Dell Inspiron 11 3147 :: Touchscreen Doesn't Work Correctly On Battery Power

Dec 9, 2014

I got an inspiron 11 on Friday.  I started noticing that sometimes the touchscreen wouldn't work correctly.  Sometimes It takes a few taps to register a touch, other times it just quits working for a  few seconds. This makes it hard to do anything, and makes it completely impossible to play any touchscreen games.

After a couple days, I finally figured out that It was on battery power that  I had the problems.  When plugged in the touchscreen works perfectly.

I have downloaded all the dell upgrades, and windows upgrades. I've also tried to turn off all the battery saving options I could find.  Under power options advanced screen I changed every option to the same for plugged in and on battery. I turned off the option for dells power saving features. In device manager I took away windows ability to put usb hub asleep.  There Is probably more I'm forgetting. Basically everywhere I seen a difference between battery and plugged in, i changed.

It passes all the hardware checks, both through dell software, and on the bootup hardware check.

I use this in tablet mode 90% of the time.  And returning it to laptop mode to use touchpad/keyboard just isn't acceptable

HP/Compaq :: HP HDX16, Processor Stepping Doesn't Work Correctly- Bus Speed Low

Sep 7, 2009

HP HDX16 with P7350. In CPU-Z I see core speed 1595.8 I'm observing and it changes to 1595.9 and then 1596.0 and then 1596.1 and then shoots up to 1995.0 - I have never seen it reach 2.0 and never go down below 1595. When processor speed changes I can here problems with sound while listening to music.

Another thing is the Bus speed, which is fixed at 266.0mhx, isn't it supposed to be 1066?

see attached screen.

Dell Inspiron 3147 :: Battery Not Charging

Aug 16, 2014

This new Dell Inspiron 11 3147 just arrived today.The AC Adapter is "plugged in" but the battery is "not charging." Dell Diagnostic has found no problem,I've had trouble getting a hold of customer service. has been to uninstall and reinstall the Microsoft ACPI Complian Control Method Battery driver, which I have done.The only thing I haven't messed with is the battery itself, which doesn't seem to be accessible without damaging the back, which is screwed on and secured well.

Dell Inspiron 3137 :: TouchScreen Does Not Work?

Dec 1, 2014

I have an Inspirion 3137 with a clean install of Windows 8.  My touch screen does not work at all.  So far I have:

 - installed all available driver updates from Dell

 - installed all available Windows updates

 - updated to windows 8.1

 - installed all original software from Dell backup image

I tried following troubleshooting to calibrate the touchscreen and the calibration options are not available in the control panel.

I have found that the touchscreen is not listed in the device manager under human interface devices.  I found an updated chipset that claims to fix this issue but it is apparently not compatible with this computer.

Dell Inspiron 17 7000 :: Google Chrome Doesn't React To Touchpad Only To Touchscreen

Jan 3, 2015

I got Dell Inspiron 17 7000 Series touchscreen laptop, and When I use Google Chrome browser, everything's okay from the start but sometimes it just stops responding to my mouse clicks and responds only to taps on touchscreen. Sometimes cursor dissapears when I try to move it from touchpad in Chrome. It appears when its positioned in lower Windows menu but dissapears as moved onto browser screen. Sometimes it doesn't disappear and I can move it, just can't click anything. Maybe there would be a point to reinstall Chrome?

It never happens for my DJing programs or other stuff. Oh and one more. For example, in some games and DJing program where I need to move equalizers and so, when using touchscreen I can't swipe, pull things, the whole window swipes away. Is it because of Windows 8 possibility to swipe in apps from left corner or just a glitch?

An exact example is Candy Crush (oh,dont be too harsh on me for playing such silly stuff) :D but I can't swipe candies with touchscreen, I can just tap on one and then tap on next one to make them change places. Though it wasn't like that 2 days ago,I was able to swipe those dumb candies. Have I pushed some button or something? I got Classic Shell program that converts all the menus pretty much to Windows 7 look, maybe the problem is connected with that..?

HP Envy Dv6 Networking :: WiFi Doesn't Work Properly On Battery

Nov 10, 2013

I am running Windows 8.0 (64bit) and my wifi is not working properly on Battery mode. On AC Adapter, it works 100% perfect but in battery mode, it always goes to Limited Connectivity. Repaired it but 25seconds later it gets the same problem. Limited Connectivity every single time. It's an endless cycle. Warranty has expired and I am not happy with it. 

Even if repaired, cannot open any website. Full 5 wifi bars but still the same result. Tried manually (TCP/IP Settings IPv4) but didnt work at all.

My wifi driver is Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230 ( 15.12.0.6 version updated from intel.com website). 

Product number C2Y46AV (HP ENVY DV6 NOTEBOOK PC)

Tried everything that I could possibly think off such as disabling Norton Firewall & Running windows firewall but still the same problem.

Updated everything from HP.

Dell :: Plugged Power Adapter Into Wrong Laptop, Now Adapter Doesn't Work?

Nov 9, 2009

I have a Dell Inspiron 1520 and my friend has a Latitude D820.

Tonight she accidentally plugged my power adapter into her laptop. A few hours later, she noticed that her laptop indicated that it wasn't plugged in, and that's when we realized that she had accidentally used my adapter instead of hers.

Now my adapter doesn't work at all. We've tried the adapter with both our laptops with different outlets with the same problem, so we know it's the adapter. The green light also doesn't come on when it's plugged in anymore.

