Dell :: D630 Being Replaced

Jun 27, 2009

Dell is sending a replacement for my latitude d630. Does anyone know if they are still shipping d630s or will I have a different model sent to me? My d630 is about 2 years old, if it is another d630 do you think there will be any differences in the tech specs

Dell :: How Old Was Your Old When They Replaced It?

Oct 3, 2009

I'm wondering how old your laptop was when Dell replaced it with another under warranty? I bought my E1705 in April 2006 with 4 yr in-home service and complete care accidental replacement coverage. My E1705 is currently mangled after several repair attempts, the parts they used were physically damaged or defective and my video card was downgraded (GeForce Go 7900 to Radeon X1400) and I can't even run any 3D applications or games anymore

Dell :: 1647 To Be Replaced By But Without RGB Led Screen .... What To Do?

May 29, 2010

I'm pretty disappointed since the whole reason I bought this computer was for photo editing and the RGB Led screen was just perfect. But the Dell rep tells me that they are no longer offering that screen and that they will be sending me a 15.6 inch WLED.

They are still checking with the dispatch people to make sure that they aren't shipping the RGB Led, but I was wondering what my options were? I'm tempted to ask Dell to give me the Studio 17 instead, since it seems to be one of the last Dell computers to offer the RGB Led.

Dell :: Replaced My 7800go With X1400

Apr 1, 2008

my 9400 was overheating badly, and the screen was blacking out etc.

dell decided to replace the system

i receive an old crusty 9400 from the depot that looks like someone had used it for a place to set their coffee for a while, and the outer shell cosmetics are chipped,scratched, and generally low quality.

but, thats not my real issue....this laptop has an X1400 card in it.

my original system had a 7800 card.

i didn't think this was a "like-for-like" replacement, so i escalated my case. the supervisor i spoke with didn't understand what the issue was all about i guess, cause she kept telling me that i received the SAME laptop as a replacement

she even got some guy from tech support on the phone with us to have him verify the specs between the 2 cards....but after about 20 minutes of him saying that my replacement system has the IDENTICAL card in it as the original. (7800 and X1400 are different....thats why they have different names and part numbers...)

anyways, i asked that the tech support guy get the actual card specs for each one out so he can see that the 7800 is 256 dedicated memory and X1400 has only 128 dedicated memory.

he puts us (yeah, the supervisor lady is still hanging out on the phone cause she says she can't request another replacement until she gets verification from tech support that the cards are in fact different...so much for knowing anything about these products).......anyways, we're on hold for about 5 minutes, we hear a click, and then he's gone.

this was horrible and amazing at the same time because the supervisor lady started saying "hello?...are you there?....HELLO?....tech support are you on the line?"...so i guess she got to see how wrong an frustrating dell customer service can be

horrible because she's like "well, let me got ahead and dial back into the tech support queue so we can get another rep...". i said no, she should work it out with the proper department and get back to me, cause it'd had been almost a full hour at this point.

so my question is, is there something special i need to say to get them to understand that an X1400 card is not comparable to a 7800 card? i remember seeing people posting on here with a similar situation a while back, but i can't find those old threads. as an aside, the laptop is still under the original 3 year warranty as well as complete care.

Dell :: Just Had My Grainy Samsung Replaced..

Jan 14, 2009

I had a 1680x1050 Glossy LCD (SEC3350). I called up and Dell, jumped through the hoops and eventually had them send me a replacement LCD. I called the tech this morning and asked him who manufacturer was, he said LG..

I was ecstatic. In my excitement forgot to check that the sticker on the LCD infact said WXGA+ across the front.

Dell replaced my WSXGA+ screen with WXGA+

The screen quality itself is really good, but there are two things I'd like clarified before I place my replacement order again.

Dell :: E6400 Harddrive Replaced

Jan 2, 2009

so i replaced the 80gb Seagate Momentus 7200.3 with a WD5000BEVT
(WD Scorpio Blue 500gb). The problem that i have is simple, its not working.

The Bios is detecting the new HD correctly and the new WD harddrive also
passed the DELL diagnostic test.

But when i try to restore a Backup or install a new OS, the menues
freeze where i have to access the harddrive.

