Dell Latitude E6510 :: How To Install Windows 7 64 Bit
Nov 26, 2014
on my E6510 I did install 8gb ram but windows 7 32 bit recognizes only 4GB. I'm thinking of switching to the 64-bit version of Windows 7 Professional, but I have doubts about the license key and the drivers. First, when changing from 32-bit to 64-bit, the current license is valid? If it is not, can I get a valid license from my actual? Finally, the drivers, are all supported? There is an image of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (eg iso) downloadable from the Dell site with all the drivers and applications for my laptop?
When I installed Windows 8.1 (from the MSDN developer site) on My Latitude E6510 it has an unknown device called Broadcom USH. A Windows 7 driver would probably work, but I don't know what that device does, so I don't know which driver to try and install. I think it's for the BCM5880 chip. What does that do?
New Latitude E6510 running Win7 Pro 64 bit. Periodically the laptop will boot with a red X through the speaker icon in the tray. Placing the mouse cursor over the speaker icon displays a message something like "No audio device is installed. A cold boot does not correct the problem. Shutting down, disconnecting the power supply, removing the battery then restarting has corrected the problem so far.
I received a Studio 1558 with spec in my signature last Tuesday. Its screen just went crazy (changing colors, vertical screen, all sorts of things) on Friday and Dell offered me a new system replacement. I bought the system with Dell Preferred Account and also purchased extended warranty on Wednesday (right after I received the laptop) using my debit card.
I said go ahead and the rep in Philippines told me that she would process the new system dispatch on Monday, which is tomorrow. Now I'm thinking I would not want Studio 15 for durability issue, especially because of the screen failure in 3 days of opening the box. I loved virtually everything of the laptop initially but I feel like I should get a Latitude.
Question 1 So, I'll talk to Customer Services first thing tomorrow in the morning and return my Studio. Since I used DPA, I haven't paid anything for the system itself - this probably won't be a problem for refund. But how about warranty? Am I going to get that refunded to my debit card account as soon as I return the laptop?
I configured Latitude E6510 as follows: Core i5 520, 4GB @ 1333, 250GB @ 7200rpm, FHD 1920x1080, NVS 3100M, backlit keyboard, advanced-N 6200, no bluetooth, no webcam, no DVD burner, 3yr basic mail-in service warranty. I also decided to just get Windows Vista Basic 32 bit. They are charging US$109 more for Win7 Pro x64, but I'll be able to download it for free using my school's MSDN Academic Alliance program .....
I have a Dell Latitude E6510 that I bought new in 2010. Its only 4 years old, but the HDD I believe is failing as I got this message when I did a Pre-Boot Assessment:
Error Code: 0146 Message Error Code: 2000-0146
My machine did not come with Windows 7 Disks. Is there a way I can backup the Windows OS so that I can get Disks to install on the new HDD I purchase? Or do I have to buy another Windows 7 license?
I have the Windows 7 Repair Disk. Would this get me going to install Windows 7 on a new HDD? I have my original Windows 7 OS License and Dell Backup and Recovery is installed on my machine. I used The Dell Recovery Tool to make a backup media on an external HDD and this is the file structure that was copied:
Boot Dell Sources bootmgr
Are any of these files the Windows 7 OS or how do I get copies?
I was given a nice E6510 that doesn't boot. I've taken it apart and tested the memory, all the connections, reseated the processor (yes I used arctic silver) and it never gets past the 'one time boot menu', the diagnostic boot freezes but I CAN get to the very complex BIOS version A16.
So, I bought a new MOBO thinking that would solve the boot issue but it hasn't-it's doing exactly the same thing. may indicate the problem-Dell calls this an "OPTION ROM", may be 'unseated' or the system board is bad.
What is "Option ROM" and how can it be reseated? Are there any other things I can do in BIOS to change this? I also replaced the SATA CDROM and the hard drive, and I know the USB port works okay but nothing will boot from them.
I keep running into a problem with windows not loading after installing new RAM. I am currently using the original 4GB (2 x 2GB) it came with and I am wanting to go with 8GB (2 x 4GB). I am using the recommended Crucial RAM and I have checked the BIOS which recognizes the new memory. The BIOS is up to date running A16 version. I have not been able to find any settings that would be inhibiting it from running. I have noticed that the currently installed RAM runs a 1067mhz even though it is rated at 1333mhz. As far as I can tell there is no memory remapping feature for the BIOS which does not make sense.
