Dell :: Can I Stuff 4GB RAM Into My 9200
Jan 25, 2009
STILL very happy with my old 9200!
Upgraded from a 1.8 Dothan to a 2.0, but didn't really see much difference. Stepping is managed by Right Mark.
I have 2GB of Kingston RAM in her. PC 2700, I think.
What's the bestest, fastest, coolest RAM I can put in, and how much can I jamb in there?
I'm not sure if they even made RAM in 2GB sticks for my system. The FSB is only 400, but what if I put in (2) sticks of 2GB RAM (that will fit), but is meant for a higher FSB?
Would I have acess to 4GB of RAM, only at the max speed my system would allow?
Or would my system simply puke because it just won't accept any more that 2GB?
(Pretty obvious I don't know anything about RAM,)

Last night I went to switch on my dell inspiron 9200 and the initial screen with the bar along the bottom came up but subsequently froze.I powered down and started up again and it did the same thing..
After powering down for the second time, nothing came up at all, although certain lights came on ( bluetooth,power,batt etc ) but then it switched itself off without booting.

I just a problem with my laptop and I decided to reinstall it. And since I have changed my hard drive I dont have a recovery disk so I had to use XP CD and install the drivers one by one. now to the problem.
Först I couldnt download file R88754.exe. the file I had on my computer couldnt install cause it says "resources file missing". What I did is I went to dell website and tried to download the file but the download manager wouldnt let me download.
Here is the problem; After I reinstalled everything works fine execept my S-video. if the S-video cable is connected to my pc and I start my computer it just stay on black screen but if I remove the cable and restart the computer it works fine and I can reconnect the cable after wards and it works fine too.

I have a Inspiron 9200 that I purchased about 4.5 yrs ago and will be replacing it w/ a Studio 1555.
One of the main reasons is b/c there is something seriously wrong w/ the laptop where it goes extremely slow all of a sudden but especially with watching videos. I can barely watch videos on itunes since every starts going really slow. Playing videos using VLC player helps a lot but other task such as simply minimize a window takes forever. Another big problem is the fans. They are extremely loud when they turn on and the bottom of my laptop gets real hot. Im thinking this is a serious hardware problem since I've tried doing a fresh install of windows XP and i still have the same problems. My friend who knows a lot about computers opened my laptop about year and half ago and found a whole bunch of dusty balls in the fans. He took them out and my laptop fans were not loud anymore and my laptop was a little bit snappier but its gone back to its old ways. What I want to know is what are some possible explanations for the slow down.
Here are the specs for the Inspiron 9200
Pentium M 725 (1.60GHz)
17" UltraSharp Wide Screen XGA+ Display
512MB DDR 333MHz 2 DIMMS
128MB ATI Mobility Radeon 9700
40GB Ultra ATA Hard Drive
Windows XP SP2
8X DVD+/-RW Drive
Intel PRO/Wireless 2200 Internal Wireless (802.11 b/g 54Mbps)
53 WHr 6-Cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery

Is there any Wireless-N mini PCI cards which will work in the Dell 9200? If so, would I have to add a third antenna to make it work? Are there any walk through's or HOW TO's for this kind of upgrade, I've googled and there very little on this.

I know I am late to the party, but I finally replaced Core Duo
t2400 in my m1210 with Core2 Duo t7200. Why t7200 and not t7400 or t7600? Price/Performance.
I got t7200 on ebay for about $75, and hope to sell my t2400 for...whatever. So the price for this upgrade should be minimal. Plus t7400 or t7600 would run hotter. Giving my crazy existing temps it was a concern .....

One thing I'm surprised about this unit is how often the fan is going off, even when idling or doing normal internet browsing, and music listening.
My temperature hangs around 50*C - 60*C. This temperature range is okay for my lap as I live in Canada and the temperature will dip down a bit around winter time. But the thing is, I want it to be stabled out around 55*C with music playing and all that. In other words, I don't want the fan to go off ever 10-15mins. I like my laptop quiet, and the 700m did relatively a good job in this.
I'm using RMClock + i8k. RMClock is set to the lowest possible voltage going at 6x. It came with Vista, but I removed that crap and put XP Pro.
The laptop doesn't have a discrete video card as my purpose for this laptop is not for gaming (that's reserved for consoles). I need it to run application servers for local developments.

How do you suggest you do this apart from taking the keys off/taking apart the laptop? I've been going with blowing using my mouth and sucking using a vacuum cleaner, but the larger bits stay ...

after lots of considering and looking for alternatives I finally ordered a 2530p today. After all, I think this is the best notebook for me.
I never bought a computer where a full windows version is not available on CD and thus never had bad experience with lots of stuff preinstalled.
How bad are the 'extras' on HP business computers in Europe? And do you have any advice on how to clear the computer up and what to delete?
looking at the order sheet I'm a bit confused regarding the OS
OS: Vista Business wXPP OFC Ready 2530p O/S
Restore Media: DRDVD Win XP 2530p Recover Media
Restore Media: OSCD Windows XP Pro Media
My guess is that someone forgot to update the order website

The problem is, that my Aspire's screen keeps flickering and making weird waves and stuff. It basically makes text unreadable, and I almost can't see anything. To turn it somewhat normal, I turn down the light, but it's not working much. The text sometimes turns into different colors, Blue, green and red.

Is it normal that dell.ca would have fewer choices of screens than dell.com? I'm looking at the studio 15, and dell.com lists Hi Resolution/Bright,
glossy widescreen 15.4 WLED display (1440x900) as a choice, which is what I want, but dell.ca doesn't. When I view the system specs though, that choice is listed as on option.

my laptop vostro 3460 won't boot any more. When I turn it on it loads the Dell logo (I suppose it passes the POST) but then it just shows a black page. It could be anything, but I guess that it may have something to do with Windows 8 and the UEFI system. I also would be quite happy to install linux mint and get rid of Windows, but I don't know how to change the boot priority order.
So my questions are:
1 is it a hardware issue ? if not, can I solve my problem easily ?
2 how can I change the boot priority order, to install mint ?

when i first got my dell inspiron and it was all good. when i set the monitor to shut off after 1 minute of being idle, it did and would not turn on unless someone moved the mouse of pressed a button. however, after i reformatted, the computer monitor would shut off after 1 min but soon afterwards it turns on again by itself, then it goes off again, then it remains on permanently. i recently formatted my laptop again and this problem persists. anyone knows whats sup? im using xp ftw... and my configurations are the same as it was before the reformats so idk whats wrong.
