I have a Dell Optiplex Gx 150 PIII PC. Its service tag # is 9MSMQ01. Can anybody tell me if this Dell uses a strange pinout on the mobo plug? Right now I have a plain aftermarket PSU in it and it runs fine. I'm going to buy a good PSU for it soon and I guess I need to know if I have a strange pinout.

There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.

Re: Strange Dell Pinouts
Found this page with the GX150 listed:
http://www.power-on.com/atx250dl.html
Also found this, listed as having adapters to change the pinout:
http://www.power-on.com/dell250x.html
So looks like the GX150 is ATX, but I would read up just to be sure. Too bad Dell had to do that with some models.
Anyone know if the Poweredge 1300 and 300 use a special power supply? They appear to be 24 pin. -

Re: Strange Dell Pinouts
because they want to keep it "in house" I suppose
A lot at one point or another do this....its a danger for those that assume that big names will follow conventional specs as laid down...think they have woken up a bit here but Apple is another to watch out for ...it may look like an ATX but its not wired to the standard
So anything from the big names in the past (and possibly present in apples case) I would check to be sure.
Dont relay on wire colour either as being a true guide to voltage etc
Yeah Gal the pinout RU is a good site
at lest someones tried to put them all together on one site for reference.
Just my thoughts

Re: Strange Dell Pinouts
From what I understand, all of the newer Dell desktops are ATX standard.
That Russian site does have Dell pinouts. jonnyGURU offered that link last year.Comment

My question pertains to understanding the control circuity inside a Dell PT434 type battery used in Dell E6400, E6410 and other Dell notebooks?
Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the inside of a Dell PT434 battery and/or a description of how the control lines work to control this battery?
My reason for asking is I have a battery which I cannot get to charge beyond 1% in a Dell E6410 or E6400.
The LED bar graph charge indicator on the battery shows one LED lighted when the info button is pressed.

Hello. I have an Inspiron 7501 here, it's the same as a Vostro 7500 in some markets (no clue). I was looking to replace the LCD, the panels included with these models are terrible.
I have the schematic and it is a 4 lane eDP port on the board but the pinout seems quite weird, my question is if anyone recognises this weird pinout and knows of any other Dell models that may use it or even any compatible panel models. I have the 40-40pin cable that was used for the models with touch but do not need touch capability, was just looking for a better quality screen and higher refresh to actually...10-02-2024, 04:54 PM -

I have a Dell Latitude 5530 with a damaged RJ45 network connector. See the attached pictures.
Have already searched on Farnell / Aliexpress / Ebay and had contact with several suppliers on Aliexpress and Ebay, but they cannot deliver this connector.
Is there someone inside the EU, who has these connector(s) or perhaps defective motherboard(s) for these laptop models I have mentioned in the topic title.

Hello!
I have a problem with a Dell G5 SE 5505 laptop that I hope someone can give me a few pointers on.
[OK, it's not really a laptop, I'm running the motherboard on my desktop with only cooling, RAM and an M2 drive attached.]
I had some performance issues, so I decided to update my BIOS from 1.7.0 to the latest version, 1.20.0.
The computer restarted and the update dit not want to continue without a battery connected, even though I used dell's method of bypassing this requirement.
I tried updating to a custom BIOS from Reddit user Satori_Nori https://www...