Did plugging my adapter into her laptop somehow screw up my adapter, or could this just be a coincidence? Is there any way to fix the adapter or at least figure out what the problem is? And if I have to purchase a new adapter, do the universal ones they sell at retail electronics stores work OK? I would order one from Dell but I'm working on a project now and I don't have time to wait for it to ship.

Dell Inspiron N5050 :: DVD / CD Drive Doesn't Work

Feb 28, 2013

This computer is 6 months old.  It came with Windows 7, and I did install Windows 8 in October 2012.  I have had problems ever since and neither Dell nor Microsoft can support.  ANYWAY, until today, my DVD/CD player worked just fine.  I used it every few days, but today when I went to use it, the door would not open.  I notice the light next to the Open button is not lit up, but my device manager says it is in working order and the driver is updated. 

I tried Ejecting from the device manager, but it does not work.  When I ran the Dell Diagnostics program, it said that it was unable to run the diagnostics when there is media in the drive or the door is open.  There is a game disc in the drive, and the game works, but I think it is downloaded onto the computer, so maybe does not use the disc during play??  How can the drive work and not the door?  Is there anything I can do??

Dell Inspiron 1525 :: SD Port Doesn't Work

Jul 2, 2008

I have a brand new Inspiron 1525 and am trying to get my photos from a 1 gig sd card into a file on my laptop.  I've removed the "fake" sd card that came with the computer and put in the picture card.  It opened once (meaning it showed up as as an sd card in the "my computer" area, but I moved on to something else at home and eventually "safely removed" the card without finishing my task.  A few days later I tried again but the computer doesn't even recognize the card... the "my computer" area does not list the card as being in its slot.
 
What is more curious is that if I remove the card and put it into my trusty multi-slot card reader and insert that into one of the usb ports it opens up the iphotos on the sd card just fine and I can upload from there.  I know I can just use the card reader, but I really like of being able to just put the sd card directly into the laptop.

Dell Inspiron 7720 :: Webcam Doesn't Work In Windows 8

Mar 3, 2013

When I turn my Dell Inspiron 7720 on, integrated webcam often does not work. Camera app in Windows 8 shows "there's a problem with a camera", other apps also show error messages or just a black screen.

After several resets the camera may start to work properly till the next reset. The camera is always shown in the Device Manager without errors and in the USBView I see that at least USB descriptors are correct. Moreover, after several disable/enable cycles in device manager the camera may start to work.

I've created two HDD partitions and installed Windows 7 Pro and Windows 8 Pro (both from original ISO files downloaded from MSDN). On clear Win 8 the camera shows the same problem, but on Win 7 it works properly.

There is no camera driver for Inspiron 7720 on the Dell web-site, thus I've used standard Microsoft driver on both Win 7 and Win 8.

I'm still not sure is it a hardware problem, because it is reproduced only with Windows 8. The computer was initially sold with Ubuntu, but Windows 8 is in the list of supported OS.

Camera IDs are: VID = 0C45 (Sonix), PID = 648D, REV = 2206.

Dell Inspiron 15 3542 :: Update Program Doesn't Work?

Dec 28, 2014

I want to install a program that automatically installs the drivers from the dell website. I thought that Dell Update was such program, but it doesn't work. There are drivers that need updating since I installed them on the 19.12.2014 from the dell website, but the program says "Your system is up to date", even after manual scan. What's strange is that the latest Dell Update version on the website is 1.3, but the program updates itself to 1.4.

Dell Latitude E6400 :: Windows 7 Doesn't Detect Native Resolution Correctly?

Feb 15, 2013

So I just had Windows 7 reinstalled as my harddrive died. But after the reinstall, Windows 7 only detects my laptops native resolution (recommended resolution) as 1280x800.

I know this laptop has the 1440x900 display, I have coworkers with the same laptop and their display shows the "recommended" is 1440x900, and I know that was the case before I lost my drive and got a new one with a reinstall.

This laptop has the NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M adapter, and I have the latest driver for this from NVIDIA.

Why does windows think my native resolution is 1280x800. I can use the NVIDIA driver to force it to go to 1440x900, which works. I was just wondering why it is doing this. Is there some inf package that I need from Dell?

Dell XPS 12 :: Boot Up Laptop Keyboard Not Work Correctly

Nov 8, 2014

Sometimes when I boot up my Dell XPS 12 laptop the keyboard doesn't work correctly.  Certain keys don't type letters, sorta like the CTRL key or Windows key is stuck down.  I have tried a lot of different things (pressing various keys, checking system logs, check keyboard status, etc.) and the only thing that works is to reboot the laptop.  Most of the time this fixes the problem, but it is annoying to have to reboot when this happens.  I have upgraded the drivers to the latest versions available on the Dell website.

Dell Inspiron N5110 :: Touchpad Doesn't Work When Computer Is Plugged In

Aug 18, 2014

Okay...so, a while back, my computer had a problem where the computer would say that it's "plugged in, not charging." I fixed this by getting a new adapter. ([URL]...)

While the charging problem is fixed, whenever I plug my computer in with this adapter, the mouse becomes erratic. I can do basic navigation, then the cursor flips out and flies over what I'm about to click, so aiming for anything is like running on ice.  I read a few things online as to what this is, and  wound up updating my mouse driver and BIOS, even "releasing flea power" (Either I did it wrong or it didn't work) This has done nothing for this problem. I don't want to have to replace this computer. This is a Dell Inspiron N5110
