Dell Inspiron 15R :: Shutting Down Not Long After Boot?

Mar 26, 2013

I have a problem with my 15R. It shuts down "for no reason". Right now it takes him up to 20 s to shut down so there's no time for any diagnostic software:

it shutdown in BIOS too
it shutdown with battery only and AC only
it shutdown with HDD, CD, SD card reader, WIFI... and everything else that was unpluggable
it DOES NOT shutdown without RAM
it shutdown with any combination of my 2 RAM DIMMs
after a long break it needs ~20 s to shutdown, 10 after a short break

I suspect it's a thermistor as the fan makes a lot of noise even in BIOS. So my question is - what could be the problem and  where are 15R thermistors located so I could check if they are fine.

Lenovo T400 / T500 :: T420 Takes Too Long To Hibernate When Close The Lid - Random Device Noise On Boot Up

Sep 3, 2013

Ever since i've wiped the machine, i've been having these two problems. When I close the lid, it used to go to sleep straight away, but now I can see the sleep light (and the power button) flash and flash, then it goes to sleep.
When waking up it goes through the lenovo startup screen and resuming windows, then it asks for a password, before I used to open the lid and it would ask me for the password straight away. I know it was going to sleep because I could hear the beep straight away when I closed and opened it, but now it just takes too long.
 
Also, everytime I boot up into windows or resume into windows from a sleep state, I can hear the device noise, like something is being plugged in/out. But there is nothing being plugged in or out at the time. I can't get to device manager quick enough to see what it is that is causing it. But all drivers seem okay.

Also noticed, when the lid is closed, randomly the laptop turns off (hear the beep) an then turns back off again.
 
T420 model number: 4180-PR1 with OS: Windows 7 Pro 64 bit

Dell Inspiron 14z :: Laptop Getting Very Hot And Shutting Down

Jul 9, 2012

New inspiron 14z. It seems that the fan is very noisy almost all the time the computer is on. It gets louder and softer according to what programs are open, but it's never really quiet.The real fun starts, however, once she opens a graphics-intensive program . The computer gets so hot it's hard to touch it, and after a while it'll just shut down itself without any warning.Is this a common issue with the Inspiron 14z? What should we do?

Dell Inspiron N5010 :: Shutting Down Constantly

Apr 4, 2013

I have replaced mother board and LCD of my Inspiron N5010. After replacement, it started to shut down constantly, usually 5-10 min after start up. I have run diagnostics, it showed error 2000-0413 (LCD cable not detected), but could not finish all diagnostic process, cause it shut down again during CPU memory test.  

Is it possible that because of this error computer shut downs then working or it is two separated problems? Can it be that only cable connector causing error or it is a defect of new mother board?

Nov 17, 2014

My laptop will randomly turn off. I don't think that it is overheating because sometimes it just shuts off like 1 minutes after i turn it on. I don't feel any heat coming from the fan or anything. When it turns off it doesn't go through the shutdown process it just turns off. Iv'e tried a factory reset and a complete virus/malware scan.

Dell Inspiron 15 7537 :: Taking So Long To Start From Sleep?

Dec 27, 2014

I'm trying to understand why my new Inspiron 15 7000 series takes so long to start after being put to sleep as I don't believe it should take this long.

The power settings are configured to go into sleep mode whenever the lid is closed or the power button is pressed.  If, after closing the lid, I re-open the lid within a short space of time, the laptop bursts into life almost immediately.  However, if it is left longer, then when opening the lid, nothing happens and I have to (briefly) press the power button.  It then takes about 30 seconds for the windows desktop to appear.  This is simply too long!

I've also noticed that if the laptop is left idle and it "powers off", which is set to sleep mode then it again takes about 30 seconds to resume when pressing the power button.

The laptop is running Windows 8.1 64 bit and has 8gb of RAM and an i7-4510U CPU.

I have a 5 year old Acer laptop running windows 7, which is faster at starting from hibernate mode than this Dell Inspiron, which suggests that the Dell is actually hibernating, however none of the power settings are set for it to do this.

How to get this Dell Inspiron to start in a reasonable time from sleep mode as 30 seconds is not acceptable.

