Dell Inspiron 3541:: WiFi And Bluetooth Driver Software Not Detected
Jul 15, 2014
I have recently purchased dell  Inspiron 3541 , installed windows 8.1 64bit in it , downloaded all the drivers from [URL] ...... When I try to install the WiFi + Bluetooth Driver (DW1704_Driver_Broadcom_A00_WIN8.164-SETUP_ZPE.exe ) , it's asking to press the wireless switch (Fn+PrtSc) to activate the Bluetooth , the wireless switch does enabling/disabling the bluetooth but the driver software is not detecting it and wont install Â
I purchased a laptop (Dell inspiron 15R N5110) with Windows 7 Home Basic edition, but when i installed Windows 8 i had to download many drivers, but i still can't detect the bluetooth.
when i try to download any driver related to the bluetooth or when i try to connect any device to my laptop, the bluetooth is not detected.
I Have purchased a Dell Inspiron 15 3537. I installed windows 7 64 bit. I cant find the drivers for the wifi n/w card.I tried installing the windows 8 wifi driver for this model but its not working.
recently purchased a Inspiron 15R 5521 from Dell Australia and took me a few weeks to install and setup the the system the way I want.
Today, I tried to enable bluetooth but the slider won't move to On mode, so I checked Device Manager and Bluetooth device was labeled as Unknown device.
So I checked my service tag numbered driver updates and there's a Intel Centrino Advance-N 2230 15.5.6.48 A02 driver update, so tried updating to that driver. But it returned device not configured correctly and prompting me to reinstall driver. Reinstalling driver fails with code 1 error.
Maybe something physically wrong with the Bluetooth side of the hardware ??? Anyway to confirm such without doing a full factory image restore as it took ages for me to setup the system the way I want !
I've tried, uninstalling the bluetooth device from device manager and restarting Win 8 and reinstalling device via hardware change detection Tried uninstalling Centrino driver and installing previous version of the driver
below are screenshots of what I see
My service tagged list of drivers showing Centrino Advance-N 2230 15.5.6.48 A02 driver
Due to an update for the Bluetooth driver, my Laptop Inspiron N5010 has gone into a Repair Option Loop. Primary suggestion is to deal with the RegBack folder, something I haven't tried just yet. 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 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.
Before someone suggest it, 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.

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.

Seems like the Tech people at Dell hate competition so they make it more difficult for you to mess with the computer.

