    Sorry if I'm being thick but, do you need to have a broadband modem to be able to get online with this pc? :-/


    No, but it does not have a built-in modem. You can either buy a modem card for a few pounds or buy an external modem. The machine will work perfectly well with either a dial-up modem or adsl.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    As an alternative, you can try code d1121h. This gives the same PC but minus the monitor, at £199 incl vat and del. Not as good value probably, but some people have a monitor lying around doing nothing.

  • Thank you just what the doctor ordered, my parents were after a cheap machine just for internet and home so just the ticket after missing the last one.

    This PC comes without speakers but Aldi are selling a set of speakers from 25th Nov for £5-99.
    They are also selling a wireless keyboard and mouse for £14-99.
    If you deduct the mouse and keyboard from the Dell offer it should take it well below the £200 mark.

    Seems site won`t allow deducting mouse and key,speakers still a good buy though.

    Don't forget to get the speakers and modem if needed, as these are not included in this particular package.

    Can anybody tell me what graphics card you get with this machine? I couldn't find it stated anywhere.
    And could I add my cd/rw and dvd player, and/or hard drive from my old pc to this machine easily?

    Cd/DVD writers are very easy to install.
    Anyone wanting new ones,don't upgrade via Dell,buy them from ebuyer and save £££££££££'s.

    I second Bennnneb's questions? how easy is it to transfer the contents of my exisiting hard drive to the Dell hard drive?

    can anyone provide a guide for 'dummies' or point me in the direction of a site that might help me.

    Same goes for the cd-burner and my modem.

    thanks
