I bought this 15z 5523 in 2012 with i3 and Windows 8 mainly because of WiDi but since then haven't been able to install it. Not sure what am I supposed to do as each time I get a message stating my wireless adapter is not supported.
When I did a check, learnt I have Dell wireless 1703 802.11 network adapter is not supported for Intel WiDi. I am not sure how can I enable my laptop for WiDi. .
I've upgrated to Win 8 and the Intel WiDi program isn't working. I downloaded all the latest drivers and tried to install it again but didn't work. A message appearing on screen tells me that InstallShield Wizard canceled because the platform isn't compatible with Intel(R) WiDi or the application is in use.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI cannot install a driver for Intel HD Graphics 4000 on my Inspiron 7520 / i7 (Windows 8 64bit).
I downloaded the driver (11/1/2012, 9.17.10.2843.A02) [URL] .....
But I get an error message: "This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software.".
The same driver works fine on my second Inspiron 7520 / i5 (Windows 8 64bit).
Why I'm not able to install the driver? because of different processor? i7?
I am trying to reinstall Windows 8 on my Inspiron 15Z 5523. I recently got the restore media from Dell with a Windows 8 install disk, but the disk does not have drivers present to access the hard drive/SSD array. Every time I try to install it, it says there is a driver missing.
I originally had tried to restore the system, and I reformatted the hard drive with Dell's utility, but then I ran into a problem because the Dell utility to create recovery media only produced one disk (it did not give me the system image, so I had nothing to restore).
I cannot get Windows 8 reinstalled (nor any other version of Windows) on it. What do I need to do to load the HDD/SDD RAID Drivers on the computer to install Windows?
I've recently bought an Inspiron 15Z 5523 (Win 8) and started experiencing ghost clicks on the touch screen (primarily on the left side of the screen). Once it starts happening, it pretty much makes it impossible to use the laptop since it starts to click/zoom/scroll randomly continuously. Leaving it alone wont fix it. I have to turn off the laptop via the power button and the problem fixes itself sometimes after turning it back on, but at other times, have to leave it off for longer. I have also tried wiping the screen clean, but doesn't work either.
How can I disable the touch screen temporarily?

I just got my new Dell Inspiron 5523 laptop last week and have noticed that it will frequently just shut down on me. It isn't plugged in, doesn't feel hot and I don't even have anything up but IE. What is going on? A brand new laptop shouldn't be acting this way...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI had just closed it the other night after charging it. Then there was nothing - no boot, no LED with charger, no fan. I checked and the charger is definitely functioning, so I worry that this is a problem with the motherboard.
Since it's an ultrabook, I haven't been able to remove flea power since the battery is embedded into the laptop.I wonder if it would be possible for a technician to come have a look at it ASAP?
I would boot from USB but the USB device doesn't appear in the list of bootable device.... I also upgrade my bios to the latest version: A02 but it doesn't solve the problem.... What could I do?
Also I was thinking to upgrade using a bios of similar model like the XPS 15z, could give problem use a different model bios?
I have a brand new Inspiron 5523 Laptop which came with Windows 8 on it. After using it for a couple of weeks I absolutely hate this new OS and want to downgrade to Windows 7 Pro so it matches the OS on my desktop.I have run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to check compatibility and the following state "We do not have compatibility information about this device"
Intel Centrino Wireless N 2230
Microsoft XPS Document Writer
Qualcomm Atheros AR8161 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller (INDIS 6.30)
Synaptics SMbus Driver
Question 1 - Is it going to be possible to get a Windows 7 Pro Compatible Driver for the above items?
Question 2 - Where can I find a step by step instruction guide to downgrading to Windows 7 Pro?
Question 3 - In addition to the SATA Hard Drive it also has a 32GB Solid State Drive which I understand is used for caching. Will the SSD also be compatible with Windows 7 and provide the same function automatically?
Today suddenly when I press the power button laptop wont turn on at all. It is also plugged in.
I hear people saying when this happens they say remove the battery and hold the power button for 15 seconds but the battery is built in and not removable
Any way my laptop is just 5 months years old and what might causes this problem now?
I'm facing the similar issue on my laptop Insipiron15Z 5523.
Before the issue got popped up, i was ran into waves in the screen and it was persisted for more than a minute so i thought of something went wrong and made forced Shut down by long pressing the power button.
Enclosed the image for quick diagnostics.
Then again i was attempted to switch on my lap,following odd things happened.
