Dell :: 6400 Bluetooth Not Working Since Reformat

Mar 31, 2009

I have reformatted my old Inspiron 6400 in preperation of selling it, however I used to leave the Bluetooth module turned off the majority of the time when not needed to conserve power.

The module was turned off at the time of the reformat. Since reformatting I cannot get the Bluetooth to work. I can see it in the BIOS and I have loaded the drivers, but it's still failing to work or recognise it

Dell :: Reformat Or Not To Reformat

May 6, 2009

so I recently ordered my Studio XPS 16 and hopefully it will be coming 5/15/09(crossing fingers).

I am debating if I should reformat when I get it, I am a little nervous about doing it.

I was just thinking about manually uninstalling some of the crap that comes with it, like the facial recognition since I know I wont use it. Will I see a noticeable performance increase if I reformat? Or should I just uninstall the things I wont use?

Dell Inspiron 6400 :: E1505 Ethernet Not Working

Mar 21, 2011

I haven't been able to connect to LAN (Ethernet) connections since I acquired this laptop, I have installed the correct drivers and tried with different OS but none of them have been a success.

I tried in different Ethernet connections (different houses too) but I still get no internet on my laptop, it recognizes that there's something connected but no internet at all. Since then I have been using a Wireless Router always...

Dell :: S-XPS 16 Bluetooth / Sound Not Working

Jan 18, 2010

I love my new laptop but it has a few issues that i need some help fixing:

1) Bluetooth not working (Yes there IS a module in my computer): I went into my bios and checked to make sure the option for bluetooth was checked. When my computer boots, the bluetooth LED comes on but as soon as it exits the BIOS and boots Windows 7 the LED turns off. I've looked for new drivers, and looked around other forums for a solution for this but have found no direct answer.
EDIT: Solved. Download the driver here

2) Sound (I have The High Def Audio with SRS premium sound. IDT drivers)- When playing sound on my computer with the A01 bios version, and having the IDT audio drivers, I noticed a lot of weird things going on with the sound. It like bottomed out and had a lot of vibration or something. I dont know how to describe it but it was VERY distorted. Since then i've upgraded my BIOS to A05 and uninstalled my IDT audio drivers and let windows install its own high definition audio drivers. It seem a lot better but there is still some distortion there were it seems like the computer is just vibrating too much or something.. Is there a fix for this? I read in another thread that he had to take out the keyboard and adjust some of the screws that were messing with the speakers.

*Also when I plug in my headphones, i notice some scratching and weird sounds when im not playing any music. Its like I can hear the hardrive. However, the problem is inconsistent. Is there a way to fix this?

*Also are there some recommended settings for the SRS premium sound (if i solve this and get the sound working right)?

EDIT: Visit this thread to upgrade your BIOS to A05. It fixed this problem to me, and besides, its the latest BIOS version. It's currently not on the dell site (typical dell)
Also Uninstall the IDT SRS Premium audio software an go to the Dell site and download just the IDT Driver. It fixed the clarity problem i was having too.

3) Wireless card- This must have been a A01 BIOS issue but since I upgraded to A05, it has been fixed. Basically when running uTorrent, the card would completely crash. It would make Firefox crash, and any other internet required app

Also it would be EXTREMELY helpful if someone would create a thread with all of the latest S-XPS 16 drivers (1640 and 1645). That way much time spent searching and troubleshooting can be avoided if we can just have a thread with all the drivers displayed in one location. Dell is horrendous when it comes to the latest drivers

Oh and here is my system build:
Dell Studio XPS 1645
Windows 7 Home Premium
Intel Core i7 720QM
6GB DDR3 at 1333MHz
RGBLED screen
AT 4670 - 1GB
High Definition Audio with SRS Preium Sound
Intell 5300 WLAN 3x3
DEll Wireless 370 bluetooth Module (2.1+EDR)

Dell :: 1501 Reformat

Jul 28, 2009

I am having a problem with a 1501 reformat and need help.

I have done a complete reformat and everything seems to work fine except for one thing---I cannot get on the Internet. This unit was wireless capable before the reformat, but now doesn't seem to show any wireless capability and will not log on to the net even through broadband.

I am guessing that there is a driver problem with the network adapter? I have tried to download a dell driver to DVD from a different computer, but no luck so far. System Devices shows 5 different devices that are "questionable" with no drivers, including a "network controller" and an "ethernet controler".

I have the CD's that came with the unit, including a "driver devices" CD. I have tried to use that CD but no luck so far.

I am a rookie at this but have done reformats before without any problem. I am a student and this computer is something of a "repair project" for learning purposes.

