Dimension 2400 off / on switch

Dell is directing me towards a new bezel (which is out of stock). It is not clear to me that it includes the actual wired switch underneath - which is all I need. Any part numbers or suggestions?

  • feline007 Oct 31, 2008

    Thanks for your help. Months ago the on button in the bezel
    became difficult. I put a little shim inside and the button
    worked fine. Lately it got dicey again. With the bezel off,
    it works ok. Sometimes I have to push twice to start up - but not
    too cantankerous. When I shut down via restart, it start right up
    no problem. I assumed that the mechanical part of the button
    underneath , ie the one with the actual wires attached, is at
    fault. Maybe a spring getting is losing its tension. What
    do you think?

The Front Bezel DOES NOT contain the On/Off power switch. If you remove the side cover of the computer and look behind the Bezel, you’ll see a green bracket which contains the power switch. Don’t know the part number but here’s the link to your model:
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/dim2400/en/sm_en/index.htm
Just out of curiosity, what is the problem you’re having and what are the symptoms?
In 5 years of doing warranty home service for Dell I found only 1 power switch to be actually defective.

Thank You.

Dell dimension 2400 network adapter driver

The Dell Dimension 2400 drivers are available here: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/product/dimension-2400 . Use another computer to visit the site and make sure that Microsoft XP shows in the OS search drop down. Expand the section labeled Network. The wired network adapter is a Broadcom 4401. The direct link to the latest driver (V. 3.63 released 8/5/2003) page is http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails/Product/dimension-2400?driverId=R64645&osCode=WW1&fileId=2731129724&languageCode=en&categoryId=NI .

A more recent driver for XP is available from Broadcom at: http://www.broadcom.com/support/ethernet_nic/4401.php . Select the driver for the 32-bit version for XP.

I hope this helps.

Direct x9 is only showing 510 mgs of ram my system has 512mgs.I Formated my HD and down loaded the latest verison of Direct x and still only showing 510.My system is a Dell Dimension 2400.

2 megs of your ram have been diverted to Video. the 2400 has onboard intel video, and the BIOS of your system has seperated 2 megs from your system to operate the onboard GPU.
