View 10 RepliesI've recently replaced a 3/4 year old dell and would like some ideas on what to do with it...
It's not that bad a system, just don't know what to do with it right now. I've given it a fresh format and everything is running fine (other than the battery which doesn't work any more, but easily replaceable).
Specs -
Dell Inspiron 6000
Intel Pentium M 1.86
1024MB RAM
60GB Hard Drive
Mobility Radeon x300 128MB (1680 x 1050)
Windows XP Pro
plus all the basics .....
I have a 3+ yr old D620 that I have been really happy with. It is starting to show its wear and tear a bit,
I have lugged this thing everywhere on a daily basis. So, looking at the current Dell lineup, there doesn't seem to be anything that strikes me as a similar model.
Here is what I particularly like about it - and what I'd require in a new one:
1) Pretty durable solid build, including the way the screen locks pretty much in place - i.e. doesn't feel flimsy.
I enabled the Intel Virtualization Technology on the work laptop studio 13. Ever since then, the laptop has been constantly hanging (not always) off the Dell or Windows bootscreen.
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit. I need this to run the XP mode.
Does this happen to anyone else? I contacted Dell today and was informed that it could be caused by a faulty motherboard. I wasn't entirely convinced because the laptop is still fairy new.
If you press the power button, you can hear the hard drive starting to spin up, then it acts as if the power was just cut from it and it dies.
I am assuming something on the motherboard is just broken, just figured I would ask to see if anyone else has any other ideas.
Ive never been able to get the webcam to work on my m1730..
Any ideas?
I'm having a few problems with the web cam software in my Dell Vostro 1700 laptop.
When I run the web cam manager it displays video fine, but as soon as I start to record video it crashes, saying livecam.exe has stopped working.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it's still no good.
Any ideas? I've not used it for quite some time, so don't know how long it's been like it. Alternatively, are there any other good free apps that let you eaily record video on a web cam?
I also have Skype and MSN Messenger installed, but wouldn't have thougt they'd have done the damage (as it's only when I try to record that it crashes).
I cant find it on dell home website.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm a somewhat pleased (after months of displeasure) SXPS1645 owner *points to sig* but after 5 months of carrying this thing with me to my campus daily (and pretty much everywhere else I go) this machine is heavy and big and bit overkill since when I'm outside I rarely use it for video editing and gaming which I tend to do at home. So for the Fall(ish) I'm going to be in the market for an ultraportable, but after using this machine it's going to be hard to go to a machine with a wimpy atom processor or even a ULV C2D. So I found the Adamo XPS and it appeals to me in the same way the SXPS did, an eye catching design that isn't bulky and still performs well. However looking at the specs currently available for it I was disappointed. It's using a hodgepodge of outdated parts. I wanted to basically start a thread on potential component refreshes for the Adamo XPS, in the hopes that by the time I'm ready to purchase one some of these things will become reality. Also I'm curious about other brands of ultraportables (NOT netbooks) that people use/have used and would recommend.

They basically take it completely apart. Very interesting with lots of photos.
I was surprised to learn the battery can't be replaced by the user...
Apples and oranges, I know. I've done the "what should I buy?" FAQ and have had my options whittled down, and I'm between these two at the moment.............................................................
View 10 Replies View RelatedI really need your advise on which one to go with. I prefer to test them out at the store. Unfortunately, I can't find any locally.
Anyhow, I can get the Adamo Admire on Dell (the 1.4GHz version) for $899 (with $100 EPP discount).
The Vostro V13 for $700 (w/o SSD). In fact, if I go with the V13, I may get the base version to save even more, but just to make a comparison, let's consider the $700 version.
I don't use this laptop for much heavy work. I have the Latitude D630 for that. I like to add a sexy machine for documentation, web browsing, and business travel. Occationally, I will compile some C code, but not often .....

I am purchasing the original Adamo (not the XPS) with the following specs.
(Pearl) Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor Lv SL9600 (2.13GHz, 6MB, 1066MHz)
UK - Irish Internal Keyboard (QWERTY) - Pearl
45W Adamo (Pearl) Power supply with UK power cord
4096MB 800MHz Dual Channel DDR3

Dell Bluetooth 370 Card
What is the graphics card?
And can you do some light gaming on the lowest settings?
Is anyone ready for the Dell Adamo 13 to be release..............................................

can`t see why it wouldn`t be but i wanted to check.
I started out with a M1210 and than moved to a MB Air. I like the Air but i really want to come back to Windows so would you recommend the Adamo or the Adam XPS ?
I really like that Adamo XPS but what do you think of the specs ? Will it preform well ? Would it preform as good as my Air with 120 SSD, Nvida Card and 2 GB Ram?
It is even thinner than the new Sony Vaio X.
I thought my Nokia E51 was thin at 12mm but this Adamo is just 9,99mm!Really insane.Take a look at the following links:

This notebook is so vastly overpriced I do not know how dell can stay in business when coming up with new products like this. Look at this...

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was just wondering what the community thinks of design of the new Dell Adamo.
Please vote on the two based on a purely design perspective without basing your opinions on specs.
This is interesting; I'd love to see a "DellBook Air"...
View 10 Replies View RelatedAs the title suggests I am starting to see small air bubbles form under the glass on my Adamo 13 laptop - along the edge of the LCD monitor and the black border. I cannot seem to find any other reports of this issue on the web.
This laptop almost never leaves the house, or even the desk it sits on, and is otherwise in perfect condition. It is run in a 75-degree house, low humidity (Phoenix, AZ) - really no reason I can see as to why this would be happening, at least not from anything I am doing.
www.dell.com/outlet has 1st generation Studio XPS 16's on the outlet as I write this.
There are now 24 SXPS16's on the Outlet. Max price is $2469, minimum is $859
Highest price is $1,499, lowest is $879.
All come with the HD 3670 graphics. Some with Blu Ray + RGB 1080p screen
The 15% off outlet coupons are gone now, right? I just found a good SXPS 1640 8gb ram system..
View 10 Replies View RelatedPardon me if this is in the wrong section. But I was going to buy a refurbished Dell Latitude, but when I try clicking on check inventory button, it says sorry page not found.
Is anyone else having this problem? I know the home section works, only the business section doesn't
Are the products sold through the Dell Outlet as good as ordering brand new? I am interested in a Studio 15 laptop, but a new one is beyond my budget.
A previously ordered new can be bought in the outlet for as little as about $650 or so. What am I losing by buying from the outlet rather than new?
I'm curious to hear what experiences you all have had with laptops from Dell Outlet (looking at Latitude D630). Was it a scratch-and-dent, refurbished, previously ordered new, etc.?
I would upgrade to 3-year Pro Support and Warranty and buy additional accessories (docking station, router, etc.).
Is it worth the risk? Will they take it back no questions asked or do I have to pay 15% restocking fee? (Dell was ambiguous about this).
i saw this searching the outlet
