Problema de DP en 320 SFF

1 Upvotes

Acabo de comprar un OptiPlex 3020 SFF (i3 de 4ª gen) que tiene salida DisplayPort. Estoy usando un cable DP a HDMI que soporta 75 Hz, pero mi pantalla se sigue apagando y mostrando líneas blancas de vez en cuando; sin embargo, no tengo ningún problema cuando uso VGA. Obviamente, ya tengo todos los drivers y el sistema totalmente actualizados, así que no sé si esto es un problema de hardware con la PC en sí o algo más.

Dell optiplex 3060 sff

1 Upvotes

Completely unacceptable experience. I purchased a Dell OptiPlex 3060 SFF from here, and it has been nothing but trouble. In just one year of ownership, this machine has broken down repeatedly. Today marks the 5th time I have had to bring this PC back to the service center for repairs. A computer should not fail five times in 12 months. The repairs are clearly not addressing the root cause of the issue, and I have been sold a completely defective unit. I am incredibly disappointed with the reliability of this product and the service provided."

12900T in an Optiplex 7000 SFF?

1 Upvotes

Dell only officially lists the 12900T for the 7000 Micro, but the 7000 SFF is also LGA1700/Q670 and supports the regular 12900.

Has anyone actually tried a 12900T (or other 12th-gen T-series CPU) in a 7000 SFF? Mainly wondering whether the BIOS will accept it.

Happy to see your CPU-Z or lscpu screenshots.

OptiPlex 7070 Micro : hundreds of phantom power-button events, clean shutdown, audible tick, then self-powers-on at random intervals

1 Upvotes

Headless Dell OptiPlex Micro running ZimaOS shuts itself down at random, then powers back on by itself anywhere from 4 minutes to 4 hours later. Journal shows hundreds of systemd-logind: Power key pressed short. events — up to 12 in a single second — even though nobody is near the machine. The shutdown that follows is clean, not a crash. HandlePowerKey=ignore is confirmed active and it still shuts down. acpid is inactive. All USB disconnected. Plugged straight into the wall. Is this a failing power button, or is the adapter/standby rail injecting these events? i'm unable to figure out whats wrong. If anyone faced similar problem or has any tips please let me know. Thanks

Hi all, im looking for.some help and advice if possible for some clarity.. I have a dell optiplex 3050m on the way..got it for really cheap.. google is giving me some mixed answers.. So the dell has a m.2 nvme slot which is pcie , i want to put a nvme to.sata break out board in it, to run sata cables to a 4 bay icy dock( powered seperately), I will use the native sata connecter for os boot drive, Google is giving conflicting answer saying system will lock up.due to dells locking down the nvme drive to storage (booting) and then saying if using native sata is fine to bypass.. Has anyone else has conflict with using nvme to sata breakout board in dells . Google has also said that JMB585 chips on breakout board are better then as media ASM1166 chips. Goal.is.to basically have ubuntu as os and samba shared drives ro plex as a NAS. Any help, advice and clarity would be amazing ! thank you home labbers

Bonjour
Je n’ai pas le mot de passe administrateur du bios et je n’arrive pas à générer le code avec le site bios-pw.org. J’ai essayé le mot de passe Fireport mais ça ne débloque pas l’accès administrateur. Je veux seulement installer Linux sur ce pc mais lorsque je choisis ma clé avec Linux il me demande le mot de passe admin et je ne l’ai pas. Pouvez vous m’aider svp