I also tried to download the WD diagnostic tool but when i run that it is freezing at the beginning when it says "DR-DOS booting".

Can someone tell me if it is a bios or chipset related probem or do i need
a replacement for the new WD harddisk. Has someone ever tried replacing
the original hd with a 500gig one?

Dell :: Replaced MB/GPU On 1330 Now Graphics Are S-l-o-w

Mar 21, 2009

I just got my Dell back with a replacement MB and GPU due to failure... I used to run Wow smoothly with medium/high settings 50-60 fps,

now I am getting like 10-12 fps! My 3DMark 2006 scores went down almost a thousand points (from about 2K to 1.1K).

Same drivers from the nVidia site179.28, and I just updated to 179.48.

I know the Laptopvideo2go's might be better, but I was running the ones from nVidia before the swap.

Dell :: Who Had M1730 Replaced With An M17x

Sep 29, 2009

I was thinking that a list with people who got an M17x as a system replacement for the M1730 will be very useful for some of us.

That being said, I want to know what configuration you had before and what you got. Country is also important, so please note this as well.

Dell :: M1530 LG LCD Died, Replaced By Grainy One

Feb 21, 2009

I was a happy owner of my XPS M1530 for almost 10 months in a row now. I had a luck and received M1530 with LG Philips LCD -what a joy.

Unfortunately LCD backlight started to dim out and I had to call Dell Czech for a replacement.

I requested to replace my faulty LCD with the same type (LG Philips) and CSR guy told me that's not a problem ordered one for me and the next day service man arrived. Replaced my faulty LCD no questions asked. Before he left I asked him if it is really LG Philips as I requested because the new one had quite less contrast and the viewing angle was also somehow diferent. We found out that the new one is manufactured by Optronics and is grainy.

Found a comparison pic on the internet: Grainy of the left, LG on the right


Well I am not happy with this one, it is much worse LCD than LG was. Called to Dell asked for immediate replacement. CSR guy told me it is not possible as Dell does not quarantee ANYTHING - check out our terms of sale. Did you get WXGA+ 1440x900? If so then don't complain was his answer.

I requested to put into my CRM that I am not satisfied with the new one and that I feel cheated as I was promised LG LCD over the phone. CSR guy promised to pass this info to his supervisor and that he will call me back. Two days passed no-one called and I am gonna call them on Monday again .....

Dell :: 1525 Screen Needs Replaced But Whats Compatible?

Mar 1, 2010

Does anyone know which screens/laptops are compatible?

If there is a large range of screens that will fit I will most likely just buy a broken laptop with a good screen to fix it.

Dell :: Call Of Duty 4 After Replaced My Video Card

Mar 9, 2008

So the technician successfully replaced my video card and everything was great and fine with the world. I tried it out on Call of Duty 4 and checked the temps which peaked at a MUCH lower level so I thought I was good to go and I was happy. The only problem I had was a small amount of choppyness in the game, but I just figured I had the settings too high and I had not overclocked it at all. No problem.... So now today I wanted to play good old Oblivion and I figured this would need some overclocking because well....its Oblivion. So I start up ATI Tool and overclock it to around 620 mhz core and 720 mhx memory...Not too much overclock considering some of you have got yours to like 650 or higher and 800 in the memory department... Well I was just about to start playing when after the game loads there is no character on the screen just grey lines... So I figure maybe I overclocked it to much? I turned it down about 10 to 20 mhz and I still had some artifacts? I pretty much turned overclocking so far down I would now consider it slightly pushing the card. So I try to play oblivion and it is really choppy. Before I got this new card I had some pretty bad heat problems and crashing because of it, but I could overclock it to a MUCH higher level than that of this non heat problematic card?

So my question to all of you highly intelligent and knowledgeable people of this forum is do I have a bum card or is something else the matter? Sorry for such a long post I just felt my story needed to be fully explained so I could receive the best support...

Dell :: Inspiron 6000 Screen (already Replaced Inverter)

May 12, 2009

My screen went black. Did some research and found it it was most likely the inverter.

I replaced the inverter but it still flickers and then goes black while its booting up.