1.After switching on, LED lights of Power button,favorites,Music were flashed - usual - nothing got worked.
2.Not got any response, after sometime i heard long beep sound at equal intervals without gap.
3.Beep sound never shuts down and i press the power button in single stroke,machine got switched(not long press)
4.Next time i was attempt to run for diagnostics mode like pressing the F2 & F3 button,no use.
My Laptop is non responsive and am not getting any indications on my screen.
Inspiron Ultrabook 15z 5523...A few of my keyboard keys, including the spacebar, stopped working for 48 hours (estimate). I tried everything I could think of and everything support told me to do. restarted. nope. support program that checks keyboard: nothing. Suddenly keys work again, but in the process Dell sent out a guy to replace the keyboard. He replaced it. The new keyboard just did the same thing. Must be a hardware, motherboard issue or something. I need this <ADMIN NOTE: Substitute character removed as per TOU> computer for design/developing/school/projects.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a DELL Inspiron 15z 5523 which intermittently make a repeated series of 5 loud beeps. The support site seems to suggest a problem with the CMOS/Bios coin cell battery. So I presume I need to replace this. Does this sound right?
I have the user manual that shows how to replace this battery (after taking everything apart!) which looks do-able. But I can't find out what kind of coin cell battery I need to buy for replacement.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to make a completely fresh install of Windows 8 on my Inspiron 17R SE. Therefore I made an image with Acronis of all the system partitions (C:(OS) and the others like DIAG etc.).
When installing Windows 8, do I have to consider anything regarding those little partitions? I don't really understand what I can do with them.
i got Dell inspiron with core 2 duo 2.20 ghz with 3 gb ram n 350 hdd. i have deleted all partition on it due to i want to install windows 7now whn i format all drive
i found tht at 56% it gives me an hash file error
it says no hard drive is found wht to do now i create 3 partion still the same prob i found an hidden 3 gb drive using by system file i also deleted now whn i install xp also it gives me a blue screen
and i try installing win 7 it says it givs an error
How do I format my c: and re-install windows 7 again?
I did not get any cd/dvd when I bought my laptop.
My details:
Laptop: Inspiron 15r
OS: Windows 7 Home Basic (64-Bit)
Note: I used to do it every 4-5 months when I had my desktop and windows xp cd.
I am using "Inspiron 15R Notebook (Inspiron 7520), Windows 8, 64-bit, English" I tried partioning the hard drive, unfortunately the OS corrupted and not it throws a boot error.
I have a Win 7 bootable USB. I wanted to boot using USB and install Win 7 rather than Win8. But in the boot options I am not getting options boot from USB.
The notebook comes with an restore disc, but I really would like to have a simple and clean Win8 install, without any unecessary pre-installed stuff and separate partitions for system and personal data.
Can I make a clean installation of Windows 8 on my new Inspiron 15R SE? Does it affect warranty?
Do I need a product key or is it attached to the BIOS and will not be asked when installing from a disc? The drivers on Dell website will keep the SSD mSata and AMD Commutable Graphics working properly or will I need some Dell software to make it happen?
I recently purchased a Dell Inspiron 14z Ultrabook. I am looking to do a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium. I am attempting to boot the installer from a USB drive and keep getting the error:
"A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash Drive, please insert it now.
Note: If the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD Drive, you can safely remove it for this step."
This is also my first time working with a computer that has an SSD drive in addition to the main hard drive. Is there anything special that needs to be done when doing a clean install in regards to the SSD? I just want to make sure that I will be able to get the SSD operating the same way as it currently is.
Whenever I try to install it,it gives me
"you don't meet minimum requirements.setup will now exit"
I think I made a mistake in purchasing my Inspiron 15 without a CD drive. This laptop came with Windows 8 (I hate it) and I would like to install Windows 7 (I love it), but not sure that I can. Forget it. I am not thinking. I just need to attach an external drive.

Now there wasn't any drivers that other recommended like chipset/system drivers available when searching by service tag. However if you search by model (600m) a lot more come up. Im not sure if I should download any of them.
My problem is it cannot connect to the internet and the ethernet port is dead. I have no error messages. I tried LAN connections using an ethernet cable to another machine and it does not take.
I am running Intel PROSet/Wireless and it does see nearby networks but cannot connect. It says configuration failed. I have read all the usual documents for troubleshooting but no solution yet. I have heard there where some flaws with this model and some of the equipment.
