XPS 8700 lights

The XPS 8700 is equipped with a led lights? I bought a Dell laptop a few years back and was disappointed that she did not have a hard drive light. It it? I find the lack of a very annoying, especially when you try to troubleshoot the computer takes care of something or not. The availability of light is a determinant as to whether or not I'm going to buy the computer.

There is no mention or indication of all the lights in any image or manual, I could find on the web.

Yes. It has a small white light of HDD indicator on the front and also turns on the power button on the top.

  • Dell XPS 8700 no power

    Have a Dell XPS 8700 I bought in October 2013.  The other day while my daughter was doing her homework the Tower just closed.  Will not supply this time.  The green light on the back of the power supply does not light.  The led "Power to the" yellow inside the East.

    When I press the button reset, next to green light, at the back of the power supply, the light turns on fans in the case operate one puts the optical drive.  So, it is the power supply or the card mother kaput?  Or is there some waay to put things?  Tried the thing "press and hold the power button / stop for 25 sec ' without success, and also left it unplugged overnight.

    Remove the battery on the motherboard CMOS. Leave, try it for a few seconds then put back in. Try to start the computer after. The green light on the power supply goes off while the computer is not turned on. As the light does not illuminate and things go when you press the test button, your diet should be fine. It could be your motherboard, before we know try resetting the CMOS battery, as I mentioned above. I hope this helps!

  • 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.

     This message should not appear after you complete these steps.  For more information or assistance, please refer to the system documentation.

     Please press the power button to turn the system off.

    Use the HDMI port on the discreet graphics card and do not connect what either on the integrated graphics card connector.

  • XPS 8700 Windows 7 64 card reader disappears!

    Often ill put a SD or CF card into the internal card reader and it disappears from my computer and Device Manager.  No just went wrong! The only way to recover is system sleep and power cord to "unplug". Works for 2 or 3 times and the same thing happens. Dell tried a few software and settings of bugs but that did not work. Then the sent me a new media card reader but same thing happens. Now, they want to replace motherboard and power supply, but I doubt that a is too. Any help or ideas would be great.

    Yes, a very common problem with my XPS 8700. Has been through a lot of readers of cards, motherboards, etc.

    (1) make sure you eject the card reader in the computer drives; the old 'My Computer'. Yes, of course, it's elementary, but several times I just grabbed the first card reader. It applies to remove it from your camera. Don't forget that the camera is turned off before removing.

    2) the "fix"

    It can be irritating, but it you have to remove the side panel and pull the wire connecting the card reader to the motherboard to the wide where it attaches to the motherboard. Then just reconnect and the card reader drives will reappear.

    Technically you should do with the machine power off and unplugged power cord, but I use one of these long slender beak pliers to reach in and get a firm grip on the connector. Just a quick pull and a quick replacement. I would look at the readers to return what they have always done for me. I don't know if it is successful with the machine off. You must be very spastic to not be able to disconnect and reconnect the small connector without touching anything else. A light is useful depending on the ambient light.

    Personally, my CPU is just off the right side of my office, so I always leave the left in Panel enough air flow, but it is certainly easy enough to remove.

    It is difficult to say how long it will last. Finally, it will fail again may 20 all-purpose or more, but I keep the needle forceps nearby. A 2 minute job.

    Good luck!

  • XPS 8700 Black Screen at startup

    It started with some intermittent problems with USB 3.0 connections that would disconnect/re-connect randomly while you are trying to transfer large backups (front and rear taken showing the same questions).
    Called Dell and they have decided that it was a hardware problem which could be solved by replacing the motherboard. After two changes of motherboard (the first being DOA!) I am now left with a PC that has a delay of one minute (with a black screen), startup stops correctly, but also do not restart as it crashes during the stop in this case.
    Have you tried many tests to diagnose the problem, including the withdrawal of the graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750Ti) and reinstalling different drivers (WiFi, Bluetooth, NETWORK card) but no change to the start or restart customer.
    I also removed my 1 TB mSATA (on which I have 8.1 Windows installation) and the 2 TB HDD Dell and inserted a clean formatted HDD. I then plugged the Dell Windows 8.1 recovery USB drive and rebooted. Exactly the same behavior: white light, the light turns off, a black screen for about a minute, then white light comes back on and the computer starts normally - in this case, the recovery on the USB stick software.
    Dell have now agreed to replace the PC with a new one (as it is only a few months old), but I'd be interested if anyone has a vision of what could be the cause of these problems. My guess is that it's another faulty motherboard.

    Sorry, that did not help...

    You are not alone with this problem, and there seems to be a Windows problem based on what I read. Others have solved the problem on the XPS 8700 by installing a USB3 PCI-e card in the PCI-e x 1 slot...

  • DELL XPS 8700 Motherboard power LED

    Hello

    I recently bought a DELL XPS 8700 desktop computer.

    Recently, I noticed that there is this orange light shining inside even when I shut down my PC.

    I opened it and realized that it's this LED power on the motherboard.

    Maybe I've just not noticed it before, but is - it normal that the power light is on constantly?

    Thank you!

    Quite normal. That LED means that the motherboard is powered "flea" power supply as long as the power supply is plugged into an outlet active.

    If you unplug the PC of the plug and press / hold down the power button for about 15 seconds, the LED on the motherboard turns off.

    Find something else to worry about.

  • This block of power SUPPLY Corsair will work in desktop XPS 8700?

    Hello friends,

    I really really wanted to buy the 8700 XPS because the tower is much better and lighter then the Alienware Aurora. But I wanted to know if this PSU Corsair AX760w will be perfectly compatible with the Dell XPS 8700? I wanted to update the 8700 460w POWER supply because I want to update the graphics card for a black titan Nvidia requiring 600w.