Dell Inspiron 1545 :: Shutting Off Randomly But Isn't Overheating

Jan 18, 2015

My wife's Inspiron 1545 from late 2008 is having a new issue wherein it is randomly shutting off but not due to heat.  The computer will shut off when not connected to AC power randomly.  Sometimes it will last 10 minutes, other time 40.  What's odd the is computer reads anywhere from 50% - 85% battery life left.  

I'm certain it's not overheating because it doesn't get hot.  Also,I disassembled rear cover and reset the CPU cooler with new thermal paste as a precaution yet the problem persists.

I ran the boot hardware diagnostic test all the way through with no errors.  The harddrive has no audible clicking/crunching which usually indicates an HDD headed south.

Dell Inspiron N5050 :: Keep Shutting Down At Random Times?

Jan 7, 2015

I have a dell Inspiron n5050. It was a hand down from my dad who hardly used, only used it for check his work schedule. Well it was working for years and then I was playing games like league of legend, sims etc. It never shut down till I maybe late 2014. I would turn it on, everything is all good, I can log in. But maybe 5-10 maybe more minutes of being on, it goes black or a message comes up saying "the instruction at referenced memory at could not be written " I don't know what is happening or what I done wrong. I can't get a new laptop or anything due to money issues at the moment.

Dell Inspiron 7520 :: System Has Rebooted Without Cleanly Shutting Down First

Jan 27, 2013

I have a new Dell Inspiron 15R SE (7520) with Windows 8  having issues shutting down and waking up from sleep.

When I go to the Charms bar -> Click settings -> Power -> Shutdown , the laptop seems to start the shutdown process , the screen turns off but it seems to stay on (Power button, activity leds  on). No matter how much time I wait it will not shutdown and I have to long-press the Power button to do a hard shutdown.

In the Windows Event Viewer I see the following Critical Error:

Critical (kernel power, event ID 41): The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.

Same problem when I close the lid, the computer will not come back from Sleep.

Strangely enough, I created a shortcut button on my desktop for faster shutdown that works perfectly:  C:WindowsSystem32shutdown.exe /s /t 0

I wanted to check here before I did a re-install as most of the information I have found on Google people just seem to end up fixing it re-installing.

Dell Inspiron 1525 :: Laptop Restarts Instead Of Hibernating Or Shutting Down

Dec 20, 2009

I have a 1525 laptop that wants to stay awake most of the time.  I have it set to hibernate when the cover closes.  It behaves most of the time, but occasionally it decides to restart instead of hibernating.  When it's acting up, it will do the restart if you try to put it in hibernation, sleep or if you try to shut it down.  The only way to kill the thing  is to do a hard shutdown using the power button. It's annoying to say the least, since you can't just close it and walk away.  If it restarts with the cover closed, it gets way too hot.

Dell Inspiron 15R 5520 :: Long Beep Sound After Pressed Power Button And Progress Bar Loads

Dec 1, 2014

I am using Dell Insipron 15R 5520 Laptop Windows 7. Last few days I am getting a long beep sound after I pressed the power button and the Dell progress bar loads. And if I press power button, its turning off. Later I've pressed F8 key to login in Wiindows Normal Mode, its opening Windows. So every time i've to press F8 key to login. Sometimes the beep sound continues and not logging in normal mode or in Safe mode. 

I thought it might be RAM issue and I checked 'System Settings' in Control Panel, it shows the usable RAM is 2.77GB of 8GB. 

I went to Dell laptop service center near by my location and they said its keyboard problem, they charging too much amount to replace keyboard. but my keyboard is working properly.

Dell :: How Long For An Exchange From?

Aug 23, 2009

For those of you who have had a faulty laptop and had it exchanged could you let me know how long it takes?

I purchased a Dell Mini 10v from the outlet well over a month ago. It arrived July 14 and was faulty straight out of the box (crackling, hissing noise). It was sent to the depot, returned several days later,

and when I turned it on the same problem was still there. It's some problem with the speakers not working properly. I call Dell again. The laptop was sent to the depot a second time--it just got returned a couple days ago .....

Does this mean they are making it? Or does it mean its getting all the stuff (e.g hard drive) to make it?