I installed win7(64bit) on 15d103tx..but lan wire is not detected by the laptop...when i checked in network adapters,there were only two bluetooth device there...wifi is also not available....
I have a problem with my L530 and  the WiFi Connection. When I start the computer and see the Login-Screen of Windows 8.1 the networkicon left to the betteryicon have a red cross. After I log into Windows 8.1, I have no wireless connection availible. In the devicemanager is no wirelesscard listet, also there are no other problems with other devices.  After restarting, power off/on, removing the battery and so on about 1.000.000 times the wireless card is pretty working to the next shut down. So my workaround was to use the standby mode instead shut down after I've finished working.  UNTIL yesterday! Now I can't enable the wireless card... This card is installled: ThinkPad Wireless LAN (11bgn, bg)  I've tried the following things: - UEFI is on version 2.56 - loading UEFI defaults, save and reboot - remove the battery and power plug -> push the power button for 10 sec - disable hybrid shut down in windows - booting with ubuntu 13.04 -> no wireless hardware available... Nothings works...
I have HP Envy M6 1225 dx. The Ralink wifi driver provided with it served me well till a year. But now, i don't due to windows update or something else, i'm having problem with it. Sometimes, the driver works well, but most and most of the time, windows have problem with the driver. It, either mentions " driver or hardware related problem" while i troubleshoot it, or sometimes it doesn't even detect the device in device manager. I even tried reinstalling the driver by the driver which i was provided with the laptop bt the same problem still persists. I'd like to know whether the windows updates is disturbing it because once i'd found the Ralink wifi driver update on the windows update list which had created problem and i uninstalled it. Now i cant find that driver update in the windows updates list.
I'm using HP Pavilion Dv4 Â 3106tx. I do'nt know what happened but out of no where my wifi adapter somehow stopped working. whenever I enable my wifi button, the bluetooth only works and the wifi icon that usually shows on the lower right of the Taskbar doesn't show. I also checked the Device manager>Network Adapters, the wifi adapter is not there. I also tried "Scan for hardware changes" but still there is no Wifi adapter showing up. Â Right now I'm just connecting through ethernet for internet connection because my wifi is not working.
I used a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit installation DVD to replace Windows 7 Professional 64-bit on my Elitebook 8740w. In the end, I used a clean installation as the upgrade option ended up with a fail error. However, after doing the clean install, it can't detect any wifi. What drivers am I likely to need to download and re-install?
1. The damn CPU whining? I know everyone has it. Dell said last time I called that they're working on some way to fix it. The new A09 Bios didn't seem to do anything for me, or anyone else apparently according to dell's support forum. What's up with that?
2. My laptop wobbles on the top right and bottom left corners. it only wobbles if I use my 6cell batt, and it doesn't wobble w/ the 9 Cell. So does that mean the 6cell's rubber feet thing on the top right corner isn't high enough? Can dell fix that?
3. The "increase volume" media button thing isn't as responsive as the other ones. i have to press really hard to get it to respond. all the other ones i just tap it lightly, and it works.
Here's some questions that I know Dell has no clue what to do with:
4. I'm currently using Vista Ultimate on this only because I couldn't get my bluetooth driver and my sigmatel audio driver to work properly on XP. since dell hasn't released a xp bluetooth driver, i used WIDCOMM 5.1 stack, and the bluetooth headset and stereo headset drivers would disable the sigmatel drivers. really annoying. cmd51229 says he's gotten it to work:..........................
After updating my ccc to version 14.2 , i get a message saying no amd graphics driver detected and i have to again uninstall the entire AMD CCC using AMD clean up utility to reinstall the amd driver given by HP.The driver provided by HP is very old and doesnt support many new games .  graphic card model: AMD 7670HD pro: i5 2nd gen os:win7 ultimate model pavilion g6 2006tx
I've decided on getting a 1555 but there are a few nice to have's upgrade options, can someone tell me what the advantage are pls?
1) Bluetooth (£35 ~ $58) Apart from allowing me to perhaps transfer files to my mobile phone for example
(which I hardly do) and maybe use a bluetooth mouse without the little dongle. What else can I use it for? I do prefer using a mouse over the touchpad, does the bluetooth use much power from the laptop .....
My dad bought this really cool notebook with gaming entry parts. I was wanting to install the latest driver on the Nvidia webiste but it keeps telling me that the hardware is undetected. I tried uninstalling both the Nvidia and the Intel driver but nothing seems to work. How to stop this error from occuring?
I had to reisntall the factory default software to original. The problem is the Wifi and bluetooth drivers do not install. I tried installing several versions from the lenovo download site but i either get "No Matched Wireless or nothing depending on which one I try to install.
The Laptop is a Lenovo B570, Model Name 1068. Running Windows 7 64 bit.
My grandpa gave me his old insprion 1000 and i wiped it clean and reinstalled windows xp on it. i was hoping to use this computer for my music (itunes, syncing ipods ect.)
but the speakers will not work. i go into the control panel and under the sounds and devices it says that there is no audio device.
i know that this computer has speakers build in and i can see them on the front on the computer. Also when i try and plus external speakers in it doesn't detect them either.
My Laptop model is: Dell Inspiron 15R. It has Intel HD 4000 and AMD 7670M Graphic Card, but only Intel HD 4000 card is detected when I scan for configuration in URL... This means AMD graphic card will not be used during game play ? what should I do to make the AMD card  will be detected when we scan for configuration.
I have purchased the laptop 3 months ago and suddenly from yesterday I am getting no battery detected notification on the battery status icon. My battery is charging and dischaging also but still the notification is shown there. Â I cannot see the status of how much power is left or if the battery is fully charged or not.
I am using Inspiron 15 3000 Series i5 Laptop. Â After sometime the battery status comes back. So its like going and coming back type problem.
I have an Inspiron 5520, with Win 7 Home premium 64 bit and an external Western Digital HDD My passport Essential SE (3.0). The laptop is fairly new, I purchased it last June. From first day it seemed that something was wrong with the connection with the hdd. In case I was even touching the cable of the hdd it was disconnecting for example, and since yesterday it doesn't detect it at all!
The light of the hdd goes on, and I can feel it working, but I get no beep sound on my computer, I dont see the drive on device manager, and in general its nowhere!
I tried the hdd in all four USB ports and nothing. The drive has no problem on other computers (with OS Vista and Win 7). My mouse works perfectly on all four usb ports.I updated the drivers for BIOS and chipset, I run pc check up. I checked both laptop and drive with antivirus and antispyware programs. I reinstalled the driver from WD website.
I have Dell Inspiron 15 series 7000 laptop and I wanted to perform "Dell Backup & Recovery" task.  I have tried connecting My Passport 1 TB external HDD to get back backup. I get "USB Key not detected" message on all the USB ports that I have tried. I have changed the cord also but of no avail. But when connect my 4GB USB pen drive, I do get success. Why do my "My Passport" connections are not recognized?
After cleaning the cooler and replacing new thermal grease on CPU and Video Card my laptop does'nt regognize the battery and some USB ports (I have also instaled the USB driver). What could be the problem?
ive been using a Dell Inspiron 15R 5521 for about 20 months now. Uptil a month back the laptop was working fine. Then it suddenly it has stopped detecting the battery. Once in a while it detects but then goes off again. I had taken it to a Dell store where they tried replacing the battery as the diagnostics showed a battery problem, but changing the battery also did not work. Is the problem related to Windows 8.1 upgrade?
I have a dell inspiron 1545 and my battery is not being detected. I tried uninstalling and re installing the ACPI drivers but it didn't work. This is really getting on my nerves I've bought two batteries trying to get this to work. Every computer I have ever bought from dell has given me problems. Suffice to say this problem is the straw that broke the camels back and I will never be buying another product from dell or conducting business with them in any form.
