Precision M6500 blinking lights when pressing power button
My old precision M6500 was turned on then it shutdown without any warnings.
My battery was dead since a while ago, the battery light was blinking all the time but I did not care about using the battery.
Now if I press the power button the battery light above the keyboard and on the left side rapidly blink orange for about 2-3 seconds.
If I remove the battery and press the power button it does the same.
I tried removing the battery and pressing the power button for 30 seconds without battery. Then I pugged the power cord and pressed the power button but still the same blinking.
Is there a way to force it on or is completely dead?

Dell XPS screen issues
Hi all,
I have a 2016 Dell XPS 13 9350 Signature Edition laptop purchased about a month ago.
I have recently had a variety of issues, all happening intermittently. There does not seem to be any real pattern to these issues. I am considering returning the laptop, given the frequency of problems. These issues include:
- Laptop turns on, with power running, but screen will not light up (especially when opening from sleep/hibernate mode
- Laptop turns on, then turns off after 5 seconds
- Front LED flashes 1 white, 2 yellow
- screen is black the entire time
In the past, I was getting issues with sleep, but I have not seen these issues come up in a week since I updated all my drivers.
- Laptop will not sleep when lid is closed (even with the appropriate lid settings), ends up getting very hot in a bag
- Laptop will not sleep at all - seems to turn back on right after it enters sleep
Here's my specs:
- Dell XPS 9350 Signature Edition with Touch Screen
- OS: Windows 10 Education Edition
- CPU: Intel Core i7-6500U CPU 2.5 GHz
- RAM: 8 GB

Dell Inspiron 15-5547 won't turn off without forcing it to. Why?
Hi,
I have a Dell Inspiron 15-5547, and as the title states it will not completely shut down. I have tried a Reset (Windows 10), and it did not solve the issue.
My guess is what is causing this issue to happen is the new Samsung EVO SSD I installed around the same time this started happening. But why would this cause the problem? I'm in another country now- It is extremely hard to return these things.
What happens is this: We turn it off normally, shutting it down completely (Not hibernate) and the backlights on the keyboard remain lit. We then have to hold the power button until it actually shuts down.
If we didn't know about this issue or forget, this causes the laptop battery to die overnight, which can't be good for the battery. In fact, that's what happened. I thought the problem was that the laptop was turning itself on, but it seems to be the opposite- It doesn't turn off. Now, here and there this does not happen. Sometimes it does turn off normally.
Any suggestions? Is this really because of the SSD?
Windows 10 Anniversary, 8 GB RAM, Intel Core i5 4th Generation, 500 GB Samsung EVO SSD

Precision 3510 CPU Stuck at 0.75 Ghz
Hi all,
I recently purchased a Dell Precision 3510 with an I7 6700HQ CPU.
My problem is that the CPU seems to be stuck at 0.75 Ghz and it doesn't seem to go over 30% load. When reaches 30 % in load (and there it stays) might go up to 0.78 Ghz, but that's not happening every time.
Did a few tests while playing a few games, on battery and while charging, and on different power plans: Dell and performance. Did not activate the profiles provided by Dell regarding the power optimization.
The only time I managed to get it over 30% in load, happened when I disabled the Intel Speedstep feature from Bios. It was running indeed at 2.6 Ghz, but everything seemed to be..chaotically.
I'm not sure if this is the way it should be. Does anyone else have this problem?

Dell Inspiron 15 7559 Battery Problems or So I think
I just bought a new Dell Inspiron 15 7559 a month ago. The first week it was amazing with no problems at all.
Then when I was working on it, left it plugged in and left is for a while, then came back to it after 1 hour or so, I noticed that the battery was discharging.
Did not mind it until it went to "plugged in, charging" 0% and it shut off completely.
I tried to turn it on several times and it did not turn on.
Called Dell service center and advised to remove the battery. I cannot remove the battery completely because of the screw type but managed to remove the cables.
I turn it back on and it worked again. But after a few days the probem kept recurring.
Its going like "plugged in, charging" but it is not charging. Or "1 hour 05minutes to full charge" but after an hour it will be "1 hour 40minutes to full charge". I mean what gives.
Have done all that was advised in the internet but not hing is working.
I have done restart task manager, uninstall API, and all that, but the problem is recurring.
BIOS was updated recently also. So is it hardware of software.
Please help for anymore ideas?
Its brand new, it rocks when it is working, but I dont have the patience to kept on checking for hte battery status. It is getting annoying also.
Thank you.

The AC power adapter type cannot be determined. Inspiron 15 3542
Hello, from few days a have problem with my AC power adapter.
My system says: "The AC power adapter type cannot be determined... lalalala" when my Windows says Plugged in, not charging. CPU performance does not exceed 0,78GHz.
I tried to uninstall the drivers - nothing.
I tried update my BIOS - nothing.
Replace AC - nothing
Exclude malfunctioning AC adapter.
Sometimes after a few connections begins to charge my battery, and it is a day where you do not try to charge.
But I found a solution, which is always charge my battery.
when i turn off the system, and then pulled out the battery. I push the button 'power on' for 10 seconds. And then I put back the battery and plug the charger. I turn on the system and everything works.
But once again, disconnect and plug the charger that stops charging
Where is the problem?

