I am about to make a purchase on the Studio XPS 16..
However, my main issue is would it be able to drive my 2 Dell 3007WFP-HC displays?..
I am aware that the Studio XPS 16 has a HDMI and DisplayPort built it.. Provided I am able to get all the conversion cables, could this laptop drive my 2 30" monitors at their native (2560 x 1600) resolution?..
I just submitted an order for a new vaio z and while waiting for it I thought I'd look into getting a nice external monitor for home use. After reading through the forum, I can't find any report of a vaio z owner successfully attaching an external monitor with a resolution of more than 1920 x 1200 (due to no dvi-dl compatibility). Specifically, I was hoping to get a 30" 2560 x 1600 monitor.
Is it safe to conclude that it is impossible to connect a 2560 x 1600 external monitor to my new vaio z?
For some reason, I am having a hard time getting dual displays to work with the m1730.

Would an HDMI splitter work, or are there hardware/software issues stopping that from working.
Does the Latitude E7240 can support two external displays without a dock? Can have one plugged in to the mini displayport and one in to HDMI and output just to these displays?
Or is it limited to just the laptop display and one single external display?
I love the current 1920x1200 LED display on my 1737, but it has developed some dead pixels (not sure how that happens).
I do have complete coverage, and I can get the screen replaced.
I've heard that there are some manufacturers or models of screens that are preferred. Which are they?
I'm doing a bit of research - I'm getting an M1730 as a replacement for a dead M1710 (Cheapest DELL XPS M1730 ever???) .. so I can't really change the spec of the machine until I get it .........

Also their tech support is to dumb to get the info from anywhere else except their own page. (they provided a link to the 1555 model to get the resolution from there... duh).

My questions are, what resolutions are in the 1537 ? I want one with 1440x900 so, is there the posibility to get a 1280x800 one ? or all the 1537 and ATI 3450 come with at least 1440x900 .....
Does anybody know whether is it possible to drive either 2560x1600 or 2560x1440 external monitor with Core-i5 Sony Z HDMI output or docking station?

