I pre-ordered Windows 7 but the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor says my onboard graphics adapter won't support the Windows Aero User Interface. I don't play games on my PC but I would like all the fancy visual features of Windows 7. How do I go about choosing a graphics card that will do the job for me?

Audio Drivers For Dell E520 PC

May 13, 2009

I noticed the Audio with Windows 7 is not as loud/bright as it was under Vista, my guess is the drivers. After I undated my Audio Drivers in Vista the sound improved bigtime, has anyone updated their Audio drivers to the latest Vista drivers with Win. 7?? I have a Dell E520 PC(obviously I'd download Dells newest Vista Drivers for my integrated Audio).

Windows 7 Driver For Dell Dimension 5100?

Mar 17, 2012

I decided to install Windows 7 on to my kids Dell Dimension 5100 which had been xp base, as they tend to pick up a lot of adware-malware in the kiddie sites they go to. Window 7 has better security features that I want to help deal with these problems.Unfortunately, once I reformated the drive and install Window 7 there is no longer any sound from the computer. As I search the Dell website, it turns out they didn't have device drivers listed for Window 7 for the 5100 devices.At this point, I don't know what to do; do I have to revert back to xp which means I picked up window 7 for nothing...verything else seem to be working okay, so do I have to pick up a new sound card?...or would the device company provide a win 7 driver in time?

Dell Dimension 4600 Clean Windows 7 Install - No Sound

Dec 12, 2009

I have a Dell Dimension 4600 and recently had a clean install of Windows 7 done by a large box store (I won't list names at this point). They told me that the system was compatible however, when I got it home and several hundred dollars later, we have no sound.

Dell Dimension 2400 Windows 7 Screen Resolution Stuck At 480 X 640

Mar 29, 2012

I have recently loaded Windows 7 (Home Premium) on to a Dell Dimension 2400 (32 bit). Installation went smoothly but screen resolution is stuck at 480 x 640 which makes the computer practically unworkable. I understand (but am nor sure) that Dell does not support Windows 7 on this machine and the only solution is a new video card.

Install On Dell Dimension 4700

Feb 25, 2010

Three years ago I gave my wife my Dimension 4700 (520, 2GB ram, XFX 9600GT video, XP Pro). For her use of internet news research, MSN games, online banking/shopping and email, it's fine for her. I was toying with trying Windows 7 on there because I've heard other folks talk about successfully installing it on older hardware. Anyone done this on a 4700?

I can ghost her machine and try 7 from my MSDN, the return to the original image if it fails. Just wanted to save the grief if someone else has tried it already.

I downloaded the drivers from the Dell website, and figured it would solve my problem of not being able to change the resolution. It didn't.

Now I am stuck. Is this computer just not able to handle Windows 7?

Dell Dimension 8400 Network Driver Missing

Dec 25, 2009

I am using win XP and had to wipe. I was missing various drivers so I got them off the Dell site. Seems installation order is important, so I think I followed the correct order (tried multiple orders when was still missing a network controller). I have all installed except the wireless controller.

I am able to use internet via ethernet hard wire but can't find the controller for wireless. I used a driver elvaluation site to get the controller I need, but when I downloaded the controller from this site and going directly to the manufacturers site, there isn't an executable file to load the driver. Any suggestions?

Dell Dimension 2400 Graphics Card Problem

Oct 26, 2009

I have a Dell Dimension 2400 which has onboard graphics. I think the chip set is intel 845E.

Obvioulsy this isnt compatible with Windows 7.

Is there any way I can make this compatible or can some one tell me a PCI (not express) graphics card that is compatible with Windows 7.

Everything else works fine its just a shame the graphics card isnt compatible.
