This is basic troubleshooting. First without any information, when is the last time you cleaned the inside of the computer, and do all the fans work? I once had a computer start doing this, it was from over heating. Let's start there. It could be one of thousands of things that have gone wrong. Next, is there a reason why it was not updated?

Remove or unplug the soundbar from the system and restart the computer. Reconnect the soundbar and check that the LED is lit. If the soundbar does not connect, see if it is listed in Windows Device Manager. Swap the USB soundbar to another USB port.

jacker same PC? the coin cell battery RTC is dead, and can not be ignored like that ever. Dell Dimension 4300 Bios A06 Intel 845 chipset relic. P4 (400hz /2Ghz max) not told by all, buy a dead PC did you?, or dumpster dived it ?? when did PC laST RUN Perfectly not told, at all, wow, history ZERO 000000000 F9xxxxxxxxx is firmware, above F8xxxxxxxxxx or failed out of the blue and casing never opened by you? (messed with) rules of RAM, DDR. a 2001, (no typo) relic and useless PC for sure. no modern OS runs here.!!!! those are POST errors for DDR1 banks. 2 slots of ram. DDR1 old not new with ******* high density ram. test them 1 by 1 , at a time in bank 0, channel A slot???????? 512 MB max per slot, so , 2 slots are 1GB max. per the manual I read to you PC133 (non-ECC or ECC) and not Registered, RAM, SDRAM only , buffered. the ram must be in matched sets, same SKU means same exact P/N# intel and dell told you that and MMC is intels chip. The bios must like any ram you buy, MUST. this mobo has 4 LED panel for 4 bit binary POST errors what does the 4 LED codes show. 4 yellow is bad bios, means cannot finish POST and more. in the free manual this relic has no VGA port on mobo at all that means only a PCI video card is allowed, to get video that means it can fail when it tries to steal, VRAM from DDR1 bank. sure can , try other VGA cArd? oops wrong this PC has AGP slot and we all know from 2001 year 1/2 the AGP 4x cards made do not work here, only DELLs list , work. 4x/2x modes at 1.5 V , using 3.3v AGP card will blow up(smoke) some dual voltage cards do work but only in DELLS LIST 32bit only. we all hated AGP then , it is a huge horror. then. PCI video works better. try one for $5 used, PCI not PCI-express does not fit here. as you can see I can not see your PC and all things connected no what VGA card you have exactly and matters first. VRAM issues. reading old dell form real posts at dell 1. 6200 nVidia AGP for basic work, light low level settings in games. 2. 6600 nVidia AGP for mid to low end gaming. 3. 6600 GT AGP, good over all lower mid level card for gaming, that would be my least choice for your system. 4. 7600 GS AGP, for lower mid level gaming 5. 7600 GT AGP, for a good over all card for your system and power supply. do not attempt OC, overclocking or it will fail this $9 at flea bay, 10 times PCs value. 21 years old

Hi there, Have you tried using VLC player? http://gofree.com/download/Video/Media-Players/vlcmediaplayer.php?gclid=CO6F9b62l6kCFcK8KgodrnOGvw VLC will play almost any video. If VLC doesn't it may be safe to say your video is corrupted. Alex

dell.com go there , it is there and is free

this makes zero sense. 1: posts where , not told 2: games what games where local , or at steam or where? 3: what plugins where? not told tell what you are attempting to do , and where.using what. no PC told NO OS told no problem clearly stated (sad face)

well get the driver from Puppy no PC told at all , making any answer impossible and no wireless card full p/N told. oops dells can have 3 or more card choices new or like mine have modern 801.11ax card here wifi6 and only my intel.com driver worsk the driver is a 3way match. OS, CARD and on laptops more, (more is control buttons working) dell does not block cards at all ,like nasty HP does, dell is bliss. nobody can guess what card you have, Impossible.

guild? ahhhhh GUIDE ! dell.com go there get it. no PC told no model. just dell, vast models exists. no 2 the same dell.com enter service tag RTM

this is hacking now dell told you NO ! so you think we are hackyah.com learn to google hacks no PC told at all but seems like a laptop asking for backdoor PW so google the correct way google "Dell bios back door password" do it and pay the man. pay them. end. it.

no PC told, no OS told age matters. you do not use this PC every day then forget if HDD PW as set? did kid play on moms PC and wreck it. on old PCs over 7 years old the COIN cell is dead(battery) and now BIOS lies to you in vast and random ways, due to that fact. no PC told no exact answers possible. blind

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.
