What are these all for?
What are they already taken up by (as in, what's already occupying these spaces?)

Dell :: Studio Internal 14z Bluetooth

Jan 8, 2010

Is it possible to add internal bluetooth to the 14z after the fact? If so, what is the part needed to do this? While we're at it, what about wireless N?

Backstory - Ordered my laptop early December, took delivery mid December. I'm thrilled with the product except for the fact that it doesn't have bluetooth. I thought I had chosen that option, but upon looking at my invoice it appears I didn't. I went back through the customize engine on Dell's website and interestingly enough, I don't see anywhere you can choose bluetooth. Searched their parts website with no luck. Searched Google with no luck. So I tried to email Dell customer service. 3 weeks later, they finally told me to email/call tech support. So I called tech support yesterday. They told me that the wireless and bluetooth internal options are integrated onto the motherboard and have to be specified at the time of order. The only solution she could give me was to return the laptop and re-order it. The problem I voiced with that was that there isn't any way to specify bluetooth (or wireless N for that matter) on the customize page on Dell's website. Of course, she said she couldn't help with that and I needed to go back to customer service. Obviously, I was pretty irate (no cussing though! I kept my cool, but made it obvious I was upset) and she gave me a line that CS's lines were down and I needed to call them back in an hour.

So before I call CS, I'd like to try to get some more information. If you guys can help, I'd really appreciate it. Otherwise, I'm about ready to tell them to send a call tag send this thing back simply based on how terrible their after the sale service has been.

The problem is that Dell doesn't seem to sell it in Ireland. Is there any way I can get it? Is there an alternative adapter to connect a sata drive to the connector present on the laptop?

Dell :: Mini 9 Three PCI-e Slots, Can You Place An Additional SSD In It?

Jun 20, 2009

I was doing some reading on the Inspiron Mini 9 and I understand that it uses a solid state drive in the form of a PCI-e card.

My question is, since the Mini 9 has three PCI-e slots, can you place an additional SSD in it? If you have the wireless LAN then the only other slot available is the Half mini.

I did some browsing and there are Half mini SSD's available. If one had an 8GB SSD could they purchase a 32GB for an 8GB+32GB configuration?

Sony :: How Many Slots For RAM In VAIO SR

Feb 5, 2009

how many sticks of RAM a VAIO SR could hold.

I'm thinking about purchasing an SR with 3 GB (1x1GB + 1x2GB) and just add another 1GB stick (a friend mis-purchased a laptop RAM thinking its a desktop RAM and gave it to me).

However, I'm not sure if there's room in the notebook to insert one more RAM.

Acer :: 8930G - Is There 2 Slots For Another Hard Drive

Aug 29, 2009

I have an 8930g with 320gb hard drive

Is there 2 slots for another hard drive? If so is it easy to open it up to put another in?

Another question is, I have 4gb ram but it seems 1GB is being shared for the video memory, it already has 512mb dedicated which is plenty for me (its the 9600GT card), how do I unshare it? There seems to be no option at all in the bios.

One final question, what is the max ram this laptop is allowed?

HP 13-p111 Nr X2 :: Does Onboard Card Reader Support SDXC Cards In One Or Both Slots

Jan 24, 2014

Does the onboard card reader in my my 13-p111 nr X2 notebook (Win 8.1) support SDXC cards in one or both slots (standard and micro)?  Win 8.1 supports the file system, but my 64GB micro sd card is not being recognized in the onboard slot, making me think that the card reader hardware may not support that format.  If the onboard reader does not , should the notebook still recognize a 64GB SDXC card in a USB card reader stick?  
 
I've looked in the service manual for this X2 notebook and it is not specific about SD 0r SDHC or SDXC support.  Where can I find detailed system specs for this machine?

Apple :: MacPro Usb Slots -NO Space For "plug Ins"

i bought a AT&T wireless usb plug that fits perfectly and works great...Then i bought the highly rated logitech vx nano wireless mouse which comes with a tiny usb plug which could be left in the usb slot...So whats the problem?? both devices cant fit at the same time [/i][/b]on the laptop becuase there is not enough space for the both usb plugs to be occupied. Is there a solution to this?? Are there any adapters that I can use which will allow either one (Preferably the ATT wireless) to be plugged into another slot on the Macpro?

Dell :: Internal Speakers Not Working

Mar 6, 2009

New thread to satisfy people. I don't know why it makes a difference whether a thread is new or old.

I have a Dell E1505 running XP. The headphone jack works but the internal computer speakers do not. Here's what I know:

(1) it's not the speakers. I've swapped an identical set of working speakers.
(2) it doesn't appear to be a software or driver problem. My settings look identical to those of another E1505, and I have tried re-installing drivers several times.

