XPS 8700 displayport connection

Hello everyone, this is my first post from the community. I tried to nail the answers to my question by Bing searches, but this has been frustrating. Put in a request for information to Support Dell ago several days but have not heard from them yet. I did see an option to save my e-mail address when I registered my user name, so I don't know how this would be called. However, my email is '[email protected] '. I bought an XPS 8700 in August with I7 4790, 16 G of RAM, 1 TB HDD, Geforce GTX GPU 745. I've been running this via an E173P monitor that I bought with my XP rig in 2004 (a bigger table but it's 4.3 aspect ratio, 1024 res, VGA etc..) Time to upgrade.

My GPU has HDMI, DVI - D and VGA output. I'm looking at multiple monitors but especially looking at the Dell u2415 which has HDMI, Displayport and Mindisplayport entries. The questions I have are: 1. is the HDMI on my card to support this resolution (1920 x 1200) at 60 frames per second. 2. a seemingly more difficult question to answer is: If for some reason that I have problems with the HDMI, DVI - D fits the Displayport on the monitor. I guess my DVI - D output is to double bond. I did a fair amount of searching for an answer to this question and have seen responses in all directions. Most of the cards I saw indicated they were "Displayport to DVI - D" never "DVI - D Displayport. Does it matter? Is this possible? In any case, before ordering the monitor I really need to make sure that it will work with my GPU. Help will be appreciated. Thank you.

  • S2340T and XPS 8700

    I installed as follows.  Connected the USB cable from the monitor (S2340T) to PC (XPS 8700).  Connected PC HDMI cable for monitor.  Power cord plugged in.  The monitor is turned on.  PC turned on.   Windows 8 is displayed correctly on the screen.  But the mouse and keyboard slow.  Too easy touch.  Often, I have to repeat same thing several times.  plays background music - same short sounds.

    If I unplug the USB cable, keyboard & mouse then behaves normally, and the music stops playing.  It proves that if HDMI and USB is plugged at the same time, there is a mismatch.  But then touch screen does not like he needs the USB connection.  No software not loaded for the monitor.

  • Problem connecting-up monitor Dell XPS 8700 S2715H

    I just purchased the Dell XPS 8700 (i7-4790) / 16 GB and the 27 '' Dell monitor S2715H.  The graphics card is Nvidia GeForce GTX 745.

    The monitor turns on but that's it.  And I see that the PC power supply light is also on.  But there is no picture.

    After spending several hours in my own train, then with Technical Support Dell on phone that says I need a VGA cable (tried).  But I STILL get the error after (in italics below).

    My question is THAT I have to get my monitor working.  So far I have not been able to use this new Dell system.  Is someone can you PLEASE help me solve this problem.

    Apart from supply cable of the monitor, there are only two other cables that came, i.e. HDMI and a USB cable.  I tried both and then the single HDMI, then the only USB.  I also tried the VGA connection by itself and with the HDMI.  NOTHING HAS WORKED SO FAR.   Help, please:

    ATTENTION: No supported video Configuration detected

    Action is required

     This computer has an add-in graphics card and the monitor cable is plugged into the integrated video connector.

     To connect the cable from the monitor into the graphics add-in card:

    1. shut down the computer

    2. plug the cable from the monitor into the graphics add-in card connector. This may require a video card or the video adapter cable. (provided with the system)

    3. turn on the computer.

  • New XPS 8700 - cannot properly set resolution

    I have a new 8700 XPS with Radeon 7570, that has a DVI - D and HDMI port.  There is also a display port on the motherboard, but I don't have a monitor with a DisplayPort port, so that one is now useless for me; In addition, I want to use the Radeon, so I'm ignoring the video to the mobo.

    I have a DVI-D-to-DVI-D cable, I was using on my old system, so I know that the cable is good.

    I have a new cable HDMI-to-DVD-D who just today.

    I want to drive a Dell 3007WFP (2560 x 1600, and its only entry is DVD - D) as my main screen.  Must it be connected to the HDMI port of the Radeon (via HDMI-DVI-D cable), or the DVI - D port (using the DVI-D-to-DVI-D cable)?

