View 5 Replies View RelatedIssue With Reinstalling Xp On Dell Optiplex 330
Apr 7, 2010Recently our Dell Optiplex 330 experienced some pretty severe virus attacks that render the computer useless. The user had disabled the installed protect advising that it slowed his performance and would not let him install cute little things from his favorite social network. The machine was so hosed it was determined the best course of action was to reformat the drive and basically start over. The problem is this unit was sold to us by Dell with a license for Windows Vista Business which we request it be down graded to XP service pack 3. Each time we attempt to reinstall windows xp from teh provided original disc we get the famous blue screen advising there is a problem with the hard drive, etc. How can we reinstall the our favorite XP? The unit has a SATA hard drive.

May 28, 2007I received a dell optiplex gx110 and its os is win 2000 and it has a password so I removed the hard disk of the dell and put it on the other pc as a slave drive and I formatted the the hard disk in NTFS. When I was ready to install the win xp, the computer says NTLDR is missing press ctrl alt del to restart even though the boot sequence is in IDE CDROM > Floppy > Hard disk. I decided to format it again as a FAT32 using my other pc. "The NTLDR is missing" was changed into "Remove disk or other media press any key to restart".

Jun 22, 2005Have two brand new Dell OptiPlex machines with WinXP Pro that reboot when you do a shutdown. They go through the normal shutdown and then start booting again. I've tried everything I can find on the web about power management settings and such, and have contacted Dell who ultimately recommended reinstalling the OS.Would anyone have any other recommendations before I take the drastic step of re installation? The machines have a ton of production software already loaded that will take hours to reinstall.

Jan 31, 2005I do computer work for a library system. One library that I dread going to because these dell machines have been a headache for me. The problem started last year when the machines would just restart on there own when surfing the web. Tried to upgrade the machines from Win98 to XP problem still there. I then did a fresh install of the machine ran all the updates (before SP2 came out) and did everything I could think of. The machines were working with no problems. UNTIL one of them last week crashed, bad HDD. So I put a new Western Digital 40GB HDD in and did a clean install ran all the updates and installed Office XP with no problems. The machine was on for 6 hours running fine. Then I went to a website called www.safesurf.com and it just shutdown. With in a half of an second it shut completely down. Now the weird thing is that it doesn't run a scan for errors when the machine starts backup. Its like the computer has mental problems. I downloaded the new Java client and thought that would do the trick. I can get to the website from any other of my computers here in the office. Any ideals??? Nothing shows up in the error logs and I guess I don't know where to start. It can't be a power supply problem can it the machine is running fine until I go to that site.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSound Error On Dell Optiplex
Jan 31, 2005Every time I reboot the computer, skype (since it launches at start up) tells me that there are no sound devices. I go to the device manager, but the sound device is listed. It doesn't work though. I try winamp/wmp etc, no sound. So I do a uninstall, and redetect and its all good. Now if I reboot the computer, I have to repeat this whole process. Now, I thought this had something to do with the onboard audio, so I diabled that in the Bios, and added a pci sound card, but the same thing happened.This computer also has issues with WinXP sp2s firewall. I can't turn it on, but thats an issue for some other thread.

Aug 23, 2005I have just used ACRONIS True Image to clone WIN XP Pro from an IBM Think pad to a Dell Optiplex desktop.After restoring the image to the Dell - I used the original Dell XP Pro disk to do a Repair install (not recovery console). XP then booted up into the Dell.All works fine and I have not had to re-install any of my applications.However, I am missing my display driver, Power management drivers, etc. So I can't hibernate but the display as it stands works fine.Is there some way of getting these drivers to be recognized or auto detected? I thought Windows would just auto detect them but perhaps because everything is working this step is bypassed.I can always go back and do a restore with my Dell disks but I am trying to avoid re-installing all my apps - the greater task than reinstalling XP.

Dec 13, 2006I've read that not all Windows XP Pro installations are the same. (OEM versions, Licensed versions, and the real deal retail.) Which one of these should I use to update a Dell Optiplex GX240 running Windows 98? (IT is a First Edition, Not SE) I ask this, because we had an OEM version, but the only option I get is Clean Install. As it is my bosses computer and all his program disk have disappeared over the years. He only wants an upgrade.

Mar 2, 2008I have trouble getting it to stop. I'm running WinXP Pro SP2 on a Dell Optiplex. About 50% of the time, when I want to shut down, I get past the "Saving your settings" screen, to "Windows is shutting down". And that's as far as it goes. I then have to manually turn off the computer. It doesn't matter whether I've selected "Shut Down" or "Restart". The other 50% of the time it shuts down like it's supposed to.

Stays on when plug pulled short time, less than a minute, goes off. When plugged in, fan starts, standby light lights, even before power button is pressed.

Sep 1, 2006Dell that has been fried by lightning and wants me to get the pictures off the Hard Drive. No problem, sort of. The problem is that now I see no info when I boot the computer. The monitor only comes to life when windows starts up. So, I can't enter into the BIOS, change my boot drive, mess with my arrays, or anything. I'm using Windows XP SP2. My HDD are SATA while the Dell's was IDE (just thought I'd throw that out there).
Problem occurs after the Dell HDD has been removed.
Dell Laptop Won't Boot - Curser Only
Oct 18, 2009I'm using a Dell 9300 Inspiron laptop that was working just fine yesterday. I shut it down and now it won't boot into Windows XP Pro SP3, it goes past the Dell screen then goes all black except for a curser on the top left of screen. It will not boot into Safe Mode (F8). I can boot into the BIOS (F2) but see no discrepancies and can change the boot from the HD to the CD drive. What I've done so far:
1. Inserted the Dell Utilities CD and run full diagnostics-no problems found.
2. Inserted the OS disc and ran XP repair, it finished with no problems shown and then reverted to the black screen with the curser.
I have access to a SATA dock and could check it there but there must be something else, especially since I can't even get into Safe Mode.

Apr 21, 2005I have a Dell Dimension 8200 desktop running WinXP Home however It won't boot to the hard drive. I replaced the drive with a known working one and it still doesn't boot, says Diskette Drive 0 Not Found, however I figured that was referring to the floppy drive. Tried switching the ide cables around and that didn't work either. The power supply is working, as well as all of the fans. Its running a 1700mh processor. Cd-Rom works fine, and I can boot to a CD, I can browse the files if I boot to Knoppix, however it simply won't boot to the Hard Drive. I ran FixMbR and FixBoot in the recovery console, to no avail. Bios is configured properly, and I haven't touched the jumpers. Just to be sure I tried the hard drive in another system, and it wouldn't boot in that one either. Might be the mother board?
