Dell :: M1530 Freezes/slows While Downloading
Oct 26, 2008
Heres my problem:
For some reason while I download my computer becomes unusable. Everything completely slows down. I cant even type normally because i type faster than it shows up on the screen. Trying to listen to music doesnt work either cause it just skips. Same with browsing the internet. its like my laptop becomes stoned.
Ive contacted XPS support and they didnt help. I was with them for like 2 hours and they couldnt figure anything out. At the end they just told me to reinstall the OS.
Ive had this problem for quite a while now. Ive reinstalled Vista and it still has the problem. You can see my specs on my sig, but I'm currently on Vista Home Premium cause reinstalled the OS.

When I attach an LG 22" 1920x1080 monitor it eventually starts to slow down. Video won't load properly, the mouse starts jerking, etc. This is the secing F-11 I've had this issue with. I don't see memeory leakage but I have 8 gigs of ram, I loaded drivers carefully, and checked each, but the heck of it is that the laptop works perfectly when I remove the monitor. Could it be the monitor itself? It works with my SR & AW. Both are Vista machines though.

I've bought this laptop brand new from the shop, it came with freedos and i installed windows 7 64bit and service pack two as well then i installed VLC Player, SM Player, & Daum Pot Player just to use on my day to day video watching. Well everything works perfectly fine except that when i play the video for a while, it started to slow down, it works nicely otherwise. It starts somewhere around 30 minute and beyond. I tried with all players, and this happens with BlueRay Rips i have which is HD video. Whats happening people? is this computer not powerful enough to play some HD Movie?. If it so then i am really in big trouble because the main reason for me to buy this was to watch movies and browse web. I watch movies plugged to AC all the time and Balance power profile. I also watch them in standard Settings of the player. The machine has 2GB Ram and Celeron N2810 Processor. Is this a problem with windows 7?

Whenever my Acer Aspire E15 laptop is plugged in, it slows down considerably. As soon as you take the plug out it works perfectly fine. I have tried everything but still no result.

My question:
What i have;
I have, as the title sais, a Vaio VPCZ11Z9E with the hybrid graphic system. The drivers i use are the latest ones published by Sony.
The problem;
When i have my computer on stamina mode ie. not using the nvidia geforce card and i right click my desktop to reach the meny for personalize, create new folders etc the meny shows up instantly, no delay at all.
When i have the switch to speed, using my nvidia geforce card(which always use while at work and plugged in) the right click on desktop has delay/lag to show the meny, the windows 7 thinking animation shows up, for up to 3 seconds before it actually pops up.
My conclusion is of course, that it has to do withe nevidia card/drivers.
Are there any solution to this? Does anyone else have the problem? Should i do a total reset with the recovery tool?

I just recently upgraded to Vista Home Premium 64-bit on my Studio 1737 laptop. Can anyone tell me the best method to determine what drivers from
Dell I have and which ones I need? I went to 'Drivers and Downloads' on Dell.com, but I cannot tell which ones are already installed other then the obvious(quickset, the wifi card driver, etc.) ......

has anyone of you new owners of XPSS16 login to the link below, register and download the pre-installed software for your laptop? well,
i've tried and got registered but right after i pressed Register System and allow Syspro.exe to run, nothing happens.
this is frustrating. the SW like PowerDVD for bluray, Roxio and face recognition are not part of the CDs included and we new owners supposed to login, register and download the SW ourselves .....

I purchased a Flex 2 a couple weeks ago. Installed Office 365 software and Creative Cloud by Adobe. All was working well on both the networks I connect to.
Now today, performance across the entire network has gone to the dogs. At first I suspected the provider or router so went through all the standard service routines (unplug this, reboot that) over and over. Same deal, deadly slow performance for several PCs and Macs on the network.
Then I hit on the idea of shutting down my Lenovo. Suddenly the network download speed went back from 2MB/sec and ping of 2000 MS to more normal speeds.
I've rebooted the Lenovo a couple times, switched from 2.4 Ghz band to 5 with the same result.
At one point when I plugged the Lenovo directly into the modem (part of the diagnostics) the direct speed seemed faster.
Since the router is working perfectly with every other machine, and I haven't changed a thing on that, and since the symptoms go always across the network when the Lenovo is shut off, I can only assume that there is something going on with the Lenovo Flex 2 and the way it is communicating with the rest of the network.
I should also add that I tried hooking up an ethernet cable to ensure that it wasn't just a wireless thing. Still had slow performance.

My son's desktop (HP Pavilion 500-164) keeps disconnecting from our wireless interner (Netgear 03 router) when downloading. We have reset the modem, changed the channel, installed the network driver from HP website, and went through all the troubleshooting tips. He is receiving an error message when booting up (there was a problem starting C:WindowsSystems32LogiLDA.dll the specified module could not be found). Could this be related to the problem we are having with his internet connection?

I've been working on this issue on my own for about a week now. I'm not entirely sure how to start explaining, so I'll just do a rundown of the noticable issues.
Hovering over the speaker icon gives me the text, "No speakers or headphones are plugged in." I use the internal speakers, and I always have my headphones plugged in. Audio playback troubleshooting doesnt give me anything (though at one point during my progress, it said that my audio device was disabled.)
Device management has been confusing at best. I can't seem to get the Realtek W8.1 drivers to properly download, even after finding the Acer-support driver.

i have a Sony VGN-AW31M/H and the Vaio Update site says there are 2 updates available, a WinBD one and a bios update. When trying to download either of these, a small download window appears with 0/xxxxxxxx bytes but no progress happens. Eventually it times out with the error above.
I have tried resetting IE cache, deleting the C:update folder, adding the vaio update exe to the windows firewall, im not sure what else i can try.