    My second monitor is an old but a goodie - Dell (1920 x 1200) 2405WFP.  There D DVI or VGA as possible entries.

    So I have a computer with HDMI and DVI - D cables to connect out for each monitor.

    I currently work 2405 with the Radeon in 1920 x 1200 (as my secondary display) using the DVI - D - to - DVI - D cable, leaving the HDMI-DVI-D cable for the 3007.

    My problem is that I can't drive the 3007 higher than 1280 x 800,-there is no option to keep the higher resolution.  The cursor I get under "Screen Resolution" only goes to '1280 x 800 (recommended) '.  I tried the two cables, and 1280 x 800 is as high as possible.  I reinstalled the Catalyst drivers.  Everything appears in OK (no yellow exclamation) Device Manager.

    HOW can I DRIVE a MONITOR 2560-x-1600 OF THE RADEON HD 7570 IN CE XPS 8700?

    * EDIT * I forgot to mention that I got the car that came with 8 Win out and put in a new blank disc perfectly and installed Win 7 (64) business.  What is a driver-install-order problem?  Also, the machine came with BIOS A02 and A03 is common, but I don't see that as being the difference.

    Solved.  It WAS apparently a driver-order problem.  "Drivers and downloads" page of Dell is spectacularly counterproductive in terms of describing what are the components (e.g., what they DO).    I took them in this order:

    01 Chipset_Intel_Win_A00_21Y1M_Setup_ZPE.exe

    02 ME_Intel_WIN_A00_Y22PK_setup_ZPE.exe

    03 USB3.0_Intel_Win7_A00_1TH4K_Setup_ZPE.exe

    04 iRST_Intel_Win_A01_Setup - VF6WW_ZPE.exe

    05 GFX_A00_12.102_J47H1_ZPESetup_ZPE.exe

  • Display no. DP U2414H, XPS 8700.

    I just unboxed and configure my new PC from Dell XPS8700 and the new Dell U24214H monitor.  I can't monitor to work and continually get "No. Displayport Cable" message on the screen.  I rebooted several times and no luck.  Any ideas?

    If you have ordered the 8700 XPS with an discrete video card added, the DisplayPort cable monitor must be plugged directly on the lowest discrete DisplayPort video card and not plugged the DisplayPort onboard / integrated below the HDMI port built-in. One disables added video card XPS built-in DisplayPort, HDMI ports 8700.

    If you ordered the XPS 8700 with the low end Nvidia GeForce GT635, it does not have a DisplayPort, it has HDMI, DVI, VGA. So to connect to the U2414H, you have the support send you this T516NHDMI cable, or pick up any HDMI cable locally.

  • GeForce GTX 970/980 on XPS 8700

    Hello, I have XPS 8700, which came with OEM GTX 745. I think it passes to the Geforce GTX 970 or 980. These word on 8700 XPS video cards?

    I am particularly concerned, because system recommended for 970 power is 500 W to nVidia's specifications, total power of XPS8700 is 460 w. Has anyone installed GTX 970 or 980 on 8700 XPS?

    Hey Ryocchin,

    The GTX970 or the GTX980 will work in terms of being able to connect through PCI-express port.  Where you might encounter a problem is with the physical size of the map.  I know that some 970 models can be 12 inches, I guess the 980 years can grow according to the solutions of cooling for these exotic cards.

    The other piece of the puzzle is to replace the power supply.  A 460W pourrait be authorized as a basis of suppliers GPU their system requirements on the assumptions made about the power draw of the entire system & always shoot a bit on the high side.  But if your computer is a few years old is probably not turn off 460 watts.  So I recommend a new power supply.  EVGA, Corsair, XFXm and Antec have all been good for me over the years.  If you want to simulate a modular PSU that you'll save tangles of cables.

    So those are the two big things to look for: physical space for the graphics card (although I'm sure that a XPS8700 will hold a 970 without problem a lot) and a new power supply.

