so PC runs perfect right , just email bad. right? your browser can visit many websites ok? yes /no? if yes, good , if no, wifi is dead. fix WIFI forget email now. so can you login at life.com or not. live is both email and more even the cloud and the STORE. if only live fails ask MS to fix it. live is them, them only

that is hacking google to find the cure. they will charge you money dell will not help, now. with lost PW, those days ended that code above is the backdoor hint . so google Dell BIOS Backdoor Password learn to do that and pay the man.

we can not see your screen to help. we are blind in a text box. no photo posted of failing screens BIOS PW Windows PW what?

who are you addressing and out of context. post model of PC first the OS it runs then state a problem or upgrade question about a PC

bios or windows we can not see your screen or the 7 levels of PW this is hacking google it.

huh?

it's dead? well cold boot it, hold power button for 10 seconds and release

ask them your 3g? service provider and the HP hardware 3g does not work there. HP does not have that. let me be clear, ask the ISP. this. yours. ask them for the hardware to do that. most ISP only have few modems that do this and only theirs why not ask them , we in USA ,same answer. They have phone to call for support, so call them 3/4/5G call them. the Sim slot is only for the HP WWLAN card and only works with that card and that card is useless in Uganda, as is the HP sim slot, call them. here I am in USA and have T-mobile (example) i CALL THEM AND THEY TELL ME SORRY 5G LTE IS ONLY FOR YOUR CELL PHONE.! (later things can change) AND MEANS NO MODEMS SOLD OR RENTED TO ME.(for PC's) THERE ARE LIKE WHAT 10,000 ISP ON EARTH, NO 2 THE SAME NOR SAME MAP AREA COVERAGE. TOWN BY TOWN CALL THEM. sorry my crystal ball is fuzzy this week.

Make, model and OS used may help you get an answer.

Larry provides great information. Larry Ng Apr 30, 2022 good news the not told at all PC screen is not dead. a major fact but lacks all evidence like: 1, No PC told no OS told xp to w11 2: fans spin? all do, psu ,cpu and gpu card if fan. 3: Optiplex is a desktop 29 years of models made wow. 4: you mean Dell Splash logo. yes, and then it does the post bar, if post bar stalls that means hardware gross errors. sadly no PC model told of vast versions. wow. just wow hopeless that.? but is par here, and vast wrong answers just for that fact alone.even mine. i have many optiplex PC here old and new and my fav is 9020MT or smaller my oldest is 380(in storage) is your coin cell dead. (if yes can NOT be ignored) my dells all have F12 diagnostics, power on and hammer F12,, pick diag eSPA and run it older PCs dell if the HDD is dead the F12 diag is dead. due to being located there back long ago. my dells have a BIOS log page, go to BIOS the click tab, LOG read the logs. see what fails. (coin cell RTC sure)_ easy no?\ but why on earth post lacking the model number making any useful simple help 10 pages long for 29years of models. 1993 is the first OptiPlex, seen here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dell_OptiP... nobody can guess and no era is the same. evolution max. ..

the coin cell batter is dead. that means save button in Bios 100% dead. on all PCs made for 40 years 29years of optiplex. 780 is 2012, so not true that. 2 years old can not make means what? cant see all BIOS pages or can not use the save button ok is BIOS ADMIN PW enabled ? using keyboard are you? is this your first time in bios every on any PC . if yes read the screen prompts carefully if page 1 , set BIOS defaults falls in any way say so is PC just bought used dead, and coin cell missing inside if BIOS defaults fails that means page security ignored by you and passwords were set by others.

open lid remove cables from HDD if is with factory caddy it just slides out (blue caddy) move plastic tabs of caddy inward and it just slidesout some PC were modified here and I can not see yours now.

2009 PC IT IS. coin cell should be good unplug pC from wall Let it sit dead for 1hr. (this drains all caps to zero volts DC) a goal here. now wall power back AC turn it on, and power led goes green and all fans spin (all ) and DVD tray can eject with finger there. does not beep , has lots of codes in the manual still free at DELL. and the 4 led status (stealth) shows what? page24 in service manual shows these 4 LED binary post errors the 4 leds only go full out if OS is booted

2007pc NOW 7 YEARS OLD AND COIN CELL DEAD IS #1 op the manual on your PC is free to read and covers power lamp codes. for sure orange blinks or now the ornage my mean in sleep mode I have 755 here is mothballs. page 153 here (15 seconds to find and read that) it means power failure . https://dl.dell.com/Manuals/all-products/esuprt_desktop/esuprt_optiplex_desktop/optiplex-755_user's%20guide_en-us.pdf?ref=supp_lithium NEW COIN CELL REMOVE ALL AC POWER TO PC FOR 1HOUR. LINE CORD TO WALL. REMOVED THEN PUT THAT BACK AND PUSH POWER BUTTON FOR 10 SECONDS. POWER LED GOES GREEN NOW? ALL FANS WORK MONITOR WAKES UP?

unlock my screen what screen? not told thus no answers for 7 long years. No PC TOLD NO OS TOLD NO SCREEN SHOWN FAIL STRIKE 3/? HINT We can not see over your shoulder.,,,

push the physical cd drive try button marked EJECT the PC must be running, or use the paper clip hole trick. (if PC is dead or tray jammed) google that. clip trick the dell manuals covers this

ok, I'll bite ( saying you the eject button is dead or what?)_

1. it must have a DVD drive.
2. the drive must not be bad
3. the 2 cables must both be connected.! 15pin power and Sata both ends.
4. The PC power button light glows correctly.
5. The BIOS does not have SATA ports disabled (common)
6. The PsU MUST BE Running its fans and all fans spin. !!!
7. PC must not beep.(codes)
8. if all that looks good the eject works now. does it"?

It's a d505 (year 2003 a new record here for RELIC MAX)wow. 12years old 2015 asked.THE HDD MAY BE BAD WE TEST THAT FIRSTAND ALL BATTERIES MUST BE GOOD TOO. We run the HDD SMART TEst.if smart fails no OS on earth runs on any bad HDDand most are dead/failed at 5 years old on laptops.sorry you did not run that PC for 12 years and failed just nowno you did notyou bought a dead old useless PC. there is no real cure as any modern safe OS fails on it.buy PC with i3 CPU or up, and win.end 2003 junk now.