Here is a snap shot of what I have:
Operating System System Model
Windows 7 Ultimate (x64) Service Pack 1 (build 7601)Install Language: English (United States)System Locale: English (United States)Installed: 9/29/2014 3:01:57 PMBoot Mode: BIOS (Secure Boot not supported) Â [Code] .....
I've had my E6510 for about 2 months and I am having trouble with a spontaneous shutdown and reboot. There are no errors in the shutdown and the system reboots automatically within a few seconds of shutdown. I'm also experiencing trouble with system freezes. This latter problem may be fixed by an updated bios (as mentioned in another thread), but the shutdown and reboot is about to drive me crazy.
There is no rhyme or reason for it. I had it shutdown once when I pulled out a flashdrive one time, but the other times this was not an issue. Today I was typing an email message when it simply shutdown and rebooted.
It does not seem to be getting hot, but I need to check the LCD as mentioned in another thread.
I should mention this is 64-bit with 8MB RAM, running Windows 7.
I'm using laptop Latitude E 6510 with video card nVidida NVS 3100m. I have external monitor - HP LP2465, which I use when I'm working home.
Working of office jobs, I saw, that laptop become warm. I cheked the temperatures (Everest Ultimate, vers.4.50) and I saw, that video card is relatively worm - after several minutes temperatures of video card is about 130 F and soon reach up to 140-150 F. Then temperature stay in this limits.
I would like to know if such temperatures are normal. I bought cooling laptop pad, but it doesn't make real difference.
I have been trying to get to the system setup menu by pressing the F2 key at startup and the boot menu by pressing the F12 key at startup. Neither key works. The notebook proceeds into Windows startup (I am running Win 7 Pro 32-bit). How can I get to the system setup menu and the boot menu on this notebook?
What causes this message when I boot my Latitude E6510 laptop?

Latitude E6500 and Precision M4400 were basically the same machine, the differences being the M4400's (obviously) different aesthetic on the lid, the more powerful GPU options, and a handful of other tweaks that I don't really remember the specifics of.
From what I can tell, the situation looks to be about the same this time around with the 15.6" Latitude E6510 vs. the 15.6" Precision M4500.
The Precision offers beefier GPU options and a 1600x900 sRGB LED display option, but I want the lower-power WLED 1080p display anyway so that's no loss
We have a user that has had a Latitude E6510 for 16 months. During this time, she has had A LOT of blue screens of death. We have tried numerous attempts to troubleshoot and fix. The Event Viewer doesn't show anything abnormal prior to the crashes.
Once I can get my hands on the laptop for a decent amount of time, I plan on running the Dell online diagnostic tool but I think we've tried that before. I am posting this in an attempt to see if any others out there have had the same problem with their E6510 crashing and have come up with a fix on your own.
I TRIED to do searches to find potential answers but the I kept getting "Error retrieving documents." no matter what I used as a search value from E6510 to Latitude to Blue Screen.
I have a Latitude e6510 display port. The graphics card that came with the laptop is Nvidia NVS 3100M.
My display port does not output. External screen just says <No video signal>
The Nvidia control panel can also not see any other monitors.
I have tried this with multiple displays. I have updated to the latest drivers for everything including Nvidia.I ran the scan system for driver updates utility from Dell.
How do I get the display port to start outputting. Is there some special driver that is needed?
I have a Dell Latitude E6510. I recently bought an off-brand replacement battery to replace my two year old battery that came with the laptop. The new one is a 12 cell battery whereas the old one is a 6 cell battery. I put the battery in just fine and it booted up perfectly. Its weird because on the bottom right of the monitor, it says there is no battery detected and yet I am able to run my laptop without having the power cord plugged in. I have uninstalled the battery drivers and that did not fix it. I am currently letting my battery die in hopes that will fix it.
This is the link to the battery I bought.

Also, upon plugging the new battery in, no matter what I do, whether it be charge it with the power cord or let it run off the battery, the battery icon on the hardware of my computer blinks yellow/orange 4 times and then blue once and keeps repeating that.
the enter key on my windows 7 latitude E6510 is broken and i am unable to pass the resume loader screen by clicking enter. I tried cleaning underneath my keyboard with no luck.