    The Dell service manual is here if you want to get an idea of what it looks like to replace components:

  • Dell XPS 8700 - technician Dell beat the Audio drivers

    Was originally a XPS 8300, he had problems and replaced by a 8700 XPS Dell.

    Other than having to blow on the operating system and install 8.1 on the SSD instead of the mechanical drive, I thought everything was working correctly.

    Come to know that I have static detach audio from the motherboard. Troubleshoot-performed on mine... two different monitors with speakers and a 55 '' HDTV LG. Static on each of them with two different auxiliary cables. Then connected to the monitor and LG TV via HDMI to my video card and voila... a crystal clear sound. Not static.

    Dell has decided to try to solve my problems of its motherboard remotely by phone and basically broke my Audio drivers. She has uninstalled the driver and tried to reinstall and now he repeats down in big red letters.

    When I click in Device Manager there is not an explanation mark... it's just appearing as a generic «High Definition audio» description Before that he was showing the Realtek Audio driver as it should.

    Dell sent a replacement motherboard and the technician just installed it at home but they cannot always get the driver to install properly and she wants me to blow my BONES together. Ugh!

    Everyone knows these before driver with integrated sound hardware XPS 8700 problems and if so, how should I do?

    I would avoid blowing my PC if I can, I just went through the pain of a data migration and install OS and program news.

    * Uninstall the generic "High Definition Audio" device in Device Manager
    * Go here and do the automatic update of Intel
    * Reset
    * Realtek the only update from the same page
    * Reset

  • XPS 8700 earpiece problem

    I currently own a XPS 8700 and I have problems with the use of headphones.

    Unless earphones are plugged in until I press the power button, the computer fails to recognize them. If they are connected before turning on the computer they work fine, I can disconnect and plug them in 10 minutes later and they will appear again and work as expected.

    I tried with several different pairs of headphones, always with the same result.

    Does anyone have suggestions as to how can I fix?

    Thank you

    Yes, I would expect them all the same. As I said, the helmets and headphones are just dumb peripheral analog. But since it works when headphones are connected before starting, then the physical must be OK. Then, that points to a driver or other software problem. Have you tried to update the audio driver?

  • Watch the video on my TV via HDMI to a XPS 8700

    I replaced my XPS 8100 with a XPS 8700 last week and before buying I double checked with Dell that I could indeed watch tv since the 8700 XPS HDMI as the graphics card in the 8100 would not allow this and based on the answer as I could without any problems, I went ahead. Having just put all of this and the fact that my TV recognizes that an HDMI cable is connected there is no signal because no 2nd screen/monitor will appear in the display as the 8100 settings!

    Not happy at all, but if anyone can help I would appreciate these modern machines should be able to do this now, unless I have missed soemthing!

  • 3 monitors on XPS 8700 with AMD Radeon HD 270 R9

    Hello world

    Just a quick question. Can I conduct 3 monitors to a XPS 8700 with the AMD Radeon HD R9 270 card?

    I read somewhere that it supports Eyefinity, and in the marketing of the images I see 3 ports on the video card. an hdmi and a DVI and a VGA. Eyefinity normally uses an active displayport adapter. You don't know everything just not if I'll be able to use all 3 ports to control monitors. Or maybe use 2 ports from the dedicated card and the onboard port.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    I've never tested, but in theory, it should work.

  • 3 installation of monitors on Dell XPS 8700

    Hello

    I realize that he had already given a few questions and answers on this topic, but I'm still a little confused, because this kind of thing is not my strong point.  I would be very happy to help here.

    I just got a new Dell XPS 8700 with a videocard of NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 745 4 GB DDR3.  I'm going to need to have a 3 monitor configuration in the near future and I was wondering the best way to make this work.  The video card has 1 VGA - HDMI, DVI-D-1 and 1.  Separated from the video card, there is an another HDMI and a Displayport.

    I have not completely made my decision between 3-23 "or 2-23" with 1-27 "immediately.  (Will not be the fanciest monitors in the world). Exodus 3 - Dell S2340M or 2 of those and pick-up and Ultrasharp for fun.

