire 7750 is the best low profile card I know. There is no need of current auxiliary and is compatible with your power supply.

    SA makes a 7750 as well, but it requires more space and I don't know if it is compatible with your frame.