Installed replacement hard drive in Latitude E6510. Â Ordered same drive as originally installed from Dell. When I try to install OS on new drive I get the "No Boot Device Found" error. Â When I enter set up the HDD and DVD drive are shown as installed. Â I changed the boot sequence to have the DVD run as first boot device.
I have a Latitude E6510 that will not start. When pressing the power button, the power light goes on for about 5 seconds and then turns off. I also notice the battery light flashes a few times when re-connecting the AC adapter.
Removed the battery, held in the power button 30 seconds, but still not working.
We have had this laptop about 6 months. About a month ago, it exhibited this problem. After talking to Dell Support, they recommended a system board replacement. The laptop was sent in and the board was replaced. When I got it back and tried to start it for the first time, it did the same thing. I then pressed the Latitude "ON" button, and the laptop started.
Now it is doing the same thing, and I find it hard to believe that another system board is bad. I am suspicious about this "ON" feature, that maybe the laptop is "stuck" or something trying to get into the "ON" mode. Or maybe it is just trying to get into "ON" mode.Â
I am not sure what the "ON" feature does, but I have noticed a few other posts on the internet of users having the exact same problem. Again--I find it hard to believe a second system board could be bad.
I own a Dell Latitude E5530, which I bought used off eBay, and it was wiped to protect previous owner information, however, the owner did not reinstall Windows. I am getting the "C Prompt" as pictured below, and I would like to know how to reinstall Windows.
How to reinstall Windows with this popping up after BIOS?
I can't install my integrated webcam. After downloading the driver and opening the file installation starts and then suddenly it just ends with the message there was an error during installing.
So the thing I've done are: installing the drivers, which failed.
I've also looked in the device managemer app but could find anything of a camera.
Our non-profit recently acquired a Latitude X300 laptop without any support manuals, software, etc. the machine does not have an operating system installed on the hard drive.
It does not have a optical drive and I cannot see how I can install Windows on the machine.
To test the machine, I attempted to boot and install Linux via a USB thumb drive but the system refuses to boot several versions of that operating system.
the machine correctly is aware of the USB drive and it attempts to boot from it but I received a message that either the food record information is missing or the laptop cannot locate the operating system. (I verified that the USB drive is working and it will boot from my laptop .....
I have a new hard disk for a Dell D630. I was able to install Ubuntu but I cannot get Windows to install. When I try, it does the preliminary loading but when it starts to install I get the blue screen of death. A Google search on this came up with make sure the BIOS has the disk set for IDE. In my BIOS settings however, there is no setting for this, only an SATA choice of ATA and ANCI, both of which I've tried.
I replaced hard drive with SSD and installed windows 7 ultimate (X64) on my HP Pavilion G4 notebook. However, I am not able to install switchable graphics on my laptop now.  I have tried this 1. Installed HPSA and ran update and tuneup. It asked me to update "AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver" but it failed with multiple retries and after some time now it doesnt ask to do this update at all. Now everything is green in HPSA but I am still not able to switch the graphics 2. Tried to download from HP drivers page but it says "AMD Catalyst Mobility cannot be downloaded due to incompatible harware/software on your computer" 3. Tried uninstalling the driver but windows updates the drivers automatically. 4. I also updated BIOS as suggested at [URL] ..... but still no luck......  Product Name: HP Pavilion g4 Notebook PC Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Service Pack 1 Product number : LQ375PA#AB
I can not install WiFi driver for Dell Lattitude E5530, Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.InstallShield Wizard aborted with this message:"This platform is not compatible with Intel(R) WiDi or the application is in use."I downloaded all drivers after giving the Service Tag of my laptop and installed then in the correct order. Only WiFi driver failed to install.
I am in the market for a new computer and have been doing a lot of research into my options. First off i found this website to be the best source of information so i figured it was about time to register. I'm just finishing up my Business Degree and then will be doing another two years of education in Crop Science i plan on continuing to work for the Family Business(Agriculture Retail). I currently have a Dell Inspiron 640m Due Core 2GB Ram Windows XP Pro with 9 cell. This has been a great laptop for me and lasted over years now of pretty continual use. It is starting to fall apart though and i'm in the market for a new laptop this spring. Our company has generally ordered from Dell and for the most part results have been pretty good however they sure haven't been perfect.
