a) Does the studio xps 1340 have the option to get bluetooth?
b) Intel 5300 found in the studio xps 1640 vs Dell Wireless 1510?
c) Is the RGB screen in the 1640 really worth the upgrade to the 1640 from the 1340?
I bought a new laptop yesterday, Model - Envy 15t k000

I am not able too bluetooth option turn on or off. Do i need to install any drivers? if so what respective driver i need to install.

OS - Win 8.1

Note: WiFi is working fine.
Due to an update for the Bluetooth driver, my Laptop Inspiron N5010 has gone into a Repair Option Loop. I've visited many Forums where the primary suggestion is to deal with the RegBack folder, something I haven't tried just yet. Why? Because now I've a REAL Problem. I can't see (through Linux Live DVDs or Win 7 Installation DVD) the Document Folder. There's is a User Folder and a UserName Folder but no Document Folder. There's a Desktop Folder but the files that used to be there are no longer there.
I'm not sure if I really lost them (due to Update) or they're hidden by the system. I thought of removing the Hard Drive and connecting it to another PC to see if the Documents are still there but for this Inspiron, you need an Engineering Degree to remove the HD. Seems like the Tech people at Dell hate competition so they make it more difficult for you to mess with the computer.
There is no way to get into Safe Mode. The only option is using the Win 7 Home Premium Ed, go to repair option (which fails) and try the System Restore option. All ten Restoration Points failed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust over a week ago there there was an option for WXGA+ display (1440x900) WLED. I was on the verge of buying but I held out for a coupon which I got next day. Problem was the next day the WXGA+ was no longer an option.
I am left with the choice of base WXGA WLED (1280 x 800), the CCFL version of that or WUXGA+ CCFL (1920x1200) @ £100 more. That is too high for me (resolution & maybe price). I really wanted the WXGA+ WLED and am pissed off it has gone
Anyone with knowledge of how dell works have any ideas why they would not be offering it any more or any ideas if it might come back?
I'm considering buying a studio 15 with P8400 which definitely supports intel VT.
Question,
is there an option in the bios to enable it? Can anyone with a studio 15 and a VT supported processor confirm or deny this option exists?
Is this the same technology and amazing screen as the XPS Studio 16? Anyone have this screen care to comment? I'm looking for a very bright and high quality screen and the Studio 17 seems like a perfect replacement for my Asus W2V.

So far, the leather-trimmed Studio XPS notebook only comes in black. But that could change very soon.
Dell's designers are considering a red (or according to them, "Bordeaux") plastic/leather lid combo, pictured here. It is not, however, part of the (Product) Red line.
Anyone know what happened to this option? I remember speccing out a system a few months back and it was possible to upgrade the x3100 to geforce 8400, but its no longer there.

The 1640/45/47 owners and the m1330 owners have their respective replacements threads. There has also been a concern about getting Alienware instead of XPS thread. So I created this thread because the Studio XPS 1340 has reached EOL and is no longer offered as a replacement. Thus, I would like 1340 owners' help in tracking and monitoring replacements.
Please specify experiences regarding:What are the specs of your current XPS 1340?What system was received in lieu of the SXPS 1340? Specs? New or Refurb?At what point were you aware of the system you were going to receive?How long did the systems' exchange process take?Did you attempt escalation or any form of negotiation?Are you happy with your replacement? .........
I am going to Wales in about two weeks for university and i am looking for the AC unit for the 1340

I had to to a complete fresh reinstall. The DVDs have no software for the webcam nor does the website. Just spent an hour with dell chat and remote checking and they cant figure it out.
They are sending someone out to replace the webcam - I think they are wrong - its a Vista 64/creative/Dell softare/driver issue. I had to do a reinstall after a BSOD. The camera worked fine until the BSOD.
I had been running Windows 7 for 2 weeks on my 13 and I kept on getting lockups. It would just freeze up. Only bios functions would work.
I had dell replace the motherboad, heatsinks and processor and it still locked up, the laptop was running really hot too.
I spoke to dell and they asked if I was running windows 7, I said yes, they said the laptop did not support 7 (yeah right) and I was to test under vista. So I reinstalled vista and the freezes totally stopped. Been running for one day solid now without a hitch.
I think there must be some driver conflicts running 7 which makes the laptop over heat.
I was happily tapping away on my month-old 1340 (P8600, 4gb, 9500m, 320gb) today, when all of a sudden...
The screen went bright white. Then flickered a bit. Then... smoke started coming out of the left hinge area! It soon switched off.
Dell will be getting a phone call tomorrow!
I've been running Windows7 on my laptop for a good month now, or longer, and I've always had this issue with Firefox, it constantly crashes. I can't really reproduce it at will, but its often enough that in a one hour browsing session it can crash 2-3 times.
All drivers are up to date, Firefox is up to date...I run the same on my desktop and have never had an issue so it must be something specific.
I am thinking about buying a studio XPS 1340. The only thing holding me back is the heating issue.
If the heating only comes from intense use of the graphics card (ie gaming) then that's not too much of an issue for me.
If there isn't a lot of heat generated from web/email, watching videos and running applications, then I think I'd be ok with it.
I've already had a number of minor, yet unfixed problems:
-cannot hibernate without freezing
-strip of touch-buttons become unusable
-strip of touch-buttons don't illuminate, or some do and others don't
-keypad occasionally sticks during typing
-touchpad becomes unusable
what bothered me most, however, is last night when I was typing and all of a sudden many of the keypad buttons weren't going through unless I went back and hit them again. moreover was when I went to shutdown for the night, and after everything on the desktop disappeared in preparation for logging off and shutting down, only the wallpaper and mouse stayed up, for a little over five minutes; then the "logging off..." screen appeared, and stayed for over ten minutes, by which time I simply shutdown via pressing the power button. therefore when I started it up again this morning, it displayed the screen saying how an improper shutdown occurred previously, asking how to start. I said "start Windows normally" and so far so good, as usual.

Does the 13" weigh the same as MacBook 13", is the 16" too heavy ?
Here is my list of issues with my 1340:
1) Upper left corner of screen is coming out - physically.
2) Wifi doesnt work when screen is too wide open (must be less than 90 degrees to work!)
3) Freezes every five minutes (I hope this post goes through!). Cursor gets stuck, thats it, no movement. Just freezes.
4) USB Port seems to fail - I run my mouse and then it just stops moving.
5) BSOD at least twice daily
6) Power cord plug is loose and not always working.
I want to replace my current hard drive which is 7200rpm 500gb seagate with SSD. Problem is on vista scoring chart there is either lower ranked ones or high ranked ones. obviously i want something higher ranked that my current Hard drive score of 5.9

When I turn off the computer, it does not turn off all the time (sometimes it does, and most of the time it doesn't), the screen truns off like it wants to shut down, but then the computer hangs up, with the HDD disk light flashing, and it never shuts down, requiring a hard shut down.
I have not installed any new software...nothing different has happened, and I did try system restore, going back quite a ways, it did not work....
