-Can you please tell me if you can put 4 GB RAM in this computer and how to do it. I only have two places to put RAM cards and I'm wondering if I can put two cards of 2 GB DDR2 each. Can I also change the processor because I have one that is 2.8 GHZ. Thank you for your help.

[IanasAnd]

GX 270 has mather board problems ( CONDENSATOR PROBLEMS )

THE GX 240, 260, 270, 280 HAS THE SAME SHAPE / CASE THE SAME, exapt the insides :)

[Renton0]

The motherboard was the problem for this Fan Problem

[awongbr]

From what can be seen the processor is a pIII and can´ be a gx280....maybe a gx 150....you may see the model on the board!!!

[lilblueguy]

Wow you tard read around the power button probably a GX280

[DRUMS1234]

what computer shcool did you go to !!!!

[WindsorFox]

Very rare Dell??? We have probably a million of them in three different sizes where I work. Optiplex models have the model printed on the ring around the power button. And cablesnmor fan prices are high not to mention discontinued. Outletpc has much better prices.

[lansing2008]

go to google

[Protoking]

This is not your "typical" computer.

It's a small form factor pc in dell's "optiplex" business line.

[SenseOfJustice]

good advertising

GET A NEW FAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[musicman0150]

It wasn't worth getting a fan for this unit due to its age. This unit was a used unit that had some other minor problems and the client had used it for quite awhile not realizing the fan was bad so rather than taking the chance in something else go wrong, the client has a better computer.

[ca33p]

BTW..this dell model is part of the GX series. Either GX150,240,260 or 270 SFF. You can find the model number where the power button is located.

[musicman0150]

Thank you very much for the information. Your reply is greatly appreciated. Thank you. I'll put a note in the video description saying that the model number has been identified.

[DJmantis11]

@ca33p Its a GX280 not 270

[siddallOVmanny]

nice vid i av a Q i have 2 hard disk drives and 1 has win xp , now i want to use the win xp 1 but i have took it out of another computer , is it possible to use the win xp hard drive without re-installing win xp ,every time i fit the hdd as master my pc comes on with the blck screen and white txt and then it says start windows normally n i press it but my computer jus restarts and takes me back to the screen where it reads all the drives can u help? i would be grateful if u could thnx wb

[musicman0150]

You can use the XP hard drive if it is a Genuine installation, meaning that it is not an OEM version. If you have an OEM version, then that could be the problem because the current Windows sees the hardware as a totally different PC (i.e. Gateway to a DELL). You may have to re-install the Windows XP software, but do not re-format the drive, this way you can retrieve the current files that you have. If any more problems, please feel free to ask more questions. Hope that helps.
