Dell :: M2010 Not Working
Feb 24, 2008
The problem started about a week ago the computer use to just freeze on me like i would be doing work on it and it would just freeze mouse would not move at all. i would have to hold the power button to turn it off.
Then it started freezing will its starting up windows. and finally it does not even turn on anymore. i talked to the comp tech in my school he told me. it might be the motherboard.
If it is the motherboard can i upgrade the cpu also to more powerful one i have the 1.8ghz ?
Things that i have eliminated :
Plugged it to another screen ( didnt work)
If it is the harddrive issue it would boot till it says harddrive error.
video card i will boot in safe mode. its not starting at all.
ram i unplugged the ram and pluged it back and still not booting.

When I press the power button, the led's around the power button will light up and stay on for a few seconds then shut off. The power led on the left side remains lit as does the BT light. If I leave it set for a while, the BT light begins to flash but thats all I get - no diag code or anything. I have already tried removing/disconnecting everything I can think of (HDD, DVD, wireless, modem, BT card, memory, video card even) just to see if I could make it give me a diag code (I know - thats getting desparate). The only one that made it give me a code instead of turning off was removing the memory completely - it gave me the "no memory" code obviously (mute light was solid, vol up and down were flashing steady). But if I put known good memory in it, it doesn't work and if I put its memory in a known good laptop I have no probs. So I went ahead and bought a new motherboard and that didn't fix it (oops). Then I found this site.

The M2010 is considered to be a flagship model.
I must say that for the price I did expect a better graphics card and a better processor upgrade path. With the coming of new models from Dell is this beast being left behind?
The new range of Intel chips could be an opportunity to raise the bar with this design.....is it worth it?

I had to reinstall win xp (media center) at my dell XPS m2010 - everything works fine but the keyboard and mouse stopped working after installing Wireless internal 350 device.
How could i get my laptop to work again? I mean keyboard and mouse. Everything starts up right just that the keyboard wont connect because of the bluettoth driver download.

I had a motherboard put in not long after I got it in 2007. Then the screen started going blue and saying it was dumping files. If anything is plugged into the USB ports it will not boot right and starts a constant beep. Lately it has been freezing up and the keyboard will not always work. Now when I try to turn it on nothing comes up on the screen while the bluetooth light comes on and the lights on the keyboard flash once. I have called tech numerous times and with it being out of warranty they want to charge $60 just for a phone diagnosis when it won't even do anything.

Several times I have had my M2010 screen freeze and then not come up at all on a reboot.The machine is under warranty and typically they send a tech out with a motherboard which does not fix the problem. Then the tech who pretty much knows its the video card has them send a new video card which does fix the problem and the machine works beautifully again.
However, several months later the card blows again and I have to do the whole process again which knocks out my computer usually when I need it most. Now I keep all my data externally with exceptions of it breaking down (not how I expected it to work).

My uncle bought a Aspire E1-572-6870 series notebook six months before for me from USA. After using 10 to 15 days I noticed the internal speaker is not working. But the headphone and/or microphone is working very fine. I went to a local laptop repairing shop for diagnosis. Unfortunately they were unable to find out the actual problem. They suggest me to change the speaker chip may result solve the problem. Before changing the chip I want to diagnose once more for accuracy about the problem. Any online check can be possible?

I have a timeline 4810T which has worked lovely since September, but now I have a weird problem with it: The keyboard won't work until the operating system is loaded. I can't access the bios (press the F2 key but nothing happens), neither select my OS on the Grub menu as the arrow keys doesn't work, all I can do is wait for the 10 seconds timer, then Ubuntu launches, then I can login without problems and all the keys work perfectly.
To give more details, maybe some keys do actually work before the os boot, because when I'm on the grub menu, some keys manage to stop the timer, but unfortunately I can't change the OS or accept the selection, then I have to reboot and wait for the timer to go back to 0 for itself and ubuntu loads.
I'm running the newest BIOS, updated some days ago but didn't had the problem since today.