I have a Dell docking station for my M4400 and sometimes when I place my laptop on it it will freeze, totally, nothing will work except pressing the power button for 5 secs and reboot. It happens once a week or so. Not very often and I cant find any rule to when it happens.
I have a mouse and a LAN cable attached to the dock currently.This is the docking station I have: [url]

I bought a refurb E4300 about a month ago. I really like the design and really want to keep this laptop, but I've come across some random issues, I've never dealt with before and it's getting to annoy me.
The most recent one is when the computer sits for about 10 min (the setting is set to 10 min) and goes to standby.
The blue microsoft screen comes up and the words "Preparing to stand by" shows up and it freezes.
I can still move the mouse (I notice the pointer moving), the keyboard still works (toggle lighted keyboard), but the screen stays as is. The only way I've solved this is to do a hard reboot. Painful.
My other issue was from the other day. I didn't want to disturb anyone so I plugged in my headphones.
After that, I couldn't control the volume. None of the volume controls worked at all. In face, only one source of audio was coming up.

don't know if others had this same problem already. I've disabled sleep and hibernate and such and only set the display to turn off after 10 min. Pretty much every time the laptop is frozen when i start using it again.
Sometimes it takes a while and it's usable again but mostly it just stays that way and i have to do a hard reboot

I have a strange issue I was hoping one of you could help me solve. I have a dell latitude d620.
I bought this laptop used and always had some issues with it. At first the machine used to have some random power failure, where i would plug it in and the screen would go black. So I went ahead and replaced the motherboard.
Now after many months I took the machine to work and when i got home it will randomly freeze. I went ahead and tried a different harddrive, with the same result. So I tried to reformat the drives and it occurs on both as well

Ok here is what I did yesterday. Downloaded 4 updates for the XPS 1530:
- Blutooth software
- A12 BIOS update
- NVIDIA 185.85 driver
- NVIDIA PhysX 9.09.0408
I first installed the blutooth, everything was running fine. Then went ahead with installing the gpu driver and then physx driver. Finally I go ahead with the A12 bios update (was running on A09 before this).
I restart the computer, and everything loads up just fine. I noticed the fan kicking in though but no biggie..
I can open up firefox window no problem. It's only when I access my documents (D) or My Computer or C: the computer freezes (not responding msg). The fan kicks in at this moment and waiting 10 more minutes doesn't solve anything so I have to force shut down the laptop. Is it the bios update which is doing this or Nvidia drivers?

I am experiencing some weird freezing issues on my machine, a m6400 covet, vista64 ultimate, 8GB ram, 3700 GPU.
It seems to be happening while browsing mostly, I don't notice it while gaming on WOW. What happens is Firefox or IE freezes while browsing for 2-3 seconds, and the task is locked, it's usually in transition to another page, while some resources are loading.

Because of various problems I was having with my M4400, I decided to reformat and reinstall Windows (Vista Ultimate SP1).
Immediately after reinstalling, it started to freeze for up to 1 second every 10 to 20 seconds, which is really annoying. However, it doesn't miss any keystrokes or mouse movements, as it catches up after the freeze. I'm wondering whether it's got something to do with some unrecognised devices that it has yet to find the drivers for:
PCI Serial Port
PCI Simple Communications Controller
SM Bus Controller

It freezes up every few seconds and resumes after another few seconds. This happens when I am gamming. I can move my cursor when it freezed, the audio also gets stuck.
I've tried all the Dell PC Diagnostics, and didnt find anything wrong. I fresh reinstalled my system, scaned virus and malwares, update my drivers, still problem remains. I think it's my video card might have phyiscal damage cause I move the huge ass laptop a lot, but I am not sure.
I had installed an new ssd 2 weeks ago in module 1, but I had no problem until yesterday.
i7 2670QM 2.2GHz
AMD Radeon HD 6870
4GB DDR3 RAM

Wife has a Dell Inspirion E1505 that keep freezing on the Vista boot screen. You know the one with the 3 yellow bars that just run across the screen right before you see you login name.
Well it just freezes and never gets past that screen. I walked her through reinstalling Vista over the phone and it boots from the cd and then loads all the drivers off of it and then goes to the Vista boot screen again and freezes..

My m4400 seems to like to lock up while switching users. It doesn't happen all the time, but when it does the "Please Wait..." spins away on the screen and it will stay that way forever.
The only way to fix it is to force a reboot by holding down the power button. I'm using Vista Business 64.

My Dell Studio 15 is only about 3 months old and I have been having this problem for the last month now.
Every couple of days or so my laptop lockups - the cursor sticks and there's nothing I can do other than power it off and boot it back up and then its fine for the next couple of days.
This is random... sometimes it happens when doing something intensive, sometimes it happens when its just sitting idle on the desktop after it has only been switched on for about 5 mins

I purchased my laptop a little over 2 weeks ago. After the first week I noticed that when I turn it on the dell logo will come on and then immediately go to a black screen. At that point I have to power off the back on and it boots normally. I flashed the BIOS to the A11 update but the didn't fix the issue.

My laptop has frozen while in hibernate mode on two occassions in the past two months. Though not a frequent occurance it is heart stopping when you have committed work to a customer and everything you need is on the laptop and not accessible.
The first time the machine was off. Opened the lid and pressed the power button and nothing - did not even light up the button. After no responses to any attempt to start the computer I removed the battery. Upon reinserting the battery the machine started working and everything was fine.
The second time the machine was off but left with the lid open. The power button was lit. No matter what I did there was no response - frozen again. Once again I removed the battery and upon reinserting the system again resumed working normally.
The only common thing is the laptop went into hibernate mode and would not respond to commands to wake up.