Inspiron 7559 Power Status Light Blinks
Just since yesterday my six week old Inspiron 7559 sometimes fails to start and when it does this, the Power and Battery Status Light blinks, two times amber then seven times white, repeats forever. What does this 2/7 blink mean? Is it a clue to what is wrong? The laptop does start sometimes if I hold it at an angle. Makes me think something is not connected properly inside. Any ideas?

Inspiron 1520 CPU running at half speed
I have a Inspiron 1520 with a CPU running at half speed. I thought the original CPU, a Core 2 Duo T5450, was failing, as it was running at 1 to 1.2 GHz and it should be 1.6 MHz. I replaced it with a T8300 2.4 GHz, which now runs at 1.2 to 1.6 GHz.
I don't see anything in the BIOS that could change it. I'm going to try and flash the BIOS (it is at the newest version).
Anything else I can check?

Dell XPS 13 (2013) doesn't load past Dell splash screen
Hi Guys
I recently purchased a second hand XPS 13 and everything has been running fine until this morning.
I ran ADWCleaner for general maintenance, the machine rebooted and loaded back into Windows without issue.
Shortly after, the laptop started beeping over and over again. I tried rebooting only to find that the laptop won't load Windows and doesn't load past the Dell splash screen. There is no beeping during bootup.
Also, I am load to setup or boot selection screens after pressing F2 or F12. The laptop appears to register if I have selected one of those two options but will not load after the Dell screen progress bar has reached 100%
I have stumbled across a couple of posts on the internet suggesting that the issue maybe motherboard related ?
Does anybody have suggestions on what I can do to resolve this issue ?
Thanks in advance.

Dell Latitude E6410 Notebook most BIOS settings are not persistent
When making changes in the BIOS setup program, subsequent access to the BIOS setup shows the settings have reverted to initial previous (default) values/settings. Things that are NOT the problem:
BIOS is always under either laptop battery or AC adapter power. Battery and AC adapter are original OEM with this computer. Therefore, the problem cannot be the CMOS backup battery, because it only comes into play if the notebook battery and AC are disconnected at the same time. The notebook battery is good. It powers the unit for over 2 hours.
Things that might be the problem:
The hard drive was replaced and Debian linux was installed. The small diagnostic partition no longer exists, because it wasn't transferred from the old drive to the new hard drive.
Finally, the settings might be persistent, but may be displayed incorrectly in the BIOS setup program.
So, why do the BIOS settings not persist?
I suspect the Dell proprietary diagnostic partition--or lack of it--is the culprit! But I want to know for sure. And I'd like a link to download the contents of the diagnostics partition for this model computer.
Thank you,
Awesome

Dell Concierge service
I am not sure if this is correct forum if not please direct me to the correct one. I am having problems getting help from Dell Tech Concierge service I purchased. I have spent days with at least 15 hours on the telephone and online trying to get them to solve my laptop problem. The problem the Concierge software keeps downloading and checking and removing files repeatedly. Tech support has done many things including uninstalling and installing, and assuring me that they have solved the problem. My laptop is slow and the Windows programs are not working correctly. The program is still interrupting to check and remove and/fix files. I am very frustrated and angry. I have talked to someone who was supposed to be a ‘ Dell supervisor’ with not results. Where can I go from here is there another place Dell has for solutions? I am thinking of contacting my State *** General.
I also agree with others opinions about fake calls being an inside job. Every time I contact tech support I also start getting fake calls from people who say they are from Dell or Microsoft, they have my Dell information--- they say they see problems on the laptop and want to connect If I hang up sometimes they call back demanding an explanation of why I hung.@##@@$$@!$^&

Dell XPS 13 9350 Video and Sound Problems.
Hi
I've had a recent problem with my dell xps 13 (9350) since I've updated to the anniversary version of windows 10
So once I start the laptop, sound does not work even though I still here the buzz of the earbuds when I connect them to the laptop. Videos on the web don't work either. I've tried going on youtube and cnet browsing through videos and they don't work. Interestingly I can still browse other sites like normal If I'm just reading or so.
If I restart the computer everything is back to normal. However, the problem occurs if I fully shutdown the laptop and then start it up again.
I've been constantly restarting the laptop every time I start it up, it's getting a tad bit annoying.
I have the latest drivers for the laptop and I do not want to try to reset it without going through any other possible solutions.

Dell inspiron 7720 blank screen
Hello!
Few month ago my motherboard had passed away so I've decided to order new one for my inspiron 7720 17R se. Few days ago I've assembled it and hopped that everything will be ok but not.. When I turn on my laptop I see all the lights are turned on (indicators) but the screen is black and blank + the fan isn't working. I've turned off the laptop and held the power button for 15-20 sec and the laptop had turned on but stucked on the windows logon screen and nothing happens... I turned the laptop off again and it hadn't turned on again with the same symptom from the beginning(black screen) after few attempts to turn it on I've managed to turn it on again and ran the diagnostics. the check was successful and the fan was working although the cpu temp was very high 70*c. also the display check was successful (D pressing). what it can be?
Maybe the bios need to be updated? but if so how can I do it if I'm not able to run windows!
Please help!!