    I'm not a gamer.  I'm a trader.  I can't manage any lag when updating. I'm not too concerned about the image is as clear as possible.

    Thank you much for the help.

    You can use as well the equipped with an Intel HD4600 video card and a video card discreet if Intel Multi display is enabled in the Bios. With the Intel option enabled multi-display, HDMI on Board will be the primary display and ports on the discrete card screen will become secondary display. Read this article before you proceed.

  • Dell XPS 8700 - How to install Windows XP on it

    Hello

    I have read on this forum that it was possible to install Win XP on XPS 8500 and wanted Trailblazers thanks!

    I was wondering if someone has even tried to install XP on the 8700?

    I should receive my XPS 8700 with Win 7 Premium on this topic next week?

    I then unplug the original HD and try to install XP on one of my free SATA 3 SSD.

    Also, very probably I will change the video card for another model with a compatible driver that I used for a few years in another i7 PC (I have a spare card).

    The early problem would be drivers, in particular drivers Ethernet/LAN

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Please note that I prefer (in spite of having a legal copy for Win 7 and Win 8 Pro lying around) Win XP for my typical usage.* *.

    Thank you

    XPSTester

    I got the PC.

    Step 1: Unit under test and recovery CD made.

    Step 2: BIOS Mode changed SATA AHCI RAID Mode changed.

    Step 3: Air conditioner stops. HARD drive disconnected original. SSD connected instead.

    Step 4: Windows XP is installed from the CDROM. PC works fine, super fast.

    Step 5: Realtek Ethernet controller installed (see the link above, thanks again Sandeep! :-).) Surf the Internet, it is now possible and, therefore, all the rest. The most important step accomplished :-).

    Step 6: Install my own ATI video card and drivers Realtek Audio & HDMI. Playing music and video on an HDTV in Mode Extended accomplished!

    I got 5 points at issue in Device Manager after installing Win XP.

    3 of them have been solved by various software to Intel.

    2 of those remaining are related to Wireless & Bluetooth.

    This is the best I could do at the moment... :-)

  • XPS 8700 and Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 OC graphics card

    I saw a thread on here stating that the AMD Radeon 7870 was compatible with the XPS 8500, so I guess that the overclockee of this card Sapphire version would work in my XPS 8700.  I inserted the card into my computer and connected the two power connectors 6 pins.  When I rebooted the computer, he made five beeps short and then put under tension (without the Dell splash screen, I think).  Restart again (and hear the same five beeps), I pressed F2 to enter the BIOS, but it wouldn't let me get into the BIOS.  The third time that I restarted, I just let it start and then after about half an hour of use, the computer is frozen on a blue screen (not BSOD). I turned off the unit and do not have reverse.

    I chatted with a few guys from Dell, which said that the five beeps meant that it was a problem of compatibility of video card, but he could not say more than that and pushed to me to contact Dell sales to buy a compatible card (no thanks).

    Anyone can check that the five beeps are told?  I hate to have to return this card to where I bought it and I'm not sure I can.  I get beeps if there is a driver problem that I'm missing?  Or beeps always mean a hardware problem? I'd get a beep if my diet was too weak?  Other thoughts?  Someone at - it no good they know maps work on the 8700 XPS?

    There was many problems reported with some video cards and the XPS compatibility 8300, 8500, and now the 8700.

    Make sure that you uninstall the drivers for video cards before you remove them and put in a new card.  Make sure that the power supply is disconnected and you have pressed and held the power button for at least 15 seconds.  You can also try to remove the CMOS battery.  Then install new video card, replace the battery and plug it back the power cord.

    In addition, connect the monitor to the integrated graphics card and restart.  Press F12 or F8 to access the Start Menu. Under the Start Menu, there should be a 'Change Boot Mode Setting' setting. This parameter will have the possibility to turn UEFI Secure Boot on or Off, change it to Off.  It is a common problem in Windows 8 that occurs when you try to add another video card due to conflict with Secure Boot and new motherboards UEFI where you post or get the beep codes.
