I've looked on Google, Dell, and a few other places to find out what happened to my Ultrabook. The laptop kept saying it was getting no power although it was plugged in and charging (or so it said). Finally it ran out of power, and in the last throws, it would try to power on, then die for lack of power. I bought a new AC Power supply, tested the electrical connections (all at spec), a new battery,,.and all but the motherboard. Here's my question: what is the difference between the Dell xps 9530 nwym9, 43pmm, and r99vn? I'm sure something in the nomenclature is obvious, but I just don't see it. 

Aside from the mnotherboard designation questions, has anyone solved the power out question? What lead up t6o this situation what constantly shortened power, although plugged in. Thank you

Hi All,

My laptop is Dell Latitude E6330, with latest BIOS ver A17

The existing BIOS is legacy, and the Windows 10 in the laptop is MBR type.

I cloned it using Transcend SSD Scope but it is not bootable. (Checked in the SSD Scope, its firmware is latest)

I have tried using Windows 10 dvd to boot and direct install into the SSD. Both BIOS/MBR and UEFI/GPT unable to proceed the Windows 10 installation.

Does this Transcend SSD370S compatible to Dell Latitude E6330 ?

Please help. Thanks.

Hello to all of the Dell Community!

In our hands we have a Dell Inspiron 7520, to which the battery does not stay in the charging port and is loose, to which it often falls out and the computer switches off.

In retaliation to this, i have ordered a new charging port, but also have noticed that, their is originally a small rubber ring which is missing, which is normally in front of the charging port, on the laptops casing and looks like it keeps the charger in the port, preventing it from sliding out so easily.

Where in gods name can i find this small little piece :D it has been the hardest thing to look for and find, an can not seem to get it anywhere! or know of the proper name for it.

Regards

MJ

I tried to install Windows 10 on XPS 11 laptop. The installation required a restart. The laptop restarted itself and froze on the DELL logo. When I try accessing BIOS (with F2) or the boot menu (F12), the option highlights itself (as in being selected), but nothing happens whatsoever. I took the battery out, pressed the Power button for 10 secs, placed the battery back on, but again nothing happened. If someone could tell me how to fix this...

I have a Dell Precision 5510 for work running Windows 7. I purchased a Dell D3100 dock to connect my external monitors. Before I purchased, I used the chat assistant to confirm that the D3100 would work with my computer even though it wasn't on the Compatible List. I was assured by that individual that it would work fine. As soon as I received the dock I installed the DisplayLink software and the Dell driver for USB 3 Docking Stations (Dock_DL_Win_A00_Setup-HF3KV_ZPE). The displays are working perfectly and the audio out from the dock is working, however, none of the USB ports on the dock function. Since my laptop only has 2 USB 3.0 ports and one is used by the dock I do not have enough USB ports. I don't want to run a seperate USB Hub since adding additional plugs defeats the purpose of a dock in my opinion.

Does anyone have any idea why the rest of the dock is functioning but not the USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 ports? I have plugged other USB Hubs in to my laptop and they work fine.

Hello,

Laptop - Inspiron 17R 5737.

Does anybody knows is it really set permanent lighting of the backlit keyboard?

In fact I see 3 modes of my backlit keyboard: ON, middle-brightness, OFF.

But even in the ON mode keyboards lights only 30 seconds and if I don't push any key - it is go out.

It is very unusefull, when I reading long text in night and can't see my keyboard after 30 seconds.

Is it any key combination or may be some third-party tool, which can make my backlit permanent?

Hey guys,

I got a Dell Latitude 7275 a few weeks ago but just cant figure out how to bring it out of sleep mode properly.
When I put it to sleep and dont use it for a little while, I have to press the power button on the side a few times and it seems almost random when the tablet turns back on.
Sometimes I press the power button 1-2 times and then it briefly vibrates and wakes up, sometimes up to 6 times before it reacts and the odd time it doesnt do anything until I hold the button for 15s and it reboots.

Can anyone explain just how waking the device properly works?

Thanks!

This is a last ditch effort to attempt to figure out what's wrong. I've been having to use a mouse the past few days on my Dell Inspiron 3537 because of it's sudden, odd touchpad problem. Now, this laptop is at least three years old, and it'll probably be high time to get a new one eventually, but I would rather like to see if this is a small issue I could get fixed and maybe get a few more months or another year out of it.

Essentially, on Saturday, my laptops' touchpad began to go on the fritz. It began to highlight, click, and drag objects while I was only moving the cursor across the screen. I was baffled and I proceeded to see if my drivers needed to be updated. Nope, according to the Dell website, my drivers for my touchpad were up to date. I looked into the touchpad properties, got no results from that, and eventually I decided to see if going back on a touchpad driver update might help. That didn't fix anything and actually removed the entire driver from my system, so I ended up re-downloading the touchpad driver. That didn't help either. Every time I thought I had maybe fixed it, it went right back to highlighting and clicking without my input. At that point, I gave up and disabled the touchpad and grabbed my mouse, which I've been using ever since.

My only other thought is that my touchpad has a dead spot, and/or this issue is just age and it's time to start backing up files and looking for a new one. Any help out there for me?

Inspiron 17R N7110, Windows7 Home Premium

I am trying to install the current Alps touchpad driver R307442.exe as listed under my service tag. Of course I am doing this to have some control over the touchpad, which I have none now.  The installation fails every time (install wizard).

I have looked at the other driver updates, and there are 2 bios updates, but it doesn't appear they would affect the Alps install (bios#1 for Windows8 upgrade, bios#2 to revert to old bios) and I don't want to install them anyway.

Any help in installing this Alps driver is much appreciated.

I bought an XPS 15 9550 laptop in October 2015, with a 500GB SSD C: drive.  I need to upgrade that 500GB SSD to a 1TB SSD, but I'm concerned about compatibility with the BIOS, etc.  Can you tell me if Dell sells a compatible 1TB SSD drive or if I can find one at Amazon?  If you know of a source of detailed instructions for the physical upgrade and for moving the OS and contents of the C: drive to the new SSD, that would be greatly appreciated.  With SSD prices appearing to be falling, this sort of thing should be occurring more frequently.  Thanks in advance for your help.

As the title suggests - my invoice specifically says 3yrs warranty was purchased with my M3800 in November 2014. I'm now showing as out of warranty after 2yrs

I'm having issues with a screen that was replaced in May/June 2016 and would like a replacement as I believe the unit is faulty. Please can you get in touch to resolve.

Thank you.

I have been interested in buying a 14 inch or 13 inch laptop, but I have some "must have"s before I am willing to buy it: 

1) Matte screen (though this can be fixed with certain screen overlay products)

2) dedicated Page Up / Page Down keys (unlike, say, a Macbook, which requires the function key to be pressed along with the up/down keys)

3) Hard Drive Indicator light

4) Good sound from headphones (many computers have terrible sound with headphones, for some reason!)

5) Momentum/Inertia feature for the trackpad.

The Lattitude laptops I saw in microsoft store fulfill 1-3. But laptop makers today have this infuriating pattern to TAKE AWAY features. In this case, their touchpad driver had so many fewer features than older laptops. One must-have for me is the Inertia/Momentum feature, where if you make a flicking motion with your finger, the cursor continues to move, as if you flicked a trackball.

Does anyone know if recent Dell computers can be forced to use a different touchpad driver which has this feature?

We have several thousand Chromebook 11 V1 and V2 devices.  Often students experience loss of the cursor and must reboot the computer to have it reappear.  We don't seem to have a problem if a mouse is connected.  Just hate to purchase thousands mice to use Chromebooks for state mandated testing.
