    Optiplex 980 m/b died...need to re-use my ssd


    After my Optiplex 980 m/b died, I tried to install my old ssd running Windows 10 home(build 1909) into a Optiplex 9020 system I bought from a surplus store with no HD's. I can't get it to recognize the drive...In bios, I don't know if should choose legacy boot or uefi boot. How can I still use my SSD? Thanks

    :)

  2. Dell Optiplex 980 failure

    I have a Dell Optiplex 980 that was running for years with no problem. Now it crashed, it won't start and the diagnostic digits 1 and 3 are flashing on the front panel. Is there something I can do? Can I at least save the data on the HDD?

    When I google about the diagnostic codes for digits 1 and 3 is says either RAM or motherboard failure. Is it possible to know what to do?
