  • QuestionCan this support 3 monitors?

    Asked by Tyler.

    • Answer I'm bringing mine back because you need a special wires to connect the monitor and a monitor that takes the special wires. Guess I could upgrade, but I'll just bring it back and get something I like, wanted to go a little cheap but by the time I buy everything I need to use it would be cheaper to buy a better one which I should have done to start, Dell support was no help at all

  • QuestionHow can I transfer my data from my old computer to a new one? Can I have Mircosoft Office instaleed on the new one?

    Asked by lin.

    • Answer I did my own transferring from my old computer to my new computer. Get a portable hard drive or large-capacity portable SSD or flash drive. (I had a 2TB portable HD, but anything 512GB or larger will do.) Copy/paste anything from your old computer which can't easily be downloaded or installed from a CD-ROM/DVD-ROM to the portable storage medium. Then attach the portable storage medium to the Dell tower AFTER basic setup is complete, and copy/paste from the portable storage medium to the Dell tower. Just make sure you're copy/pasting to the equivalent of where you were used to accessing things on your old computer. (F.ex., Documents should be copy/pasted to Documents, anything which was in Program Files x86 should be copy/pasted to Program Files x86, etc.) If your old computer was pre-Windows 11, download current drivers for any peripherals such as printers, rather than installing old drivers from a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM. I was able to install an old version of MS Word from the original media (don't recall if it was a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM) without any problems. You will get "encouraged" to spring for an MS Office 365 subscription during the hardware setup (a trial version is pre-installed). If you're comfortable with the MS Office version you were using on your old computer, though (and for which you still have the original discs), go ahead and install that; you'll be fine.

  • QuestionCan you add a slave, or storage drive internally

    Asked by RedskinRobbie.

    • Answer The stock system has 1 undedicated SATA signal port, with corresponding single power port on the power supply, and appears to have a single mounting spot (space where 4 screws line up to 3.5 inch disk mount points) inside. There's room for more, but no provision for any more (physical mount, nor available SATA connections, though you certainly could add a pci-e SATA card and a SATA power pigtail to the power supply, but you'd have to improvise a way to mount that 2nd physical drive. Of course if you don't need optical drive you can remove it and use that location for a 2nd 3.5 inch drive. Too bad; the 512MB SSD could get filled pretty quickly, I wish they'd allowed for at least 2 other 3.5 inch drives. I like to have a backup drive plus a large mechanical drive for large files in addition to the SSD.

  • QuestionIs the power supply adequate for an added graphic card?

    Asked by Roba.

    • Answer Not really. The power supply that comes with this PC is only 180w and does not come with any cables to power a decent graphics card. It can do something like a GT 1030 (which doesn’t require an extra power cable) but not an RTX 3050 (which does)

  • Questionmy old computer has a vga port and hdmi port. Does this system come with any cables or what would I need to hook up this new computer with my monitor?

    Asked by patsy.

    • Answer No cables came with my new computer. I wrongly assumed that I could use the cable that connected my old computer with my relatively new Dell monitor. Nope -- I had to return to Best Buy and buy a new cable. I took my computer and monitor into the store and stood by while the Geek Squad connected the new cable to make sure it worked. Good thing I did, because the first one they tried did not work. Neither did the second one. The third one was the charm.
