View 10 RepliesJust got my laptop today and I am having problems installing xp 64bit. I tried searching the forum but did not see anything.
Each time I try to boot off of the cd I get a blue screen. I have tried 4 times and it blue screens at the same place.
Just did a reinstall of Vista 64 bit.
I then went (tried) to http://www.diefer.de/i8kfan/index.html but the site is down.
Been trying for the past 2 days and still no-go.
I was told by Dell that the Vostro didn't support 64-bit addressing. What's not clear to me is if that means the hardware doesn't support it,
or just that they don't sell it with a 64-bit OS, or whether if you put your own Vista64 on it the Dell drivers would not work,
I'm having troubles with windows 7 (build 7100 64 bits) and xps 1340. All Vista (64 bits) driver seems to work fine until the notebook wakes up from the sleep or hibernate mode. The Ethernet will not recover at all.
In the Control PanelNetwork and InternetNetwork Connections the Ethernet will display cable unplugged even thought the cable is plugged. It will start functioning correctly after restart. It does indeed bothers me as if i close the notebook it will go to the sleep mode then I open it and the Ethernet connection is lost !
Also I can't get the inbuilt infra-red working. I have installed the driver but can find any software to use it with!
I'm just about to download the new Win 7 RC, but started wondering if I should go 64bit right away?
I'm just going to do a clean install (it's a year since last anyways...) so I'm not upgrading from Vista. I'll be taking backup off-course and making a list of all installed sw so I can easily install them in the new OS.
Anyone done this? Are there any issues? What can I expect? Which drivers wont work?
I have the A15 bios, 4GB mem and will do an upgrade of the processor as well.
Ive been hearing form numerous people that I should ocnsider 64bit being that I have 4gigs of RAM.
Is that true and what might be the benefits of 64 over 32?
Theres no unrecognised devices in device manager and theres no bluetooth in control panel.
I am able to see my computer in my mobile phone when I search for bluetooth
devices but even then the name that is displayed is that of the bluetooth card and not of my computer.
I searched dell.com for drivers but there are none that are specifically for bluetooth.
I am designer and use Photoshop more .
If i use xp 64bit the performance improve or don`t improve?

I insterted the dvd and boot from it but when after clicking install button, it asks me to insert the drivers cd for my "dvd drive"... and if I dont insert it, it doesnt continue.. Any one wanna to help me?
My dvd drive is sony optiarc 7640s. I searched net, but cant found thd drivers.
I've been looking all over for this specific driver for my laptop. I've downgraded the OS from Vista to XP and everything went fine but, just one more driver that I can't seem to find.
I went to the Dell driver download website and seen only 32bit drivers. So, I took a chance on trying to get the correct for this specific hardware:
I just upgraded the memory in my XPS M1330 to 4GB, so if I choose to I can now go from 32bit to 64bit Vista. It came with 32bit Vista Home Premium, but I have a 64 bit Vista Ultimate upgrade disc. Is it possible to upgrade from 32 bit Vista Home Premium to 64bit Vista Ultimate, or do I have to have a full 64 bit Vista Ultimate disc? And one last thing, is there really a big difference in performance going from 32bit to 64bit? I don't do anything very intensive with it, but if it makes everything seen snappier than.......

View 4 Replies View RelatedNow heres just the question my sister's comp was recently replace with a studio xps 13 that was loaded with 8gb of ram now the question is whether i should format and install 32bit into the system or 64bit?
i understand 32bit windows can only use up to 4gb while 64bit windows can utilize over 4gb. It seems that the clear advantage would be using windows 64bit since it has 8gb of ram.
Wondering if anyone has any opinion to this? In using 32bit instead?
i just clean installed 64 bit Windows 7 on my M1730. All appears to be running ok but I have a couple of yellow !?
I installed the
Nvidia drivers
touchpad driver
sigmatel drivers
intel chipset drivers
Logitech Drivers .....
I'm all set to order my 1555 except that I'm in two minds whether to get a 32bit or 64bit system.
I want to stay with 32bit coz that what I'm using,(with xp) and it works but want to go for the 64bit coz that's what all systems to moving towards now. I'm aware that the former can only utilise 3.3G RAM(I'm getting 4G with mine) and the potential of the latter is higher with more RAM should I want to upgrade in future.
My questions are:
1) Is there somewhere on the web that I could check if the programs I use now and intend to use the laptop for, are compatible with a 64bit system?
2) I'll be getting the P8600 2.40Ghz, 3MB, 1066MHz with 4G RAM. How much performance difference are we talking about between the two systems?
3) With the free Windows 7 upgrade, will they send ONLY the corresponding upgrade installation dvd? Otherwise, if they were to send both, I can try both out and see for myself.
Though some might not work altogether, I've heard that some 32bit software will run under a 64bit system but on the contrary run even slower? Can anyone confirm this?
If I stick to the 32bit now, and I want to move on to 64bit, will Dell just send me the installation disc?
want to install windows 7 beta 1 but i dont know with one will be better 32 bit or 64 bit i have notebook like in my sig

Additionally, when I go ahead and try to install it, it blue screens during setup, very early, repeatedly.
Anyone have any luck with this?
Does anyone here have a list of what drivers they are using with Windows 7 64 bit ?
I am about to rebuild my laptop and I am wanting to use the latest versions - including any from any 3rd party vendors like Intel, ATI etc.
Just installed Windows 7 64bit on my inspiron 1420 and its running fine. the only driver i'm having a hard time finding is "base system device" (location: PCI bus 3 device 1, function 3). i have no idea what it is and have no idea where to start looking for it. Dell's driver and suport website has to be one of the worst site ever cuz its soo hard to find anything. so if someone can help or have any idea i kind of need some help. and can someone show me were to get windows 7 64 bit drivers off the dell site? i'm looking to install the touch pad drivers so i can get more of the options and features.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI've got brand new Latitude E4300 and I decided to install Win7 64bit in order not to upgrade after I install all my software onto Vista. But I cannot get the LCD backlight control get to work.
In BIOS the settings work well, but in Win7 it does not. e.g. when I set in the BIOS half backlight, it works until I try to change it in Windows - it suddenly jumps to full backlight (I suppose),
but the Dell Controll Point dialog shows some 1/3 or similar. Then I'm able to change it +1 step, but it doesnt make any difference, even turning on and off the ambient light sensor doesnt make difference.
I tred to install several drivers from dell.com, but the support for Win7 64bit isnt very good. So I took some drivers from Vista 64b, and Vista 32b, but it made no difference.
I have an XPS M1710 Core Duo, with an upgraded 7950 GTX GPU which I'm going to be changing to a Quadro 3500M for OpenGL.
If I change the CPU from a T2500(2 GhZ) to a T7600(2.33 GhZ). Will my Mobo run at 64bit or not? My brothers seems to think not, and I'm not sure on this one!.
I've had my covet for arround less than a month now and i've now got serious issues with photoshop cs4 and all the cs4 suite.. like selecting actionscript in flash cs4s actionscript panel.. (major lag)
