I have a old Dell xp, atleast 7 years old. Is any Dell tower compatable with the old monitor and keyboard and speakers? HELP please

Unless you have some special speakers all computer spekaers and monitors will connect with the new and newer systems... you may have an issue with the monitor as most current systems have dropped the old VGA pin connector in favor a the new DVI/HDMI connections... so worst case you have to buy a cheap converter or invest in a new monitor... your eyes will appreciate that!

Pretty much. The one thing to look is the interface on keyboard and mouse. Most Dell towers utilize USB connections (not PS2). Are your old components USB?

I had an older Dell GX 270; a durable machine. I bought a new Dell 745 Optiplex and mouse, keyboard and external speakers were all compatible.

It should be fine. I bought an Dell 745 Optiplex and I had no problem with any of my older items. Hooked up and running with no problems.

If your Dell Motherboard supports 400Mhz memory you are ok. Check you pc max of memory for you model see in dell.com 400 and 333 Mhz are compatible.it will work a little faster than the units you replaced.

No, Your dell uses pc2-6400 and only supports a maximum of 4gb of ram.. The best upgrade for an older laptop is an ssd hard drive upgrade. It will run almost as fast as a new new laptop. You can pick up a 128gb for 50 or a 240gb for around 100. You will have to reinstall windows, but believe me it's definitely worth it. I would recommend 2gb of ram as well.

more than likely, NO... it was purchased specifically for an old dell desktop... it is NOT a usb connection for one thing.. most new pc's only have usb connections... this is a parallel port connection. But, for my purposes which was to replace a monitor that had crapped out... it worked great!

I am not familiar with the Dell specs, but just make sure it supports SATA drives, for the physical connection. If you are using a current OS (Windows 7 or better) then you should be okay. At worse you may need a driver or firmware update.

I have no idea. Dell was proprietary with parts so I assume no. I put this in a Dell XPS 400 which was released around 2005. You might be able to get an answer from Dell. Get the number off of your motherboard and google it. The number is usually between the PCI headers. Sorry.

It won't work with it. Dell site lists your graphics as Intel HD 3000 or 4000 which means your CPU (processor) is powering your graphics aka "on board graphics. This monitor does not work with on board graphics. You need one of dedicated graphics card listed (or better) in description of this monitor.

Hey Von, Good luck on your up grade. This RAM worked great on a DELL that I pick up out of the trash. Installed a new hard drive, Windows 7, an cheep video card and it turned out to be a decent PC. I have put together a number of computers and give them away to seniors to learn on. Good luck, Ed

Check the manufacturers specifications for your model.Early on Dell went against standards and some model incompatible with a standard ATX P.S.If a more recent model more likely O.K.

T. Jackson I'm not sure if your computer has DDR3 ram it should work. look it up on goggle and Dell page. You have to check what your windows handle as well

Yes I am using it on a Dell PC but you have to open up the tower to see if it fits and the shape of your tower works with it. Make sure where you plug in the cables is on the outside of the tower once you put it in. Make sure that you have aPCI port.

Find model of your motherboard, go online to manufacturers site and read thru the specifications to learn what type and brands of memory they support. Most of the memory makers also offer compatibility information on their sites. Personally I find that Dell, HP and others make the computers so its impossible to upgrade from what they built. Depending on age of your's and the OS you may be better off with a new tower. XP Support ends in April 2014 so unless your upgraded to Win 7 thats another item to consider..... Good Luck

Running with Windows 7 so I'm not sure. It should be or should have a compatible driver - you can check the Dell site to see if there's a driver to know before hand.