    THX

    There isn't one, perhaps that's a Yes. It is perfectly well... a little on the tight side but he did it with a bit of room to spare. I know what I'm talking about. I installed the AX760 in February in my xps8700se and it has worked perfectly since.

    Don't hesitate because this diet is one of the better ones.

  • XPS 8700 - incompatibility eSATA card

    Hello

    I have read elsewhere on the incompatibility between a Dell XPS 8500 and a PCIe 1 X eSATA card that the user had installed.  The user declares that the card was not recognized by Device Manager and thus went inoperative.  I don't remember the problem is resolved.

    Of course, I didn't read about this problem when I too lived the same problem on my XPS 8700.  I installed a new card eSATA PCIe 1 x slot and Bingo! -absolutely nothing.

    I don't think that the PF to this problem are relevant because the XPS specification is concerned there is no card on board.  Updated XPS to update its BIOS bit after I ordered new computer (about 2 weeks).

    Does anyone have any ideas or solutions to try?

    Is that what someone else has similar problems and, if so, Dell "on the case"?

    Best regards

    Mike

    There are 2 questions and none of them are associated with Dell.

    Safe Boot must be off CSM and legacy with Roma option on.

    The card must be PCI-E version 2.1 or 3.0 to work. The power supply of the bus and clock speed are not compatible to 1.0 or 2.0.

    OLDER PCI - E 1.0 and 2.0 cards will be "seen" because the PCI-E bus will not downclock to version

    1.0 on the X 1 slot.

  • XPS 8700, taken audio

    I have a new Dell XPS 8700, it has 6 audio jacks with teeny tiny symbols which color jack I plug my stereo speakers to? For the moment I plugged them into the headphone jack on the top of the computer. Here, the volume is very low. I tried to plug in the 6 taken with no luck. The speakers are an older Dell.

    green = channels before black stereo output = output stereo rear gray = side of the stereo output

    or = double output, center, subwoofer blue = pink = stereo output line level output mono microphone

    At least that is what my xps book says 8700.  Check the speaker icon in the taskbar for noise levels, they can be settled true bottom. Also check the recorder sounds, accessories, click OK, click on speakers. I hope this helps.

  • Description of the XPS 8700 Audio ports

    Where can I find a detailed description of each audio port for an XPS 8700?  The docs I found so far are unnecessary: "four audio output ports / headset" tells us nothing.  These manuals can be dumbed down many more!

    Here you go:

    And to answer your last question, no, I don't think so.

    * Click the Hardware tab
    * Click on "Device Installation settings" and then click "No, let me choose what to do" and "never install driver from Windows Update. Click on save changes. This step is important, or even updates Windows will always write the Windows 8.1 driver

    * Reboot the system
    * Install the audio driver Realtek Windows 8.1
    XPS - 8700_Audio_Driver_N4TKF_WN_6.0.1.7016_A00. EXE

  • Please help trouble Code 43 error graphics card for XPS 8700 (as well as the disappearance of sleep/Standby Mode) (Windows 10)

    I got my XPS in 2014 and my warranty of service completed in 2015 Jan before I installed Windows 10. So since I've upgraded to Windows 10 I started having problems with by XPS 8700. Now, I have no guarantee. I thought he would go better once they have released an update of the BIOS and it did for a while unfortunately in recent months, I noticed two major issues.

    (1) upon the starting and restarting my computer, my monitor does not end up receiving the signal from the computer and remains dark.

    -Checking that it is not a problem with the monitor by testing with other computers

    -J' checked in the Device Manager and there was a next yellow alert for graphic cards / NVIDIA GeForce GT 635

    -By clicking on, he showed me this: Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)

    Unfortunately, it is not the only problem with the graphics card.

    (2) "sleep" my mode is gone (it is related to graphics and BIOS).

    -J' tried the go in power to add setting but it was not yet listed.

    -I went to the command prompt and looked powercfg.exe that's what I discovered:

    C:\Windows\System32>Powercfg - a

    The following sleep States are available on this system:

    Hibernate

    Quick start

    The following sleep States are not available on this system:

    Standby (S1)

    The system firmware does not support this standby state.

    An internal system component has disabled this standby state.

    Graphics

    Standby (S2)

    The system firmware does not support this standby state.

    An internal system component has disabled this standby state.

    Graphics

    Standby (S3) mode

    An internal system component has disabled this standby state.

    Graphics

    Eve (S0 low idle power)

    The system firmware does not support this standby state.

    Hybrid sleep

    Standby (S3) mode is not available.

    Now I really wish I could start or restart my pc without staring at a blank screen and the problem of code 43 with Nvidia GeForce GT 635. Also, I would if I could have the option to upgrade my PC to sleep. I really miss it and do not have to constantly reboot my computer to be able to see anything on the monitor.

    I hope someone can help me with these questions without having to reset the pc and reinstall, all over again, that the problem still exists in other cases (I don't have a copy of the installation of programs pre-installed dells so...). This computer is only 2 years old, it didn't need to be retired.

    NVIDIA GeForce GT 635 (PCI\VEN_10DE & DEV_1280) the card is physically wrong and needs to be replaced.

  • Add map its SoundBlaster to XPS-8700

    I have a desktop XPS-8700. I added a second DVD burner and a second hard drive in the box. I wonder if there is enough power to quietly add a sound card. I'm sure there is an available slot. I have not to add anything like that, but the two discs I mentioned. Neither made any other changes.

    Assuming that it's OK to add the sound card, do you know if you need to install the software first or the hardware. I'll probably have to download new drivers since I'm now on Windows 10.

    Thank you.

    X 1 most of its cards use 10W max so this isn't a problem.

    The soundcard as an option for the 8700 is a 3D SB1350 Recon.