Dell Latitude E7440 :: Can Add A Second Internal HDD Along With SSD

Jan 23, 2015

So I have been talking to the customer care representatives of Dell and they keep giving me different answers for my questions. So I was hoping I could have a more constructive discussion here without being put on hold for hours -_-

1. My E7440 came with a SSD. Can I add a second internal HDD along with the the SSD?

2. If yes, would buying it from a different vendor (say Amazon) and installing it myself void my warranty?

Dell XPS 15 :: How To Disable Internal Drive

Feb 11, 2013

I have a standard internal HDD and a secondary HDD in the optical disk drive bay.The BIOS reports them as HDD (internal) and ODD (drive bay). What does ODD mean? Now in the Boot section the terms are:

•Hard Drive - shows my internal HDD. My secondary HDD does not appear here.

•CD/DVD/CD-RW Drive - is the optical drive. BUT as my secondary HDD is in the optical drive bay will this boot the secondary HDD?

•USB Storage Device - assume this refers to the USB ports

•Removable Drive - what is this? What boots from this?

•eSATA - assume it boots when an eSATA drive when attached

Finally. I know you can move the priority of boot options up and down BUT can you disable options? Eg. if you want to force a boot from a second drive - how can you disable the internal drive? (which you can do on many BIOSes)

Dell :: M1530 Vista 64 Internal Mic Problem

Jan 19, 2009

Just installed Skype and have spent the last hour trying to get the internal mic to work and failed.
It's a Vista 64 install and I've installed the latest sigmatel drivers for Vista 64 from the Dell website. Appears to have installed fine.
I can see the microphone array and sigmatel codec under sound options, and the speakers are working fine, however the mic just refuses to work (sound recorder, skype etc all don't work)

Dell :: E6410 Any Internal USB Ports Or Headers?

May 22, 2010

I'm a bit interested in seeing if I can put the micro receiver for my Logitech mouse somewhere inside my E6410's enclosure.

I've added micro receivers for stuff before to an eeePC 701, because I was able to connect a small USB board to the header on the motherboard originally used for the webcam.

Is there something similar that could be done to an E6410? Anyone tried this before?

Dell :: Brand New , Internal Monitor Crack

Feb 18, 2010

I got my brand new Studio 1558. 11 Hours later, internal screen cracked. Not even touched by myself, sat on my desk unwrapped (I was yet to set it up,

as it was late at night i got it). I turn it on this morning to find the screen was cracked internally, bleeding. Dell are picking it up tomorrow.

I am extremely angry at this. I'm mainly here to see if this is a common problem. I have literally done nothing to provoke this crack. It was opened once.

I did however notice a few mild streaks at the point where this bleeding started, the first time i turned it on. It was only noticeable with pure black.

Dell :: E1705 Internal Sd Card Not Recognized

Mar 31, 2009

Hoperfully somebody can help me out, I am completely out of ideas.

I have an E1705 and am running Vista Home Premium. There are two issues and are most likely related.

1) My internal xD card reader keeps asking me to format a card even though nothing is inserted in there, and to be quite honest I can't even remember the last time I used an xD card.

I have tried uninstalling the device/driver and reinstalling using the most recent as well as even older drivers with no luck ....

Dell :: Not So Efficient 1330 Internal Bluetooth?

Jan 5, 2009

My girl friend has bought Dell bluetooth headset along with 1330. At first the sound was awful, then I reinstalled the bluetooth driver available from Dell support website.

The sound quality has improved a lot but it works only when I sit in front of the laptop with intermittent lag.

The same headset when I use with my HP nc8430 works perfect without any lag for more than ten meters away behind the wall.

Dell :: XPS 1640 Internal Speakers Not Working

May 18, 2010

I've got a Dell XPS 1640. My internal speakers don't work with itunes and most other applications. However, when I ran the Dell diagnostics, sound was produced. Dell tech support told me that its a software problem because there was sound in the diagnostic test.

They checked the drivers etc which are current and recommended that I reformat back to factory settings which is a major hassle. I'm running Vista 64 bit, but do have a Windows 7 update disk which I haven't installed yet. They told me that installing the Windows 7 update wouldn't fix the problem. I've read about disabling IDT (which I've tried) wiggling the inputs e

Dell :: USB? Bluetooth Internal Card On Old Inspiron's (i9300 Etc)

Feb 11, 2010

Does anyone know if the internal Bluetooth card that slots into the underneath compartment on old Dell Inspiron's (like the i9300) uses a USB connection?

What I mean by that is, if I were to chop the plug off the end of the connector cable and replace it with a female usb socket, would I be able to run any USB device off it? I need an extra usb socket for a pretty extreme casemod I'm doing at the moment and it ideally (definitely!) needs to be on the underside of the laptop.