I havent used the wifi for a long time, but now I'm trying to set it up and it isnt working. The little light next to the power button doesnt even come on. Not sure which drivers to download from the Dell web page either. I just got the basic wifi card when I ordered (not the fancy Intel model)
Any ideas on where to start?
The wifi is activated in the BIOS.

I just ordered an xps 16 a few weeks ago and I've been having a lot of troubles with the blu-ray drive.
The first blu ray drive worked with about 3 disks and the 3rd disk became stuck and I couldn't get it out,
so I got it replaced. The drive would seem to make noise as if it was trying to eject something over and over but it wouldn't actually eject
My new drive worked for 2 disks and again is not working in the same fashion as the first.

I found one of my laptop usb port is not working. The left usb port is not working and the right one is working. Don't know which port represent which version (2.0/3.0). I found universal serial bus driver is not installed. I can not find the driver so request you to provide me the link. If the driver is R309557, I already downloaded it. My bios version is A05.

I have an XPS17 and recently noticed that the "customized by Dell" portion of the Windows Mobility Center no longer works. I was told the bottom info is somehow related to the Quickstart application. You can see in the picture below what it is supposed to look like on the left, and what mine looks like on the right. None of the "customized by Dell" functions work anymore.

Having a problem with one of the USB ports on my XPS14z .. Port is the one adjacent to the HDMI port..
There is absolutely no signs of life from it at all, regardless of whether I connect USB 2 or 3 devices, usb drives etc. I've tried updating BIOS and CHIPSETS to absolutely no success.

and also checked device drivers are installed as per
[URL] ....
but again no success. It cannot be seen in device manager or when I ran a diagnostics suggesting the whole thing is dead.

I love my new laptop but it has a few issues that i need some help fixing:
1) Bluetooth not working (Yes there IS a module in my computer): I went into my bios and checked to make sure the option for bluetooth was checked. When my computer boots, the bluetooth LED comes on but as soon as it exits the BIOS and boots Windows 7 the LED turns off. I've looked for new drivers, and looked around other forums for a solution for this but have found no direct answer.
EDIT: Solved. Download the driver here
2) Sound (I have The High Def Audio with SRS premium sound. IDT drivers)- When playing sound on my computer with the A01 bios version, and having the IDT audio drivers, I noticed a lot of weird things going on with the sound. It like bottomed out and had a lot of vibration or something. I dont know how to describe it but it was VERY distorted. Since then i've upgraded my BIOS to A05 and uninstalled my IDT audio drivers and let windows install its own high definition audio drivers. It seem a lot better but there is still some distortion there were it seems like the computer is just vibrating too much or something.. Is there a fix for this? I read in another thread that he had to take out the keyboard and adjust some of the screws that were messing with the speakers.
*Also when I plug in my headphones, i notice some scratching and weird sounds when im not playing any music. Its like I can hear the hardrive. However, the problem is inconsistent. Is there a way to fix this?
*Also are there some recommended settings for the SRS premium sound (if i solve this and get the sound working right)?
EDIT: Visit this thread to upgrade your BIOS to A05. It fixed this problem to me, and besides, its the latest BIOS version. It's currently not on the dell site (typical dell)
Also Uninstall the IDT SRS Premium audio software an go to the Dell site and download just the IDT Driver. It fixed the clarity problem i was having too.
3) Wireless card- This must have been a A01 BIOS issue but since I upgraded to A05, it has been fixed. Basically when running uTorrent, the card would completely crash. It would make Firefox crash, and any other internet required app
Also it would be EXTREMELY helpful if someone would create a thread with all of the latest S-XPS 16 drivers (1640 and 1645). That way much time spent searching and troubleshooting can be avoided if we can just have a thread with all the drivers displayed in one location. Dell is horrendous when it comes to the latest drivers
Oh and here is my system build:
Dell Studio XPS 1645
Windows 7 Home Premium
Intel Core i7 720QM
6GB DDR3 at 1333MHz
RGBLED screen
AT 4670 - 1GB
High Definition Audio with SRS Preium Sound
Intell 5300 WLAN 3x3
DEll Wireless 370 bluetooth Module (2.1+EDR)
