I have a 2014 OptiPlex 9020 SFF, and the case fan (at the bottom front of the case) has started making a rattling sound like its bearings are going. I'm trying to identify the appropriate replacement part, but have not been able to find the specific Dell alphanumeric part number, nor an appropriat

I just tried to update the BIOS from A03 to the latest A10. I'm running Windows 10 Home, Vers. 1709., with all updates installed. Everything about the BIOS update seemed to go well. Got a message that the update was successful but needed a restart to take effect. I hit the Restart Now option, Seemed

I have an Inspiron 3847 in which I installed a SSD as the primary and moved the existing HDD to the secondary drive position. I am wondering if anyone has installed a third HDD (or SSD) using the Sata and power cables intended for the optional secondary optical drive? Thanks.

My son would like to use his GTX 1060 graphics card in his new Inspiron 3668, so I wanted to upgrade the power supply to something with 600W -- but I gather the original PSU is smaller than the power supply we have (5.9 x 5.5 x 3.38 inches), at least in height and width.  Will the power supply

My PC Dell Aurora R4 won't update properly due to it not being on the list of Windows 10 Creator supported drivers PC from dell. Does anyone one know if dell is going to correct this matter.

I was looking at possibly getting an XPS 8930 with a low-performance processor (e.g., i3-8100) now, and upgrading the processor in a couple years when the prices come down for the higher performing chips. How can I determine now what the range of compatible "drop-in" processors are. Will every proc

About a month ago I bought 2 Dell Optiplex 760 MTs. Both systems are exactly the same in every way and work very well. Both have the latest A16 BIOS and all the latest drivers from Dell installed. Last week, I bought a Dodocool 2-port USB 3.0 PCIe expansion card and it works on both Optiplex 760

It appears I need to replace the 32GB SSD in my computer, as the Intel RST reports multiple repeat failures in the drive. I purchased a replacement SSD, but when I installed it, the system failed to find a boot drive, so obviously I'm missing something. Can someone please list the steps to replacing

I have a Dell Area 51 desktop that won't boot up when I plug in a Kensington SD3500v port replicator (AKA Docking Station), but once booted up I can plug the port replicator and move the monitor, mouse and keyboard to the SD3500v and everything works fine. It seems to fail only when I boot up eithe

How do I identify the System Board on this AIO? I have it mostly apart but don't see the system board part numbers yet.  I would like to price it before I go further also.  Can't find the Part Number in the documentation so I assume it needs to come off the board itself. http://www.dell.

Hi All   The fan was having problems in my old Dell E510.   I found a cheap replacement, and when I got the old fan out, I was surprised that the airflow arrow was facing to the Front of the computer.  Instead of blowing air over the CPU heat sink, toward the back, it blows tow

I'm planning on getting a optiplex 9020 (refurb.) for a decent pc, better than my current one. I'm also planning on getting a MSI Dual Fan 4G NVIDIA 1050 TI gaming graphics card and slapping that card into the Optiplex.

I shut down my desktop and both fans spin like crazy, i am sure this never happened before, all tests passed, firmware updated etc, etc, Dell support response below. I have confirmed that it is normal for the fan to spin fast when turned off. It is working as designed, it does this to help the

I have a Dell XPs 8930 with an i7-8700 (not 8700K) CPU. I have found that under load - e.g. ripping a bluray which runs the CPU at 100% for about an hour - the machine is really loud. (Note that when doing anything else and not under heavy load the machine is effectively silent.) I have the PC unde
