Acer :: Upgrading CPU In Aspire 7520
Dec 17, 2008I have the Acer Aspire 7520 Laptop with the AMD Turion X2 TK-55 1.8Ghz Socket One.
Using PC Wizard it says I have a Acer Fuquene motherboard and nVidia nForce 560 Chipset. My question is, will this accept any of the AMD Socket One Processors? I was looking at maybe getting a TL-68 2.4Ghz..
I originally bought this computer for my wife so I wasnt too picky on the specs, but now Im finding it more useful than my high powered desktop since I can take it anywhere around the house I want. Only problem is that the laptop just needs a little more grunt for some of the encoding and stuff I do occasionally..

Dell :: Bluetooth Took A Dive..
Jul 5, 2009I have a Vostro 1500 w/ Vista SP1. I've used Bluetooth extensively in the past, putting both a keyboard and mouse to use on a daily basis. I recently went out of state and didn't use it for a period of 10 days or so.
On my flight back I had turned the wireless card and bluetooth off to save battery life on the plane. Upon my return, I turned that switch back on.
Unfortunately, my computer fails to recognize my bluetooth devices now. The bluetooth light is on, however it doesn't work. When I search for devices, it says none found.
In device manager, no driver or bluetooth device is listed. When I tried to re-install the drivers, I receive a prompt from the installation program asking me to turn my bluetooth software on by using the radio switch or Fn+F2 or I have to cancel installation.

Dell Inspiron 7520 :: Not Booting - No LED Lights

Dell Inspiron 7520 SE FHD :: Won't Boot From Usb Drive
Jan 20, 2013I've recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 7520 SE FHD and following the indications on the drivers download page I upgraded Bios to A9 version. Now I'm having 2 issues, one minor and one that bothers me pretty hard.
1. I can't boot fro USB stick when I try to install WIN 7 again. If I have the bootable usb stick with WIN 7 (created with Microsoft USB DVD Bootable Tool) plugged in the usb port and I press either F12 for boot options or F2 for Setup everything blocks and won't have any other option but to keep the turn on button pressed until the laptop turns off.
I also tried F12/F2 without the USB stick plugged in and I can't find the option to boot from USB neither under F12 menu or Boot menu when pressing F2 for Setup.
2. After doing the BIOS upgrade, the first thing I see, the black page with the Dell Logo seems to be a little broken, meaning the logo is bigger then it used to be and so is the blue line that shows the loading status below it.
Dell :: Inspiron 15R 7520 - Battery Not Charging?
Feb 5, 2015over the past week has only charged intermittently. Sometimes I needed to just twist or nudge the power cord in order for the battery to power up. Other times the message stating that I needed a dell adaptor came up.Yesterday the laptop stopped charging and the battery has reduced to zero. It will not recharge and is therefore no use to me as it needs to be constantly plugged in.I have tried a different power supply (same type) and that will not charge the laptop either. Both chargers are the official Dell ones that were supplied with the machine. I suspect it is not the battery either as it took me over an hour to get any power into the machine. Of course it is out of warranty at almost two years old but has been a great machine and I'm loathe to just scrap it.I have another Dell laptop ( a Vostro) which has suffered exactly the same fate and stopped charging after less than 2 years.Three questions:
1) Am I just unlucky that the same fault has developed in two machines, or is it more common problem in Dell laptops?
2) Is there a way to have it repaired by Dell? I realise i would have to pay, but there menus keep sending me back to buy an extended warranty which I am not eligible for.3) If Dell won't repair (or the cost is prohibitive), Is it possible to disassemble the machine and replace the socket that the power supply plugs into, or would it have to be the whole motherboard that is replaced?

Nov 17, 2014My Inspiron 15R SE which I purchased from Dell Canada in February 2013 recently acted up on me. It was just like any other day, I run the laptop battery down, then plug in the power adapter when its low.
This time however, the laptop just suddenly shutdown (not through Windows, like just up and died). I tried to power it up again and each time, barely 30 seconds after it powers up, it just up and dies.
I had to do work on it so I thought I let it sit for awhile to charge the battery, thinking that I can run it on battery at least. But alas I left it there for even a whole night and the battery did not even charge a drop.
I then tried removing the battery and only running on power adapter only but it won't even start. I have also tried another power adapter but the same issue persists so I can safely rule out the power adapter.
The power port doesn't look damaged either seeing as I have always loyally bought Dell throughout the years, and I really need to get work done (it is my primary computer).
Dell Inspiron 7520 :: Quickset And Windows 7 Theme
Apr 14, 2013I've recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 7520 and installed Windows7. All Dell latest drivers were installed without a problem, however
whenever quickset is being executed windows revert to the default theme complaining that quickset is not compatible with current theme.
The only change i've made in my theme is the task bar color (i've not installed any third party theme). The above is happening each time
I boot the laptop and quickset runs at startup. I get the same error in every power plan, when i have the laptop in AC and when it's on battery.

Mar 1, 2013I've just bought Dell Inspiron 7520 with windows 8 pre-installed. I'm facing the problem that the wireless connection all of sudden disconnects and won't connect again unless I go through trouble shooting to fix the network problem or by restarting the laptop. I'm sure that the problem is with the laptop cause I tried it on different networks and tried different devices on the same network.

Mar 15, 2013I just bought an Insprion 7520, and upgraded the windows os to ultimate. However after reading few reviews of this os, I wanted to switch back to Home Premium so that it would be like I bought it. However after installing Home Premium, some of the drivers that I downloaded from the Dell Drivers and Downloads website were unable to install. These problems have also lowered the laptops score in the Windows Performance Index. The GRAPHICS score went from 6.6 to 5.6 and RAM socre 7.9 to 7.7.
-Intel Rapid Start Technology : "The system does not meet the requirements" (It did when I bought it. What has changed I cannot understand.)
-Seagate Firmware v 0005DEM1, A05 : Got a FAILED message in the dos screen.
-Dell-Hardware version GS002D, A02 : Got a message saying "Not compatible with x64 systems".
I have the service tag and the express service code if needed.

Jan 27, 2013I 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.