I want my Inspiron 14z Ultrabook to have two Operating Systems, Fedora (Linux) and Windows 7. Is it possible to use the SSD drive to accelerate the System's performance on both operating system?
Secondly, Can I still restore my machine to Factory settings???
I was wanting to put in a lager hard drive in my system, I noticed that it has a spot for 2 hard drives,
I was thinking about leaving in the factory drive and adding a second drive.
I was wondering if I would have any problems adding a second drive.
I was thinking a 320gig to a 500gig 5400rpm drive.
I just ordered a Vaio Z590 and am deciding what monitor(s) to order to go with it.
Specifically, I was wondering if it would drive a 30" monitor (2560x1600). The 9300m graphics card specs appear to support it, but I've heard that the Z supports only up to 1920x1200. I'm getting the docking station too,
If not, I was thinking of dual 24", but I've read that no one has gotten the Z to work with multiple external monitors either; is this true? In another post someone recommended the Matrox Triplehead2Go, but that doesn't appear to support 2 external monitors at 1920x1200 resolution + the internal screen.
I have an HP Elitebook 6390P; I remember seeing for the Thinkpads someone could remove the CDROm Drive and put a hard drive into this slot and then put into the cdrom drive.
is it possible with the HP Elitebooks?
Just pulled the trigger on a Vaio VGNTZ290NDB for $1,439 on clearance from Sony Style.
Seems like a nice unit.
Question:
This unit comes with a 64GB SSD (1.8" PATA) and a 250GB HDD (2.5" SATA).
Given the age of the model line, I'm assuming that the PATA SSD is not of the same performance level as the new SATA SSDs, e.g., Intel X25-M.
Would it be simple enough to put in an X25-M in place of the 250GB HDD and then make it the boot drive? Or is the system limited to booting from the PATA SSD?
A dual SSD ultraportable would be... well... sweet.
i would like a bit of raid action or a ssd to compliment my 500gb drive but i doubt it has the additional bay and i cant be bothered taking all those screws out......
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've asked Dell but they are clueless..... does anyone know if the Studio 17 laptop can output display to twin 24" screens at 1920x1200?
Ideally I would like to know if it can output a digital signal to both screens?
Dell suggested that it may be possible with a Displayport to dual DVI cable.....
I haven't ordered the laptop yet so would consider any options that would allow dual digital display.... eg. upgraded graphics card or use of a docking station.
Dell sent me a 1647 as a replacement for a faulty 1640 but they didnt install the bluray drive like my 1640 had, and now they said that they are not going to
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have found all of the drivers (including HDMI, Modem, etc.) and am succefully duel booting XP Proffesional 32-bit and Vista Home Premium 64-bit.
If anyone would like a guide with links to drivers i'd be happy to make one, btw, i'm using xp right now
Perhaps some of you have more experience with this than I do, so I thought I'd ask.
I know the 1640 has DisplayPort, VGA and HDMI outs -- my question is this: Can I run two external monitors with this laptop using the outputs --
I'd like to run 2 24" (1900x1200) from the 1640 -- I don't really care if the internal LCD works when I have it plugged it -- I'm just looking for a psuedo-docking solution when I'm at home at my desk
i'm looking to purchase one... i need confirmations.
also where would you get the extra caddy for it?
After reading the m6500 discussion thread it sounds like the consensus is that 1600 mhz memory makes no performance difference. But then a lot of folks seem to have configured their machines with 1600 memory and the below review suggests that the memory will help.
http://www.legitreviews.com/article/842/1/
So to have this fully hashed out, I think we need to answer the below questions:
1) If you order the extreme processor does the BIOS recognize the 1600 mhz memory?
2) Even if it does recognize it does it make a difference?
3) Why did people with the extreme processor order the 1600 mhz memory?
4) Can we fill in the WEI scores for memory using 4 and 8 GB of both 1333 and 1600 memory with the extreme processor?
Surprised to see the pricing of Studio 1558.
i do not understand why dual core i5 processor studio is costlier than quad core i7 studio ?
Is it possible to have a different background/wall paper when running in Dual view monitor mode?

I just want a 2nd laptop that is smaller than the 17" for me and the misses to use. I will probably use Lightroom on it, iTunes, iPhoto, and Internet mostly and want to run the occasional game (nothing to resource intensive).
I just don't want to pay $2500 for a unibody. I would get a plain jane MB but I want a video card.....
It sure does look like that Clevo 18in revealed sometime ago.

Under the hood of the 17.1-inch Firefly we found a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Extreme Quad Core CPU, 4GB of RAM, a pair of ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3870 GPUs running in CrossFire mode, and a 7,200 rpm 250GB hard drive. The Firefly spec sheet said the machine is capable of overclocking, but we didn’t touch the BIOS.
And a MultiTouch trackpad, Backlit keyboard (with m15x-esque customizable colours), Creative X-Fi audio and a Dual Hinge like the HDX 20.
I hate for this to be my first post, but after looking everywhere on the internet and on this site (I've been lurking a while) I'm still at the same place I started with my Studio 15 laptop. I'll try to include as much detail as possible.
I had my laptop plugged into my LCD tv via an HDMI cable as I often do, and when I went to close the laptop to use just the LCD, the tv flashed, showed a blue screen of death for a quick second and then went black. I opened the laptop and it was still on, but the screen wouldn't go on.
I restarted my computer and from there on out it kept making a beeping noise and stalling for a really long time at the "Dell Studio/progress bar" screen. After leaving it at that screen for a while the clicking stop and then it allowed me to access the Boot Options and Setup. Under setup, when I click on the drive under SATA hard drive, it shows something like 10GB and nothing more, and I have no options on the screen .....
Was told that there are a couple of Z690 notebooks with 1366 x 768 resolutions. Is this possible?
