Dell Inspiron 1525 :: Windows Vista - Internet Stops Working After Few Minutes

Feb 6, 2013

After connecting to the internet on my laptop(Dell inspiron 1525, Windows Vista), the internet connection will work great for 5 minutes or less than it slows down drastically or essentially not working at all.  If I disconnect and reconnect it will work again but just for a short amount of time.  The wireless connection works great on other laptops, tablets and mobile.  I have Mcafee antivirus, and it could not detect any malware or viruses. Tried restoring the computer to factory settings and the internet stays connected for what seem a few minutes longer.

Lenovo P/Y/Z Series :: IdeaPad P500 - Sound Stops Working After 5 Minutes

Jul 14, 2014

All of a sudden, my Lenovo Ideapad P500 (running Win 8) is having sound issues.  The sound will stay on for 5-10 minutes when I start it up or put it to sleep and then wake it up.  After that, the sound will just quit working?  FYI, the Windows 8 updates that were part of the Microsoft monthly security fixes were installed last week and the problem started today?

Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S Series :: WiFi Stops Working After Few Minutes Of Restart

Jan 20, 2014

The issue was in regards to WiFi not working properly on my Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga S1. After a restart my computer's internet (with WiFi on) would work for a few minutes then it would stop. Long story short, I tried various things, and even uninstalled Norton and other software which I thought may have been a culprit but still the same issue. I also used a USB to Ethernet port (since there is no built in Ethernet port in the ThinkPad Yoga) and connected my computer with a cable and disabled the WiFi to see if it was the wireless hardware not working. Unfortunately still the same issue.
 
Finally I noticed in the Windows Task Manager a process called "Discover.exe". It turned out this was using some noticeable amount of CPU and wondered what this was doing as I hadn't seen that before. I found out that this was a piece of software bundled in with my computer called Lenovo EMC Storage Connector. I'm not sure why it was running but I ended this process.
 
Suddenly my internet was working again! This time no problems. I uninstalled this software utility to make sure this doesn't cause this issue again.

My Dell inspiron n5010(4 years old)  is getting auto shutdown after 3-4 minutes..  I have noticed that my cooling fan is not working continuously... It frequently starts and working for 2-3 sec then again stops .. again after sometimes it gets started....  I have already opened up my laptop and cleaned all the dust ... but the story continues... should I have to replace heat-sink?

Apple :: MBP Wifi - Connect And Browse For A Couple Minutes - Sporadically, The Internet Will Just Stop Working

Feb 27, 2010

I recently went on a plane trip back home and I am having major issues with wifi connection in my family's house.

They have AT&T router/modem (combo?) and no one else in the house has any issues connecting with it.

What happens is I can connect and browse for a couple minutes or so, but sporadically, the internet will just stop working (not the wifi, it still shows my connection exists). I just won't be able to browse or make use of the internet at all!

I wonder if I might have banged it up or something on the plane ride? Since other laptops in the household are not having wifi issues, I am lead to believe it is just me.

Dell Inspiron N5110 :: WiFi Stops Working After A While

Feb 20, 2013

I own an Inspiron N5110, and dunno why, but the wireless stops working after a while. I had this problem in both windows 7 and ubuntu, and why this problem occurs. 

And when it stops, it really means STOP, cause it stops detecting networks, when usually there are like a dozen of these around, and no matter what i do, how many times i disable and re enable it, it never seems to work, until i restart my laptop.

In ubuntu, this problem occurs whenever i download large files, and in windows 7, whenever id start any virtual machine.

Dell Inspiron 1525 :: Will Not Boot Up Running Vista OS

Nov 26, 2012

My computer is out of warranty.  On Thursday, my Dell Inspiron 1525 (bought in 2008) running Vista Operating System was working perfectly.  No issues at all.  On Friday morning, I went to turn on the computer and the 2 blue lights on the bottom left (the power and the one beside it) light up, the computer sounds like it is going to boot and then it beeps once and dies.  It will continue to do this over and over every few seconds until I turn off the power manually.

I have tried the trick of taking out the battery and the cord, pressing the power button and then plugging the battery and cord back in, but it still did not work.  The computer will not boot using just the cord (and not the battery) and vice versa.

Dell :: Clean Install (Vista Home Basic)Inspiron 1525

Jan 19, 2009

I want to do a clean Vista install on the above notebook, and if the time comes, restore the setup (OS) to the default config with minimal effort. Read a lot of threads on how to do this, but just need some help/advice on the following.

Currently the HDD partitioned as:
110MB (EISA Config), FAT16 Pri
10GB, RECOVERY (D:), NTFS Pri
136GB, OS (C:), NTFS Pri Act
2.5GB MEDIADIRECT, FAT32

Discs supplied with laptop: Vista Reinstall DVD, Dell Drivers & Utilities, Roxio, Dell MediaDirect

What I want is to do a clean Vista install to the OS (C:) partition (formatting it), but still keep the other partitions in case I have to resell my notebook. My main concern is not being able to restore the factory image back to C .....

