I have an Inspiron N7010 that I recently replaced the fan. I am pretty sure I reconnect everything and reassembled but perhaps I missed something.
At start up I get no image and 8 long beeps
Where should I start looking?
My Inspiron N7010 was working fine until 2 days ago. I had it playing a movie through the HDMI port to my TV & then the video started to freeze up. Starting the next day, when I tried to start it up, it beeps 8 times & goes to a black screen, then eventually it turns off. I opened it up & re-seated the CMOS battery & checked all the ribbons. Tried holding the "d" key while powering on, the screen cycles through the colors & then goes black & powers off. Tried connecting to 2 different external monitors, could not get a picture on either.

I have the InsydeH20 bios. Any beep codes I can get ? I tried removing the memory 1 at a time, and same thing still happens.
I have an HP Pavillion dv6040 laptop, 3 years old. Today, after 3 years of nearly flawless operation, it will not start. It gives 1 long and 2 short beeps, and then nothing. The lights turn on, the fans run, but the screen remains off (black with the backlight off).
I believe it is a video problem (looked up the beeps online). The laptop has an Nvidia GeForce 7200 Graphics card.
Or does anyone know if it's possible to replace the video card in such a laptop?
I have an Inspiron N7010 laptop( about 3 years old) that came with 4gb RAM. I want to upgrade to 8gb. I have tried 3 different brands of memory
including Dell memory. I have run extensive memory tests( the Dell memory does not fail ). I have the exact memory part number that Dell support
has given me. In ALL cases, after installing the 8gb RAM, the laptop boot and then at some point will simply shutdown ( just like you powered down ).
The system info from the control panel shows that all 8gb is recognized. I have looked for and installed all the bios, chip set, and cpu upgrades from dell.
I have a Dell Inspiron N7010 running Windows 7 a friend did a clean install on my computer after my game a and dell factory restore along with a some other issues continued to give out error message. In doing so he completly wiped the driver software out. So now I can't connect to the internet and my aero transparnce isn't working either. I checked the device manager and under Other Devices were 3 drives a PCI controlle(i belivie) network adaptor and ethernet adopter. I'm not what driver software i should install in order to get it back working or at least the internet back up.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently wiped my computer using a DoD wipe program. My computer way really cluttered and it was just easier to wipe and start all over. I also wanted to install a new OS (windows 8). Upon turning it on after the wipe it requests a HDD Password. To my knowledge I never set one. Is there a way around this, specifically, not having to pay for one?
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe have a Dell Laptop N7010 on windows 7 (bought Oct 2010) that started freezing up and is now giving the "Windows failed to Start" message. We have tried the two options:
Launch Startup Repair (recommended) and Start Windows Normally. Have tried to select each but no luck. The Startup Repair takes awhile but nothing happens and we are right back to this screen. Then, in reading other logs with this problem the suggestion was to run a diagnostics check.So, chose F12 and ran the Preboot System Assessment Build 4124 and then the Boot Diagnostic Utility Partition
The following errors appear:
Error Code 0F00:65D
Msg: Disk - DST Self-test Read Error
& also get
Error Code 0F00:133C
Msg: Disk - No suitable disk media is present
(This one was related to SATA DVD + RW...)
I then tried to select F8 to set the system back to factory settings but do not get anywhere. It seems the only options are F2 or F12.
I needed to reinstall win 7 --after the install the system says no network hardware installed, I went to the dell site on another computer, downloaded ALL the suggested drivers for my Service tag, installed them and still not able to connect to internet, still says no network hardware detected
View 4 Replies View RelatedI bought a Dell Inspiron R17 n7010. I had some issue with the laptop overheating at times but overall it was working fine and I was happy with it. Three days ago however it seemed my hard drive got corrupted, as I got the error message "Cannot find operating system". I checked cable connection and to restore to factory settings through F8 but nothing worked and it seems the hard drive is broken.
Now I want to get a new hard drive through Dell, but my question is does the hard drive come with Windows, and with which version? When I bought the laptop through Dell two years ago it came with Windows 7 pre-installed, but no DVD/CD (I have the reg key on the back of the laptop). I have the Driver/Utilities DVD though.
