I've been looking at the studio 1558 deal on the dell.ca website. The specifications say that the ram is 1333mhz, but on the customization page and review screen it says the ram is 1066mhz.
I'm looking at getting it with the i7 , so the ram speed matters. Which one is correct, the main site or the customization screen?
is the sony FW35V(customizable) on the sony style uk site a 1920x1080 a dual lamp LCD?
it says 16.4" H1080 WXGA++ (1920 x 1080) Widescreen X-black LCD screen with built-in "Motion Eye" Digital Camera, but is it a 1920x1080 dual lamp, multiple lamp(how many?) orr single lamp? make sure its the fw35v not the fw35x. the fw35v is the one that costs £60 to upgrade the screen. the fw35x says HD1080 (1920x1080) X-black LCD with multiple lamp, which im guessing is a dual lamp LCD right? also is the Dual lamp worth it for £60?
what does it do? give brighter?, sharper?, more deep and rich colours? or something else?
I am using Lenovo G5070 and I installed the Graphic Drivers for Win7 but the main screen is very dim and its using the Intel VGA instead of the AMD Radeon display. I downloaded the latest drivers from the support site. How can I switch the main screen to AMD Radeon VGA
View 2 Replies View RelatedRecently bought a dell 5530 card, installed GPS enabled drivers and wireless manager - everything works smooth now. The were some issues with wireless manager I didn't like and had to fix. So I thought that it might be usefull for someone else.
What I've solved for now:
1. WL didn't allowed me to lock UMTS mode (sim card specific issue). When I tried to select "HSPA/UMTS only" it just showed me empty message box.
2. WL didn't start in mode.
3. There were no possibility to quickly switch from 2G to 3G and back, and to switch on GPS.
Didn't had much time to spend on it, so chose most simple (and dirty) way:
1 and 2 was resolved with code modification (might be illegal ): removed restrictions on band switch and made it always start minimized.
3 - with custom buttons, icons and some scripts .....
Is it just me or is the GeForce 9600M GT no longer offered in its customization online...
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow much would the difference in the Display be if I choose:
i) 16.4" VAIO Display (1600x900) with NVIDIA® GeForce® 310M GPU (512MB VRAM)
While customizing the F instead of:
ii) 16.4" VAIO Premium Display (1920x1080) with NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 330M GPU (1GB VRAM)
The second option is Full HD and seems to have a more powerful graphics card but I heard with the first one I would have more battery life?
What are the positives and negatives of each?
I've got a Aspire 5315 which I configured for my brother in law by removing Vista and replacing with XP (SP2).
Everything is peachy, it is a great computer for the price (got it at W*M) except for some reason I can't get customization features on the synaptics touchpad.
I've got the latest drivers installed for XP (x32) - which is 10.8.10 I think... but the menu isn't there to customize things like, disabling tapping on the touchpad. I noticed on the synaptics download page it says:
Note: Installing a generic driver can result in the loss of customized Synaptics pointing device functionality.
is there a way to get a non-generic driver? any help would be appreciated.
oh and someone mentioned flashing the BIOS, is that safe? would I need to do that before this problem can be fixed? is the touchpad issue related to the BIOS? how do I know if it is already up to date?
I have another question regarding the E440 specifically. The technical spec sheet says optional fingerprint reader, but I don't get that option on any of the customizations for this laptop. Is it really no longer an option?