How can I tell if this is the back light or if this is the lcd itself? I've heard the backlight is hard to replace and I might have to take it somewhere to have it done which would cost $$ .....

Dell :: Replaced M170 With M1710 Video Card

Aug 28, 2007

They gave me a 7900GS instead of a 7950 GTX. I know some of you have had the same problem.

Everything else is fine, I could care less. But, I really feel that I should have gotten the GTX instead. Two Questions:

1) How minimal is the downgrade from 256mb 7800 GTX in my old M170 to a 256mb 7900GS? How big is the difference in the 7900GS vs the 7950GTX?

2) For those of you who have gotten this problem, how did you go about getting the card switched? Did they send a new system? I'd rather they just send the card and I'll swap it out myself.

The replacement was approved on the 8th, and I just got it today. Apparantly it's a new build, not a refurb. But I want the video card that's not a downgrade.

Dell Inspiron N5110 :: Screen Replaced But No Display?

Mar 19, 2013

I have a dell inspiron n5110 laptop that was recently slammed to the floor because of some crazy incident. Anyways, the screen shattered so i replaced the screen and attached the cables properly. The laptop powers on, but no display on the screen what so ever, its completely black.

I did the take out the battery and power cord, held power down for 60 sec. that was a no go

I don't know what could be the problem. I even hooked the laptop via hdmi to my tv and it works fine on the tv so i know the laptop is working. Also my warranty expired so that won't do. would really like to resolve this issue without forking over a couple hundred bucks.

Dell :: Bought Studio 1537 Motherboard And Replaced 1536

Apr 6, 2010

I have a 1536 that I thought had a dead motherboard. I bought a 1537 motherboard, T9600 CPU & a CPU fan & heatsink. Finally all the parts showed up & I got it installed. Unfortunatly all this new hardware & still same problem. When you turn it on the media lights flash on & then off & the DVD drive makes some noise. The display doesn't turn on & no HDD activity. I know the 4G of DDR2 is good & the HDD is good as I tested them in another laptop. Any help would be helpful. I would think that I would get some HDD activity ( noise & HDD light ) if the display was dead.

Dell :: E6500 WUXGA Screen Corners Dark, Being Replaced

Jul 1, 2009

I received a Latitude E6500 with a WUXGA screen with the dreaded screen brightness problems. This is the same problem discussed here:
E6500 WUXGA -

The bottom corners on mine are very dark. I had been expecting a little, and had been planning on dealing with it like I have with some laptops in the past, but it's kind of outrageous how discolored they are. Screen brightness evenness is very poor as well, with the bottom part of the screen significantly brighter.

My purchase order lists my screen as:
Module,Liquid Crystal Display 15WU+,2CCFL,Samsung Maybach/Avia

How are people getting the exact model number and part number for their displays?

At any rate, it's the bad Samsung kind of screen. A lot of threads including the one I linked to state that there is also an LG/Philips screen that is much better for the same Dell WUXGA screen component.

Has anyone managed to get Dell to change a Samsung screen for an LG/Philips? If so, how did you do so?

My chat rep tells me that they can only replace using whatever was in the order initially.

Dell :: Have Any E4300 Owners Replaced Optical With A Second 2.5" Drive?

Aug 23, 2009

I'm loosely considering picking up either a 13.3" Latitude E4300 or a 14.1" Latitude E6400, but a feature that's really important to me is being able to replace the optical drive with a second 2.5" drive so that I can have an SSD + 500 GB hard drive setup.

In the stickied thread about adding another 2.5" drive to Latitudes, someone suggested that even though the E4300's optical is a "fixed bay," the drive adapter should fit in there anyway -- it just won't lock into place with a latch.

My questions are:

1) Has anyone with an E4300 tried this?
2) Would anyone with an E4300 be interested in trying this?
3) If you have tried it, are there any downsides? e.g. does the drive jostle around or anything or does it hold securely in place!

First problem was that it did not come with the extended battery. I called and asked about it and they ended up sending me a replacement extended battery for the standard one.

On monday the 5th of october they received my old laptop (1330) and the transfer should of been done at that time. I was told the transfer will be done when my laptop is received, it hasn't .....