I take my laptop everywhere i go so i'm hoping my next laptop be a little slimmer then my current model and ideally a little lighter. I'm also wanting my next computer to be better at multitasking and these new intel chips look like they will fit the bill nicely. I always have outlook open and often many chrome or firefox tabs as well as itunes, word, excell ect. I don't do much for PC gaming i have a PS3 for that, however it would be nice to be able to at least have the ability to play some more basic PC games if needed (I'm thinking of going with the discrete video card). I dont watch a lot of movies on my computer but i am considering getting a blueray drive depending on if i can negotiate the $500 price down a bit. I want to have a computer with good battery life i've noticed some of the average 15/16inch futureshop/best buy models only last a couple hours on battery and thats not acceptable to me. At home i currently hook up to a nice hd 23inch dell monitor. I really like the latitudes ability to dock and would likely get one dock for home and one for work.
I would say my leading model of choice would be the e6410 right now. I'm used to the 14 inch screen and it would have the same resolution as what i have now. However the full hd resolution on the e6510 does sound really nice and i'm hoping to try to find a local kiosk store to see one in person. I just don't know if the extra real estate is worth the extra weight size and i assume less battery life. How much of a battery life difference between the 15 and 14 inch models? Even from the older 5100 vs 4100 series anyone compared? The Dell reps claim they are similar but i don't believe it. I'v been watching the Owners Lounge on both models and still waiting for some true weights to be posts as i don't believe Dell's Claimed weights. I also was looking at the Lunova T series and the new MacBook Pro 15inch. The Macs are very nice and i enjoy working with my Parents MacBook Pro 13inch every once and while. The visual performance of their iworks programs are Superior in my opinion however in order to be integrated well into work i need to be able to use Outlook and essentially i feel i would need to use Bootcamp or parallels to run Windows. If i end up using mainly windows i guess it doesn't make much sense to buy a mac. I'm also hoping office 2010 will be an upgrade on 2007.
As far as the new processors at first i figured that it would be nice to get the true quad core i7 processors in the e6510 however after doing some research on the forms i don't think i have any need for a quad core and i believe that i would get more value out of the lower energy consumption of the dual core series. So essentially i think its just a debate between the i5 540 and in the i7 640. I found a link somewhere on here with a test comparing the two and essentially it recommended sticking with the i5 540 because it has very close performance with constantly lower energy consumption. However i'v also read some of the new macbook pro 15 reviews and some of the reviews saw some significant improvements of the i7 vs i5 options. Whats your thoughts anyone have real life experience comparing the two, or more links for me to look at?
I'm heavily considering get an SSD drive on my next laptop i know they are a little pricey but from everything i'v read they are one of the most noticeable speed improvements you can make. I also like the extra reliability of no moving parts. This seems to be a quickly changing field with new options such as "Trim" support. I know this is only available on Windows 7 and i am planning on going with Windows 7 Pro unless someone thinks that Ultimate is worth the extra money. I don't really see any extra features of importance in the ultimate version though. But back to the SSD what is the exact model that Dell uses i'v read that it is a Samsung model but can't seem to find much for reviews on any Dell/Samsung SSD's. If i'm going to spend the money on an SSD it sounds like going with an aftermarket SSD such as the Intel SSD may be the way to go. The 160 Intel looks like a nice option it seems like the Intel has been getting strong reviews from everything that i have read. My question is will this void warranty with dell? I plan on getting the 3 year warranty with pro support and accidental coverage. Also has anyone compared the Dell SSD to an aftermarket one? How hard is it to switch the hard drive with an after market one? Could someone explain the drive size to me i have seen 1.8 and 2.5 as the different sizes. Most SSD's for laptops seem to be 2.5 will this work with the E6410/6510?
On another note anyone from Canada buy a dell from the States. I'm frustrating with the huge price differences right now between the US and Canada pricing. I priced out a fairly loaded up model in each country and their is about a $1000 difference with the Canadian dollar being so strong this is frustrating. If i do go ahead with the Dell i will be bringing this up with our local busn. rep.
I am trying to decide between the M4500 and the E6510.
I am a photographer and will be using this computer for photoshop work in the field and hooked up to a 26in monitor at home.
I want something that will last a few years, so I am considering the M4500 as future proofing, because you can get a faster video card and CPU with it.
I've a brand new Dell lattitude 5530 with a Dell wireless 380 Bluetooth Card. I've downloded the driver module recommended by the Dell driver support webpage when I supplied my Sevice Tag.
