Many thank for the install of a SSD. I have been having an issue printing from the computer (dell OptiPlex 780 runs great!). I get white vertical line across the printed page. I went though every diagnosis that would cause it to be a printer issue, Cartridges, new cable. My last thought was to print directly to the printer (HP envy 5530). Guess what happened? No lines, picture was perfect. I even place a new picture onto the computer, printed from the computer, line are back, print directly (over wifi) not issue. This has been an issue for about a month. Black and white documents no issue. I've tried in every other usb port no change. I did notice the wifi direct print prints at a slower pace, computer print will be fast and with lines. I'm really stuck. Any help would be greatfull!

There was not much of any solutions for this issue. Most searches came up with printers that do it, which are fairly easy to diagnose, but no computer issues creating the vertical lines. The only way to test my " it's the computer doing it" theory was to borrow a printer that I know works just fine and try that. The results were that it is in fact, somehow the USB ports, yes i tested all of them like before, connected to another printer created the same vertical lines down every print. I did a direct print as I did with my own and it printed just fine. All devices work through all of the USB ports, but just don't print through them. So buddy, that is the conclusion. My Dell OptiPlex 780 that runs like a top has a USB port issue when printing. Comments are always welcome ....

@HaisteComputerRepair
@HaisteComputerRepair Жыл бұрын
You can install Windows 10 again via USB after you install the SSD, if you like. If you have access to another computer and ability to connect both the old HDD/SSD from the 780 and the new SSD to it (usually via usb connection, or internally via sata connection if possible) you can use a program like Macrium Reflect to clone the old HDD to the new SSD. Does that make sense? Let me know if you need any help or clarification.

I'm sorry to ask you again. What causes a HDD Hard Drive to fail or die? Thank you.
@HaisteComputerRepair
@HaisteComputerRepair 4 жыл бұрын
It could be any number of things. A quick tip, though: if the operating system is still loading, but it's slow, missing features, or causing blue screens, it may be easy to salvage by simply formatting and wiping the drive best you can. Maybe running some diagnostic software to find out why it's failing to do something before trying to use it again. If nothing happens at all and you can't hear any of the discs spinning, it may need professional service if it can be salvaged at all. Here's a Wikipedia page for reference: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_failure

For the graphics card? They installed automatically. You can also download them manually online. Are you using the same card?

@@matiaspraderi1417 Are you installing Windows 10? Generally, Windows will search for and install the necessary drivers during a fresh install. Or if you install components and hardware with Windows currently installed, you can press the Windows key on the keyboard, type "update" and click on "check for updates." If this doesn't have favorable results, go to the manufacturer website for whatever hardware or component you are working with an download drivers. This can usually be found by searching on Google. Ex: "Radeon HD 6450 Drivers." This is an easy process once you get used to it. Be brave and dive in!

@@splat2glitcher Are you certain? Perhaps if there are models that take DDR3 RAM. Check out this documentation, for reference. It states up to 8GB. www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/optix/en/optiplex_780_tech_guidebook_en.pdf I'm not saying you're wrong, but I personally haven't tried and adhered to documentation in the past before purchasing.

@@farishlobster Gotcha. I think it might be pretty hard to find just the I/O shield portion of the case. I might be wrong as I only worked on this tower for the video, but other models of optiplex released around this time had the shield built into the case. Can you confirm this? It looks like it in the video and to my recollection, but it has been a year and I could be wrong.