Dell Inspiron 1525 :: Won't Turn On - Vista Screen Saying Configuring Updates

Feb 28, 2013

My Dell Inspiron 1525 has suddenly decided not to turn on. I get up to a Windows Vista screen where it says "Configuring updates stage 3/3" and then it restarts itself again and again. I can't get it to do anything else. Before it wasn't even getting that far and it was restarting itself and giving me the option to launch startup repair which I did. I tried to restore the system but I was told that there were no system restore points. I turned it off and on again and it then started to take me up to the configuring updates page but no further than that and I no longer get the launch startup repair option. I have also been having a problem with the battery where every time I turn it on it says "ac power adapter wattage and type cannot be determined" and then won't charge so I can only run it when plugged in but at the moment I would just like to get it to turn on!

Dell Inspiron 15R :: Laptop Working Very Slow - Takes Almost 15 Minutes To Startup

Dec 6, 2014

I have dell inspiron 15R, 1TB HDD, i7 processor, windows 8.1. My C drive has 500GB(approx) memory out of which 200GB(approx) is free

It used to work fast but suddenly it became very slow. I tried restarting , it got shut down but was unable to start. So I ran diagnostic test which gave an error in hard disk with error code :2000-0142.  The next morning I ran the diagnostic test again and it ran successfully without any error.

I formatted it from my recovery disk and it took me almost whole night as the formatting process was also very slow. My laptop still works very slow. It takes almost 15mins for start-up and my applications are also opening too slow.

Acer Aspire E1 :: Touch Randomly Stops Working - Windows 8.1

Mar 5, 2015

I have had my aspire e1 touch for a couple months now and a couple weeks in it randomly wouldn't detect the touch ability.  I have to shut the laptop down and back on again for it to work (simple restart won't work)  It's a new computer so I haven't upgraded any os, it's running with the Windows 8.1 it came with and I have chrome as the browser.  It seems to happen when I wake it from sleep, not in the middle of using it.  When the touch is not working, the device manager doesn't even detect that touch is an option (it's hidden, but grey and cannot be enabled)....

Dell Inspiron 3521 :: Suddenly Slowed Down After Working Fine For 30 Minutes To One Hour

Oct 31, 2014

My laptop (Dell Inspiron 15 3521 model) was working fine until this week. It suddenly slowed down. 

Once I turn it on, it works fine but after 30 mins - 1hr, it begins to slow down. While I type words on my keyboard, it would take a minute or so for them to appear on screen in MS Word. My browser would also slow down in loading. When I try to close programs, they would go "NOT RESPONDING" and when I try to open programs, it would take minutes for them to open up. I also tried plugging in a flash drive and the laptop took 3 minutes to recognize it.

What caused this sudden slow down? Is it because of an update? Or does my computer need repair? I've only used it for 7 months.

Dell Inspiron N4050 :: Touchpad Stops Working Properly Every Time Plug In External HD That Is AC Powered

The touchpad of my Inspiron N4050 stops working properly everytime i plug my external HD that is AC powered or the HDMI cable. It doesn't matter if the AC of the laptop is connected or not, the touchpad becomes impossible to use. I tried using it in other places thinking of an energy problem at my place, but it still occurs. Other laptops work normaly with the external harddrive and the HDMI.

Acer Aspire V3-572g :: HDMI Ports Stops Working After Windows Updates

Jan 26, 2015

I have an Acer Aspire V3-572g. My laptop came with windows 8.1 installed already. Currently, my pc is being reset to factory settings because I can not figure out how to keep the hdmi from going out after windows updates. The only way I can keep get the hdmi port to work is the factory reset it. The only way from keeping the hdmi working is by turning off windows updater. However, I'd like to figure out how to keep the hdmi working without doing so. My graphics card is Nvidia 840 M. Here are a list of things I've done after my laptop stops recognizing the hdmi.
 
Uninstall and reinstall the display drivers, both from intel and Nvidia
Update the drivers to be up to date
Downloaded intel's utility manager to keep driver update to date
Downloaded factory installed drivers from Acer's website
Contacting microsoft and have them remotely connect to my laptop
Restored back my laptop to previous working conditions (although the hdmi never worked by going to a restore point)
Swapped hdmi cords and displays

After several hours of researching and trying different things I'm stumped. I bought this computer with the sole purpose of connecting it to a TV. I've also had this issue with another laptop which I returned. This problem isn't a hardware problem as I'm connected to the same monitor with an old desktop using the same cords. I'm guessing there is a compatability issue with windows and the display drivers when there is an update.

Dell Inspiron 1525 :: Slow Working With 4GB RAM

Apr 4, 2013

I have an Inspiron 1525 with 4gb RAM and 285gb hard drive (158gb free). Processor is 2.17gHz, dual core.  O/S Vista.  Up until very recently, it's been running fine.  But within the last week or two, it has gotten veerrryyy slow.  The fan seems to be running more often (maybe it's my imagination), and the video is halting even for a simple game of Free Cell.  I have ccleaner which I run regularly.  I have also run two different spyware programs and Norton Utilities optimizer.

I just had to replace my desktop computer a few months ago.  I certainly don't want to have to replace this one too.
