Re: Dell specs

What do you actually need to know? If you are running the Dell right now you can get a breakdown of the info via your service tag number.

Re: Dell specs

Not all NICs power down when PCs are shutdown. You could try a program called everest for a full breakdown of what is in your PC.

Re: Dell specs

I'll double check tomorrow when I'm in work but I don't think you can completely turn off the NIC on the Dimension models. You can disable it in the BIOS but it will still get some power going to it.

Is there any specific reason why you want it off?