Does the lid screw in to the main lcd or just snap on ?
I just did a clean install of win7. When asked on which partition I wanted it I also deleted the recovery partion thinking it would just be reallocated to the one I was installing win7.
Now win7 is all installed but I have a unallocated 15 gb and I have no idea how to get this space back.
I have this Dell e1705 Core 2 Dou, 2 GB Ram and an ATI video card. I've been buying Nvidia's GO 7900 GS off ebay. some of them arrive here dead. the rest arrive, they work for 1 hour and then become like the rest, lines on the screen, color blinking, in windows, the Bios, and even in safe mode, I put my ATI back and everything works fine, only two of the 6 I got worked for like 1 hour, 1 just stopped working completely, and the other one that I bought a week ago worked for 1 hour then red flickers and pixels started appearing on the screen then it got messed up completely like the pictures show.
Is it possibble that its the mainboard, or any short, and why just Nvidias and not the ATI. I think I just have bad luck with the cards I bought.
I got an Aspire One a few months ago and it worked fine. I hardly ever use it.
I brought it with my on vacation and when I went to boot it up, it wouldn't turn on. Figured the battery was dead so I put the power cord in and turned it on.
After an hour or so, I unplugged the power cable and it instantly shut off. Thought it was weird, but whatever.
I just now noticed though that the battery light blinks orange. XP says the battery is 100%, but if you unplug the AC power, it instantly shuts off and it can't be turned on without the AC.
i have deleted my main drive (c), i want to recover back to the factory setting by recovery partition, i dont have the recovery center, so i cant use the f10 to recover it, how can i recover the drive by using the hidden recovery partition.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI just had my Yoga 13 for about two months and really liked it. Upped RAM to 8GB and added the second SSD. Sweet.
Â
But now I managed to nearly brick my nice little Yoga by spilling juice all over it, and now I am in recovery process.
Â
I checked the original mSATA SSD on another machine, and it looks like it still works fine, all partitions are still there.
Â
In the very beginning after first "drying" the Yoga I got it to boot a couple of times. But now all I get is "Default Boot Device Missing".
Next thing I'll try is putting the SSD in an external USB enclosure and try and boot from there.
I delayed my purchase for 1 day and RGBLED is gone on the UK site for the XPS 16. same as the US as well!
Is this a shortage problem ?
They pulled Blu-Ray as well from the uK site a while ago.
Regarding WLED screens are they covered in hard plastic as well?
Dell currently has a coupon code that knocks off the price down by 170$, but not on the canadian site.
Is it possible to purchase the dell from the US site and ship it to canada without having to pay duty fees? Or should I just wait for the deal to show up on the Canadian site.
Well my XPS M1330 finally succumbed to the nvidia gpu flaw. I called Dell on Sunday afternoon (it's now Weds AM) and within 20 minutes with tech support had arranged for on site repair.
Well Monday came and went, no call from the local tech to schedule my repair. Contacted Dell chat support yesterday (Tues) morning and within 10 minutes after checking on my status the rep said I should receive a call by end of business day. The rep then connected me to a supervisor for a quick survey...supervisor asked me some small talk questions and then gave me a # to call direct regarding my in home repair (800-654-1853). So now this morning, no call so I gave the # a jingle...it is some company named "Bangtech"? Gave them my Dell Dispatch # and the lady there told me they haven't received the replacement part yet (new mobo). I explained today is now the 3rd day, she put me on hold, then came back and said they anticipate delivery today and I would receive a call by 5pm today to schedule.
My question is is this normal timing? My Dell dispatch says "NBD". I figured it would be Tues for the repair since I called Sunday afternoon and nothing would probably get shipped/updated until Monday. At this point it's going to be Thursday at the earliest.

My problem goes as following:One day I realised I cannot use my built in camera anymore. Tried reinstalling original preinstalled Cyberlink Youcam software, but as you can assume if that worked - I wouldn't be here. Then I tried troubleshooting according to HP guide. The problem is there is no category called "Imaging devices" at all.
I can place two bets on what could actually happen:
a) somehow I managed to delete basic HP webcam 101 driver.
The exact name of the device is:Â USBVID_05C8&PID_021E&MI_00
b) internal camera itself broke down (it's not unplugged cord issue - made sure myself)
Â
I believe I could try installing basic separate driver for the camera, the problem is I cannot find one/cannot find reliable source. Could you send me/upload it for me?

Further, the only windows app I'm really going to miss is Publisher, I'm thinking on being daring and installing Vista on the Mac with Bootcamp and then run Publisher in Windows. If that worked well I could get rid of the T500... (I have a desktop I could use for heavier app's, movie/music downloading) ...
Seems like a lot of work for such a small little machine, lol, can it handle it? Has anyone there done this before with success?

According to this driver site for 1645, most of the drivers are all up-to-date. Could I apply updates for my XPS 1640 here ?
i have a tz2000. i know people here have installed windows 7 on their TZs, but here's what sony's site officially says about the TZ and win 7:
"The hardware configuration of this model does not meet the minimum system requirements needed to run and provide the full experience of the Windows® 7 operating system.
Windows® 7 installation is not recommended and Sony will not be providing Windows® 7 drivers for this model."
so, my question, specifically for TZ owners, is, what is your experience? i had another thread trying to figure out whether to upgrade to 32 or 64 bit. but now, i'm not even sure if I should upgrade. (see my sig for my system specs)
edit: on sony's site, i selected my model...haven't used the autodetect. microsoft's win7 upgrade advisor tells me i can upgrade to 32-bit.

Just from looking at precision laptops.
Upgrade to 64bit os was 50 euro, now 55 euro.
Component example, yesterday it cost 440 euro to update the graphics card on a m6400 from a FX2700M to a FX3700M, today it costs 490 for the same upgrade
