We recently bought another tower from a government surplus store for my husband. He only plays his online games and it is enough for what he does. This last one we bought a couple years ago and was still running. It was just running so slow and starting to lock up at times on him so we went and got another one at $50 ..... how could one go wrong. This week we purhcased a Optiplex GX620 from that store. We have XP professional we put on it for the operating system....we may upgrade to 7 but not sure yet. However, we had to use an old Linksys eternet card to get the internet going. It has a Magjack eternet port in it model #0862-1J1T-G3-F and then it has another number on it #0619 WM. We have looked for a driver for it but have came up empty even on Dell's website. Can anyone help provided a free downloadable driver for it? Any and all help is greatly appreciated. I am definitely no computer expert but I know some things ..... I am more of a user than a fixer but I am trying lol.
His old computer was running on 512 of ram which was probably one of the reasons it was running slow, the memory and/or slots were not working properly. He had memory sticks in them but one was not seated all the way and the other two wouldn't fit if he wanted them to. This computer has 1,024 ram in it which I am going to try and upgrade for him. The memory sticks from the other computer would not fit. So, I am going to try and find him either all new sticks of memory to upgrade it to the full 4 gb that it can take.....or at least two more sticks of 512 if I can find them. Currently it has two sticks of HYS64T64000HU-3.7-a.....512MB 1RX8 PC2-4200U-444-11-A1. We ran a scan on crucial.com and found it uses: DDR2 PC2-5300 DDR2 (NON ECC). If anyone has any thoughts or wisdom to offer, I am willing to listen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really want to find 4 sticks of 1gb so it will do better for him, but need to find them at a bargain. This is the best we could do for now since he is disabled, I'm working my ass off at one full-time job and a side part time job, and I am helping to support my adult daughter and her two kids that live with us. So, I need kind and knowledge free help lol. Thank you in advanced.