I have dell inspiron n7010 and recently have problems with my power. When i press the power button, power lid only blink once and also after that the HDD lid blink once and thats it. No any other signs. I tried without battery only on charger, even changed my charger, but still the same. When i plug in the charger, power lid blink only once but nothing else.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an almost 2-year-old laptop with which I've been having problems for the last week or so. It all started when after hibernating the computer had a blank black screen not responding so I shut it off. After that it seems to boot up only once every 20 or so times. What happens after I press the power button: The laptop starts booting but doesn't get to the dell startup screen, after a while (after booting 3-4 times unsuccessfully) the fans even start spinning but the screen stays black and the hard drive light indicates that the drive isn't working.
LED Lights: The first light turns on, the second light turns on for a second or two (indicating hard drive starting to boot up) but then the light turns off and the computer is still running, but nothing happens. The third light is fine, there is no problem with the battery or the power supply.
I've tried reseating the hard drive, the RAM, removing one stick, then the other etc. and nothing works. The strangest thing is sometimes (very rarely) it does work, so far it booted up 4-5 times (if it gets to the DELL startup screen it's fine), but the rest 85 times it didn't .
I purchased my dell laptop sxps 1640 in Feb and till now..it is getting lot pf problems...
1st time - Around 2 weeks back - My Motherboard, DVD burner and Palmrest was replaced
2nd time - 1 week back - Palmrest was again replaced
3rd time - This time - They said that they will replace Palmrest, Motherboard, LCD, Power Adapter..
I have the above laptop. It quit working, when I turn it on it goes to a blank screen. The mouse arrow still works
1hn2sn1 I have no warranty or the reboot or take it back where it was. Not sure what to do.
She's been getting a message when she turns it on that the battery has lasted as long as it can last and need to be replaced but she NEVER unplugs the system (
It's a 17" desktop replacement so she can sit in the kitche. (lolstereotypes))
My dad told her that it now wont turn on because the battery final bit the dust but it wont turn on plugged in.
It wont turn on without the battery in it either when it's plugged in. My dad ordered her a new battery she doubts it will fix it
My screen went black. Did some research and found it it was most likely the inverter.
I replaced the inverter but it still flickers and then goes black while its booting up.
How can I tell if this is the back light or if this is the lcd itself? I've heard the backlight is hard to replace and I might have to take it somewhere to have it done which would cost $$ .....
I have a dell inspiron n5110 laptop that was recently slammed to the floor because of some crazy incident. Anyways, the screen shattered so i replaced the screen and attached the cables properly. The laptop powers on, but no display on the screen what so ever, its completely black.
I did the take out the battery and power cord, held power down for 60 sec. that was a no go
I don't know what could be the problem. I even hooked the laptop via hdmi to my tv and it works fine on the tv so i know the laptop is working. Also my warranty expired so that won't do. would really like to resolve this issue without forking over a couple hundred bucks.
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.
I got my hard drive replaced yeterday but now I have no internet connection, it is a dell inspiron n411z. I have the drivers and utilities cd and have tried installing all of the drivers on it, some have checkmarks and some dont so i am confused. What do I do if i installed them in the wrong order? My internet is still not working and there is a yellow box with an exclamation point by the following items: ethernet controller, network controller, pci simple communications controller, sm bus controller, universal serial bus controller, and unknown device. I had this problem last time the hard drive was replaced and somehow fixed it using this CD but I cant remember how.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've finally managed to find someone to replace my optical drive with an SSD (wouldn't want to void the warranty, do we?) and I've got quite bit of a problem here. After installing Windows 8 on the SSD, I get the error "winload.exe missing or corrupted" and error code 0xc000000e. The installer automatically put the boot data on the original HDD, while the OS is on the SSD - and it seems the UEFI can't find the OS like this.
The OS itself seems to be intact, since pressing F12 at booting and selecting Hard Drive starts the computer normally.
I've tried to move the boot sector to the SSD, but it seems I'm missing something... Would a BIOS update maybe work with this?
I have a Dell Inspiron 1545. When I turn the laptop on the fan and noises all started but the screen stays black and it completely shuts down. Does not restart itself but shuts down.
I have tried...
- Taking out HDD
- Removing battery
I also have another one of the same laptops and tried using the battery, adapter and hdd. All 3 worked for the other laptop but not this one.