Dell :: Inspiron 1545 Touchpad, Bluetooth And Blu-ray Not Working

Aug 12, 2009

Purolator dropped off the laptop today and I was quite excited. I tried the Bluray and it's definitely worth the extra money. However, some things are going wrong.

First, the damn touchpad sucks. I want Synaptics back. But at this point all I can do is BAWW about it, so whatever. But when I try to install the drivers, the cursor flips out every time I touch the pad at all. It goes all over the screen in random directions.

Second, my bluetooth doesn't seem to be working. I installed the drivers on Windows Vista and Windows 7, but neither of them yielded results. The drivers install without a problem and then tell me to enable Bluetooth using the radio button. The radio button is already enabled, as Wi-Fi is working, but there is still no Bluetooth option in the Control Panel or anywhere else for that matter.

Third, Bluray movies seem to not work with WMP. What's the problem? If it's not supported, what program do you guys suggest I use for Bluray movies?

Fourth, no matter what I do, Catalyst Control Center just won't install. The drivers are there, but CCC just won't work at all, let alone show up in my desktop context menu.

Dell Inspiron 17R 7720 SE :: How To Reformat The HD

Feb 11, 2013

I have a new 17R 7720 SE- that worked great when I got it, but after all the Dell updates- the Waves Maxx doesn't work, and if I use it for more than an hour the screen turns white and the Laptop screen then goes blank! I've called Dell and they told me the 17R 7720 SE runs hot because of the internal 2gb nVidia 650 Video Card.

 I spent the money for a Cooler Master Laptop cooler with 3 Fans (separate A/C adapter to run this thing) and the Cooler Master sounds like a jet airplane under the Dell- and the Dell screen still shuts off. The only way to solve this is use an external monitor... if I would have known this I never would have order this worthless Inspiron.

I write this from my trusty Latitude D630- it's never let me down... the 17R 7720 SE has nothing but trouble! Dell recommended I reformat the Hard Drive, and re-install the factory software from the System Restore Disc...

Dell :: Vostro 1320 Reformat Issue?

May 30, 2009

I recently received my new Vostro 1320 and i'm quite satisfied with the system thus far.

I would however really like to put my own copy of XP on it (the system came with Vista Basic). I have my own copy of XP and all the XP drivers from dell's support site.

I've heard that there might be some issues regarding the BIOS that might make the reformat less than simple. Can anyone provide any advice about it or should I go about it as usual.

Dell Precision M6600 :: Bluetooth Mouse Isn't Working Running Windows 7

Nov 26, 2012

I have an M6600 running Windows 7.

The BT Moust is a Dell Travel Mouse F299K.  When I add it through the normal bluetooth menu, it seems to add correctly, but the blue light on the mouse keeps blinking.

I updated the BIOS to A12- that got it working for about 15 minutes.  Then it quit and I'm back to where I started.  I tried the mouse on two other machines and it works fine.  Even on a Macbook Pro.

Dell :: Can A Virus Survive Reformat In The MediaDirect Partition?

Oct 24, 2009

I have a dell XPS m1530, and because I am pretty sure I had a virus that my antivirus software could not pick up I reinstalled Vista.

I ended up reformatting the partition it was on before installing over, I also reformatted the recovery partition. But, apparently XPS system comes with a MediaDirect partition that I was unable to reformat (the windows set up did not let me do this).

I am wondering now if it's possible for the virus to have lived through the reformat in the MediaDirect partition. If so, how can I reformat that partition?

HP Pavilion Dm4 Networking :: Bluetooth Stopped Working?

Jan 9, 2015

I have an HP Pavilion dm4-1150ea running Windows 7 64bit.
 
I bought a bluetooth audio receiver and it paired with the laptop and installed a driver. I was able to stream audio to the receiver but when I closed the laptop and later opened it, it stopped working.
 
I looked in device manager and the bloetooth radios were no longer there and there were no bluetooth devices under Network Adapters. They had been there previously.
 
I rebooted a few times and it still didn't work. I got it to work once and it coincided with putting the power lead in. However, it didn't work for long.
 
HP Wireless Assistant says that Bluetooth is disabled in Device Manager.
 
I tried downloading the latest bluetooth driver from the HP site but it won't install because bluetooth isn't running.
 
At some point I got a message saying that a USB device had failed. I can see a warning icon on an "Unknown Device" in the USB Controllers section of Device Manager.
 
I tried to do a system restore but that failed because it couldn't get access to a file.
 
how I can get blue tooth working again?
